out of touch with reality
In my little shopping frenzy yesterday, I was in a sports store (getting new running shoes). I saw a cute little pink sports bra. Now normally I teach in a t-shirt/tank top and just fold it up over my abdomen if/when I get warm or want to emphasize rib/abdominal movements...but occasionally I skip the middle step and just wear a sports bra for class. So shoes in hand (great deal btw.) I mosey over to the little pink sports bra. Big time sticker shock.
I guess I've been shopping the discount chains for too long. The last sports bra(s) I got were ... I think ... 3 for $15? maybe 3 for $20. but I think it was 3 for $15.
I haven't been in a mall in forever. If someone wants more than $30 for a pair of jeans I don't even try them on, $20 is my usual speed. And I usually buy t-shirts in the $7-10 range.
I guess that's why those low priced chains attract so many shoppers.
So is it me? or is it them...come on seriously now.. .
$54.99 - yeah - no kidding
