You could have gotten two bespoke Kiton suits for that. It's good you didn't waste your money at T&A.

Of course not. That wasn't the point though. I'm a spender. If I were to spend the whole day shopping and not find anything, I'd be so fustrated that I'd force myself to buy something, anything. I don't have the will power not to.

On my last couple of trips to NYC, I've gotten frustated that I couldn't find anything to buy.

I've NEVER had this problem in NYC.

I don't think I could go shopping without being prepared to make purchases. There have been occasions when I would leave empty handed, but my intention was to buy something.

Saks had some Brioni on sale too I believe but I can't remember the price as I was rushed, probably around $3500

hey, thanks for the rundown. those prices are pretty tempting for a new kiton shirt, although the economy is beating ****** right now, might have to wait a few months and just pay retail. ugh.
