Backpack
« on: September 12, 2011, 08:14:02 PM »
Anyone have a good suggestion on a backpack?

Needs to have a laptop sleeve, and big enough to hold 3 textbooks.

I like to Victorinox (swiss flags all over), but if you want it more elegant, or more for rugged use, you might prefer others.

Anyone know of any deals on backpacks? I bought one last year at Staples - 100% back in Staples Rewards.

Know of anything similar?

Just looked through this week's flyer. Seems to be dead.

Any other ideas?

EDIT: Looks like Staples is having 50% off this week.

I still need a backpack.
How much should I want to pay. It needs to last two years with reasonable comfort.

I like Roots backpacks.  Id try Marshall's or TJMaxx. You can find some high quality bags at decent prices.

Get one from Eddie Bauer if they still have lifetime replacement.  I've replaced mine a few times over the past 25 years or so.  Current one isn't used as much so I haven't been to EB in a while...
