.....To get a brand of clothing? Really, this is a serious question. I ask this because I have just read on the page of an extremely popular brand of little girl's clothing, that "fans" of this brand will go as far as paying for flights from interstate, to attend a market, in the hope of picking up these items! And I'm shocked.
I am guessing that this now confirms that I am not a "brand snob"? I have never been overly worried about where I have bought my clothes from, nor my children's. It still irks me, even after ten years of being together, that my husband prefers to wear branded clothing - whether it be sports socks or t-shirts. And what is irking me even more, is that I now have a teenage boy who is becoming more and more aware of the so-called "importance" of wearing or owning branded items. Don't get me wrong - I understand the pressure kids are under to feel like they fit in, and are not looked upon as "dorks" lol. So we were lucky to go to a huge warehouse sale for a surf/skate brand earlier this year, where we got almost $1500 worth of clothing etc for the whole family for around $250! Can't look a gift-horse in the mouth.....
So, what's your take on this? How far would you go?
