[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't buy second hand anything. Definitely not clothes. But, I buy new clothes mostly from Costco, Kohls, Target, Macy's, Old Navy, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Amazon, Lands End and Nordstrom Rack. I buy clothes on sale. If I buy something name brand, I will buy it on sale. Like buying NorthFace parkas on sale. I do not buy souvenirs or mementos from my trips abroad. I only buy fridge magnets and anything that can be consumed quickly (chocolate, wine, snacks, cheese, coffee...). I get a haircut every month, but I do all my beauty treatments at home from coloring my hair to skin treatments, waxing, mani pedi etc. I host a lot and I hire a helper for the event but I cook all the food myself because I can control quality, taste and cost. (I am an excellent cook). We do not have pets though we lavish love on our parents's dog. Pets cost a lot of money and also I cannot stand pet hair, smell and taking care of them. I do not pay for lawn treatments. I have seeded clover on top of the existing grass, and reseed every year. I buy my groceries from a number of stores. I am not store loyal at all. My favorite stores for groceries - Costco, Whole Foods, Great Wall (Chinese store), Patel Brothers (Indian store). I will visit Aldis, Target, Walmart, Traders Joe and Giant for miscellaneous grocery items. I buy wine in bulk from Costco in VA. [/quote] Just curious - why don't you buy second hand clothing? Are you averse to it or don't have time to look for it in thrift stores, etc? I have purchased silk Joie tops in Goodwill for 3.99. On online thrift stores I purchased a Club Monaco dress for around $50 (New $400). It looks like it's never been worn. 100% silk and gorgeous. You can't find that quality or those deals in Costco, Target, Macy's, etc.[/quote]
