" Hold my purse!"
I, personally would not have any trouble saying it or doing it!

Virginia:
I agree with you on both comments.
Recently, while shopping in Dress Barn, while the sales girl was helping me to pick out a matching blouse after trying on a new skirt, I wanted to quickly put the blouse up to get a look in a mirror before trying it on and asked the sales girl to hold my purse. She was pleasnt enough and did the task. When I tried on the blouse, she commented that my purse did not match my new outfit and that she had several that would match nicely. It was a nice suggestion, the purse looked nice, I bought it.
After the purchases, I thanked her for her assistance, she smiled and commented, please come back again but remember, to wear black MaryJanes with the new outfit as they would look really nice.
I wound up going to Payless to pick out a pair of shoes and will see her again next week with the new outfit and new shoes to buy something else.

I've held my wife's purse quite often, and seem to enjoy walking around looking at the racks while doing so. I don't know whether others wonder if it is my purse or if I'm holding it for someone. I like to pretend it's mine anyway.

Yeah, Donna, she like most SO's has all the money anyway!!!! Carry that purse girl!

When I go shopping with my wife, I usually end up holding everything!

I don't mind whatsoever.... and it's even better if there is an item or two in the stack for me!

Definitely a plus Paulie
