You might have seen the Design House Stockholm Carrie Shopping Basket when I featured it in my Not Your Grandma's Lace Trend Alert, or even snuck a peek of it used as a magazine holder in my very own house. I must admit, I shelled out $44 for the basket from Zinc Details — kind of a lot for my shelter mag storage, but I couldn't resist! When I caught it selling for $37 at Unica Home, I felt a little cheated. Now that I've seen it selling at the Container Store for $29.99 (what a steal!), I really just feel as dumb as a rock. But, perhaps this means I can snatch one up to use as an actual shopping basket. : )

looooove them
1I love these! I have the bike basket version which also comes with the strap so you can ride to the store and just bring your basket in with you.
2These are cute. I want some of these! I would take out the nylon and gets some pretty ribbon (Albeit strong) and hang them from my ceiling in my room for storage.
3Ooo Casa I remember when you posted the magazine rack and I loved it! But of course -- welcome to short attention span theater -- I forgot to get one. Def gonna pick one up now as I have to hit the Container Store for some other things and have been procrastinating. Don't really need yet another grocery bag (I've been using them since the 80's and have quite a cute collection) but I *know* I want to use it in the house somewhere... perhaps for my weekly flyers, it'll look tres chic in the kitchen! I always feel dumb when something turns up cheaper too, but think of it this way, you've already gotten so much use out of the one you purchased so you're money was well spent.
4I originally saw this as a bike basket and quickly became obsessed with it. I love the new price and the alternative use. YAY!
5its a nice blog about shopping baskets.
