chamarisco

A lead bag would be ase, box or bag containing novel products on the market; by placing it on the counter, the retailer intends to attract new customers. Seria um artigo-isca em Pt, um chamarisco, what we commonly refer to as a come-on, a lure, in English.

Please note: Lead from the verb to lead, not the heavy metal.

bolsa, sacola

pelas referências q encontrei, há uma variedade de tipos de "lead bags". Creio q não existe um termo específico em port. Em suma, parece ser um tipo de bolsa para carregar "bugiganças" do dia-a-dia

Malas/Bolsas forrados de chumbo

Realmente falta mais contexto. Poderia ser várias coisas diferentes. Achei estas outras opções:

1) Pochete com alças ajustáveis

2) Malas/Bolsas forrados de chumbo. (do tipo das que protegem os filmes dos X-rays dos aeroportos. leia abaixo.

Steve Elson, former FAA investigator: "We did use the lead-lined bag because it's impossible to miss. It's simply the most basic x-ray test you can do."

The I-Team packed their suitcases with lead-lined bags, commonly used to protect film. The airport x-ray machines can't see through them so unless the screeners look inside, they don't know whether the lead bags contain film, a gun, or enough box cutters to arm a dozen terrorists.

The lead bag also hides whatever is beneath it in the suitcase, so the screeners are supposed to remove the lead bag, and run the luggage through the x-ray again. But, on each of our ten passes, the screeners failed the test. Twice, the suitcase just sailed on through. The rest of the time, the screeners found the lead bag, but did not search the suitcase properly. http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/news/iteam/022603_iteam_screeners...
um abraço e bom trabalho

dear airmailrpl:
\"The expression \'go down like a lead balloon\' has been around for a while and was in common English usage prior to the 1960s. It was in using a variation of \'go down like a lead balloon\' - meaning the sense of to crash/fall to the earth/be very unsuccessful\".
Well, it\'s pretty clear that this is not the point, right?
Peer comment(s):

neutral airmailrpl : sure it is not a lead baloon??

well, in the context the asker has stated, yes, I'm sure it is not about a lead balloon, provided the following definition: please see note above.
