Accessorizing - rented purses come with matching DS units
Nintendo has just announced that it is teaming up with the purse rental site From Bags to Riches to promote the DS. From Bags to Riches customers visiting the site to rent a Coach, Gucci, Juicy Couture, Louis Vuitton, Prada or Tory Burch bag may take advantage of a free, 30-day DS rental. Once the rental period is done, you return the purse and bag to From Bags to Riches. The promotion has just begun, and will run until the end of 2008.
There are some limitations. The company isn’t going to allow you to choose any DS and any purse. You first visit the promotion page to look over the DS combination packages - metallic silver and New Super Mario Bros, metallic rose and Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir, crimson and black and Brain Age 1 & 2 or Crosswords DS, cobalt and black and Nintendogs or onyx and Mario Kart DS. You then go down and click on one of the six purse brands featured below. When you choose a purse, there will be an option to select your DS rental.
It really isn’t a bad deal. The purse rental fee for the featured bags range from $34.95 to $299.95, depending on the brand and style. Imagine how nice a cobalt and black DS would look in a Prada Tessuto, and then getting to play and use it for only $34.95.
