NYT Strands today (game #268) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Strands, game #268, are TOTE BARREL MESSENGER BUCKET DUFFEL CROSSBODY SPANGRAM: HANDBAGS My rating: Moderate My score: 2 hints Full disclosure: I am not an expert in HANDBAGS and struggled to solve today's game, let alone write about it. So don't expect too much in the way of entertaining or enlightening insight here (not that you necessarily get that on any day). So yes, HANDBAGS. Those things you carry stuff around in. Apparently BARREL and BUCKET and DUFFEL and CROSSBODY are all examples, but I didn't know that until now. TOTE and MESSENGER too, but I thought of them more as bags in general, rather than handbags. I accept that I was wrong about this. I solved it by using two hints, then looking for random words, rather than knowing they might be answers. It took a while and was tedious and I'm glad the whole ordeal is over now. If, however, you do know about handbags then I suspect it was a lot more fun. This is all very much my failing, rather than the game's (on this occasion). How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
