[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't shop unless we need something. But I have no problem spending $50+ on a pair of jeans that I love, or a Lululemon sports bra for DD because that's what she really wants and will wear it once a week. I consider it wasteful to buy a bunch of stuff that you don't love. I buy fewer, nicer things for my family. It doesn't seem to cost any more than buying a bunch of cheap, trendy stuff and we feel good wearing the items.[/quote] The problem is a lot of people confuse “more expensive” with “nicer.” The two are not the same. Teens in particular have not learned this yet.[/quote] Nobody is confused by this concept. When you're paying more, you expect higher quality. [/quote] Almost every is fooled by branding. Evidence of it it’s all around us. It’s not nicer simply because you paid more. The lululemon belt bag is not any nicer than Amazon dupe. Aviator nation sweats are just…sweats. [/quote]
