just got this ad in my email for T shirts.

Shop the perfect new T each month
ONLY $29.99 each + FREE Shipping

$30 is about the most I have ever spent for a new item of clothing, and that was a long winter coat, about 30 years ago.

Prices are better and there is MUCH more variety in the thrift stores. :wink: ;)

I won't pay more than $10 for a new t-shirt. I agree the thrift shop is better.

I find it totally amazing what some people pay for articles of clothing. I agree, I prefer Goodwill and yardsale prices much better.

$30 for a t-shirt? only if it's straight off a (good) rock star complete with certificate of authenticity.

I average about $10 for t-shirts. I get mine at Kohl's (when they are on sale).

Went to buy my one year DGD something for Fall. I could not believe the prices for something that she will grow out of in a few weeks.
