With today's pricing, you can maybe get one pair of jeans... MAYBE... T-shirts, yeah, Walmart has good pricing. Nice jeans though, not even fancy ones, those can cost a bit.

There are TONS of stores that have jeans for $15. Where the hell do you people live? I'm guessing you're not the smartest shoppers...

Ok, I go to almost any store in the malls in my area. I don't go for anything special, but lets face it, clothes are effing expensive.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

idunno how to rate this, i get you want new clothes but i mean, c'mon. i can afford clothes but i only spent like $25 on a couple things this year because i knew that i didn't really need it. the economy's shit- be happy with what you got, man.

It depends on how much you NEED the clothes.

That's selfish. Those fifty dollars could feed half the kids in Africa.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I get what you're saying but half the kids in the entire continent of Africa? Sorry, but that's a bit of an over exaggeration. But yes, I never understood why people felt they had to spend so much money on clothes. "I'm going to spend 60 bucks on a shirt that says HOLLISTER" WTF?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That entire statement about Africa was a joke. Haha? I was just using that to exemplify the selfishness and how other people would love having fifty dollars.

My jeans cost 55 each; Hah. & Chill out guys it's a post, no need to get allll fucking mad about everything.

Oh, were you expecting sympathy? I haven't gone back to school shopping since I was in fifth grade. And I'm a sophomore at Auburn. I would be ecstatic to have my mom to give me $50 to spend on clothes.

It's sad that you're complaining. Some people can't buy any clothes. $50 is a lot to some people.

Everybody has clothes. Law of public Nudity anyone..?

I spent 200 dollars on like two pairs of jeans; a sweatshirt; and like a few shirts. 50 dollars is not a lot when a shirt costs like 17.

It's all about shopping smart. Go straight to the clearance area or something if you wanted to buy like ten shirts. Just a suggestion ^^

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Shirts cost anywhere from 5-200$. So, if you're expected to get 3 shirts, a jacket, some pants, ect. Then yeah, you're screwed. I get cheap clothes with an occasional visit to Hot Topic.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Let's see, I went shopping today for "back-to-school". My mom said I could buy clothes and anything else and she'd pay, but guess what? I bought a $9 shirt that I wanted and a white t-shirt that I needed for tennis. With my own money. Why did I not spend a ton? Because I'm not a greedy biotch and feel that my closet is already full enough, and I can survive without buying another truckload. If you really want to buy something, use your own money.

Kohl's clothes are expensive, 50$ there is 2 jeans and a shirt.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I'm pretty sure my whole wardrobe is from Kohls and I haven't spent over 80 dollars on it. Hmm. Weird.

Not if you shop in clearance. You can still get cute things that are more reasonably priced.

Hey every single person on here. Who gives a shit if someone on here wants to spend 600 dollars on clothes?! That doesn't make them greedy. They just put their money towards clothes instead of other MATERALISTIC things. Um iPods anyone? Laptops? Cell phone? A pet?If anyone critiqueing his spending has any of those things they should shut up right now. Because it's just ad expensive.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

(duck, Anon) i love how you people are being so hypocritical if you actually had 50 to spend on clothes that are supposed to last you a year you would be screwed to, i think in your mind you think it is alot but i went and bought one pair of jeans and you know how much it cost? 80 dollars. i think you need to wisen up people and really see that things arent as cheap as they appear.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

but you don't NEED to buy such expensive stuff.

She's being materialistic, but at the same time, I do see her point. $50, in this period of time is not a lot of money to last clothes for a whole school year.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

(Anonymous) No i didnt say that she NEEDED to i said that it is understandable how she is upset at this amount of money

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I just bought a bunch of shirts at Charlotte russe for $3 each! $50 isn't a lot for school shopping. That would suck.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Ok, I think we can understand this much. 1. OP may have grown and wants new clothes to impress peers at school. If going into high school, this becomes important to the average person, as they want to make a good impression. 2. The clothes OP wants are not the t-shirts you get at your average Walmart. She wants something nicer than that. 3. More users agree than disagree at the moment in time I'm writing this. 4. If you know the value of the american dollar, you'd know that doesn't get a whole lot. I mean, I live in a small family, and $50 is a struggle to stretch. Not impossible of course, but difficult. 5. People that say that it's easy to stretch the money most likely didn't do their back-to-school shopping at the dollar tree or Walmart, so they really can't say much.

Where I live everything is uber expensive and you can NOT get enough clothes for an entire school year for $50, but you should still appreciate what you have. Seriously, don't come complaining on amirite.

To all of you who think you're so smart: I'm 13, I can't get a job. I don't get an allowance because my family believes that since we're a family we help each other without expecting anything in return. And $50 dollars cannot feed half the children in Africa. Maybe if they each got half a grain of rice. And rice isn't very filling. Now if I could use my own money, I would. But all the money I have is found on sidewalks. And I already got my school clothes, so you guys can quit bitching

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I do get that $50 isn't that much money. I was just pissed because it was YOU that was "bitching" about money. Since you don't get money that often, wouldn't it make sense for you to appreciate it when you do get it?

HAVEN'T YOU EVER HEARD OF OUTLETS?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I only had $30 for back to school clothes and I didn't have a lot of clothes to begin with. Those $30 were mine from babysitting. I tried getting a job all summer, but adults are applying everywhere because the economy is still so slow right now. $50 dollars isn't a lot, but it's enough. You don't need hundreds of outfits. You go to school a maximum of 5 days a week. You need maybe six or seven outfits. :/
