Does anyone know how much these are going for?
If you go into the Playbill store, they show the price for tote bags for HAIR.
No, not the regular ones they've had for a while. Look at the link, these are different and there are only a few of them.
uncageg, this must be the tote bag you are thinking of:

These ones are $35. The ones that were constructed from the billboard are most likely more expensive, especially since they are so limited.
Me too, which is why I'm wondering just how much. I guess I'll go over there and see next time I'm in the area.

They're also $35 and only available at the theatre.
The reason I thought they would be priced the same as the ones in the Playbill store was because there was no mention of a different price in the article.
I just bought one at the theatre for $35. My bag is number 6/260 and was a part of the "H"!
Heh, I was figuring the lack of price mention meant it was going to be high. But sweet, good to know they are affordable. I think I'm going to go get one this weekend. Hopefully there will be some left. Did you get to choose, or how does that work? Since obviously you aren't able to go through 250+ of them.
That's an amazing idea! Good for them. I won't be in the city for a few weeks....I'm doubting there will be any left!

So, I have to get tickets in order to buy one? I've already seen the damn show twice. I just want a bag.
You should be able to get in just to buy something at the merch table.
I want one so badly! What a cool idea! I hope that I can sweet talk someone into running into the Hirsch to get one for me!

Can someone who is not seeing the show let us know if they're able to get in to get one? I really want one but am not seeing the show anytime soon.
I've never heard of someone be turned away when they say they just want to purchase merchandise. (Any show)
I approached one of the suited security guards outside of the theatre and he escorted me inside to the merchandise booth. This was about half an hour before today's matinee and I was only allowed to choose between three bags for whatever reason. The merchandise girl said that was all she had left, which didn't make any sense considering that I was one of the first people there. She must have been referring to other tote bags that hadn't been unboxed, etc. The bags are $35 each.
Don't mean to sound like a creep, but how cool would the bag with Allison Case be? I would defintely love that one.
this reminds me of that tote bag thread from a couple months ago
Allison Case wasn't on the Times Square billboard.
Also will they let you in to buy stuff during walk-in? I'm seeing a movie at 8:20 tomorrow night but I really would like to get one.
Allison Case wasn't on the Times Square billboard.
Yes she was, my bag is parts of Allison Case. (wow that sounds creepy.)
^Oops, you're right, I think I was thinking of the marquee design which is just the blue. I can see it in my head now hahaha, my bad.

I'm going to be in the city and I may have to take a detour to buy one of these...does anyone know what time they'd let me in to buy one if I'm not seeing the show?
