    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).

    um, no thanks. I don't spend that much on T-Shirts. Way out of my price range.

    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.
