Do you shop in the Sales?

The prices of clothes is soaring high these days, a little flimsy top can set you back £50. I do try to browse through the sales and do manage to find some decent clothes still in great condition and at a fraction of the price. But there is the downside, fashion moves so quickly, so that brilliant top that you've bought at such a bargain price will be so 'last year' by the time you wear it, I used to work in a fashion clothes shop and also shop extensively at other fashion clothes stores, so I would know which lines were coming and going, and every time I met someone I would mostly recognise where the'r top had come from, so would you still shop in the sales, if people knew exactly where you got you clothes and when?

During hard times like these, especially here in our country, we almost have a sale every month. And its quite really good because there's really a big difference from the original price. Never mind if it is a little out of fashion. I'd be happier knowing I bought it at a reasonable price. Plus factor also because you'll be able to afford and wear quality clothes. ;)

Yes i really do. But sometimes those items that are being sale are those items that no one's gonna take an interest on buying. And on my city, some sale items are just a hoax because they double the real price on the tag and they will just say like 50 percent off but the real thing is you just get the items on its real price if you buy it.

Oh yes, that really annoys me and I think it's very dishonest... double and raising the price and then apparently reducing it by 70% etc. That is really mean... I have seen many items that look as if they've been imported from developing countries and hhave only cost them pennies and they have a 500% mark-up price...and then keep reducing it down to 90% off, and they still would be making a profit...
