I totally agree, I could never justify that much for clothes. And like you I shop at goodwill, resale and I hit the $1 rack at consignment shop. My perception is skewed, I could get a cart full for the whole family for $100. Thrift stores are like an adventure and I love to hunt for amazing deals there. :)

To the OP, do not feel guilty, sometimes we need to make ourselves a priority and if these jeans made you happy, why not! Congrats on the size SMALL !

I tried the jeans on, I loved the way they fit and I can afford it. My jeans made me happy :) especially since they are 34 inches long and it is very difficult to find tall jeans that fit.

Are you tall Suz? I'm kind of a pants hoarder when I find them long enough I buy them!

I found a pair of jeans that fit me just right and I bought every color in the size I am in AND every color in the next size down. Being tall adds a wrinkle into the pant/jean buying process to be sure!

If I had found them at the consignment store... I would have bought them there. I have no problems buying at thrift stores. I happened to be out with a friend and it was impulse.

I actually returned them today... I decided they were not practical.

Good for you!!! It's so weird to reward myself with something other than food. My rewards for everything pre op was always food. Doesn't it feel good to do something different?

Not quite at goal, but have rewarded myself for my lifestyle changes (so far) with a tattoo and a new motorcycle!

I wish there was a like button here! I love this!i am finally in onederland, and I am going today to get a wrist tattoo I have wanted for a year. It is in Sanskrit, but the English translation is "Desire Becomes Reality". This is to remind me to have purposeful thoughts, and to work hard to bring the right things to me.

Yay for no -food rewards!

Life is a journey, not a destination.
