I got an Kohl's coupon in the mail yesterday. It was a spend $10 save $10. So I was able to pickup a jean deal.
Two pair jeans for $25.00, subtract the coupon that comes to $7.50 plus tax each.
I need one more pair for him. So far I have gotten:
1 pair clearance Kmart (a while back) $1.80
2 pair Wal-Mart $7.50 each
1 pair Wal-Mart $10.88
2 pair Kohls $7.50 each
I need one more pair since I need 7 pairs to start him for school. I do laundry once a week on the weekend, usually Saturday. I plan to have him wear his patched/holey pairs on the weekend. On the weeks that I have to work on the weekend It usually takes me until Tuesday to get to the laundry so that is my I need 7 pair.
I have checked everywhere including thrift stores and consignment shops but because DS is slim and MUST have adjustable waist since he cant wear a belt due to his medical condition it is very difficult. Funny how I feel the need to defend spending $10.88 or $7.50 on a pair of jeans and most people drop $25-$30 on a pair of jeans without thinking twice.
I know when we buy for DH tall and skinny we spend whatever it cost to get his size. Luckily he has put on some weight in the last year so we have been able to find his size at Wal-Mart; the only down size is we some times have to check back daily for a couple weeks until we can buy them since he is a uncommon size they get in less of his size. They are $25.98 a pair and with shopping experiences we just pay the price and dont even think twice.
school shopping almost done.
