Me too... I really wanna grab that gunmetal gingham but when I bought my scholar tartan at retail it went on sale 2 weeks later.

Ehhh it's $59, who cares. Maybe it goes down to $30 bucks or so, maybe it sells out. The $25 or so in savings isn't a big deal. Now if I knew for an absolute fact that it would be say $30 in a month, than sure I'd wait. But it probably won't be, so bite the bullet and get it

I already did. I HAVE NO SELF CONTROL. But with the student discount it actually wasn't so bad. My final purchase for this fall will be a W+H flannel. Who needs college textbooks, right?

well i was planning on getting the scholar tartan, but when it went on sale it was only available in L and XL.

If you still have the item code, a lot of times it will pop back in stock. I was able to pick up some other cheap shirts with my gunmetal that weren't in stock a week ago.

The difference between $60 and $30 is huge for the unemployed student. $30 is a week's worth of food.

Normally I feel this way too, but two things this fall: 1) the s/s secret washes in my closet were starting to feel really old; and 2) they do look very good this fall, especially the tartans, i.e., I couldn't wait.

I figure when they go on sale I'll pick up some extra ones that I'm less intensely interested in, some of the plain colors. But I couldn't see myself getting into fall w/out something more interesting to wear.

Must mean the coupla criticisms here. That's all.

what do you mean by really old? you're tired of them or they're wearing out?

Tired of them. Too spring/summerish, been there/done that-ish. They're still in great shape.

shit you're right...now i feel tired of mine too.

Yep, I have the grey one and it rocks.....need to get it slimmed down though asap.


That, my friends, is an abortion.

Actually, if someone wants my grey flannel in a medium, I guess I'd sell it and just buy a small. I've only tried it on, but tags are off.

where the hell do you eat? I spend about 50 a week on food easily.

i felt guilty buying my webster tartan at retail with student discount knowing that it'll probably be on sale soon

Three meals a day of ramen is only $0.75.
