you know its really funny how when things come up at home, it ineviably comes up on 4WT. Hubby & I just had a conversation about me only bargain shopping for anything for me. I am short & have ALOT of trouble finding clothes (esp Jeans or pants) to fit me. It was no where near the designer prices you were speaking of but I refused to pay $35 for a pair of Mudd jeans I loved but would have had to bring home, cut off & hem. For one I will not pay that much for something for me esp. since I don't work so I just sit at home most of the time. Second I do not see paying for something I have to bring home & alter. It usually takes away from the fit of the jeans anyway. He just doesn't get that. Although he did come from a family who was pretty well off & we always had to struggle. I think that may be a big part of why we see things differently. I would not pay the prices for the desinger clothes even if money wasn't an issue. I agree with the other ladies. Too many things the kids need & want, things I want for my house & I would rather put the money aside to save for our own house someday.
