After around ten years of constant use, including free replacement of all the zips, it’s time to say goodbye to my beloved JanSport Equinox 33 rucksack! I love the bag so much that I actually intended to buy the same one again. It does still exist but I can only seem to find it in a bright red colour.

Whilst browsing I came across what could be the perfect replacment – the JanSport Boost Adrenaline rucksack. It has a laptop compartment.

On Amazon.co.uk it costs the princely sum of £69.99 + p&p. That’s quite a lot I thought and after some further searching I found the same back on Amazon.com for $55.90 + p&p – that’s around £34 at current exchange rates!

Unfortunately I can’t order it from Amazon.com as only certain products qualify for international shipping. With such a price gap I find it even harder to justify spending £70 on a rucksack, even if it is a good one.
