Don't laugh but it's been awhile since I've bought underpants, tall warm-lined winter boots..

I stocked up on a ton of underpants a few years ago. So today, I was abit stunned by the prices just for ordinary underwear. Underwear that is sturdy and lasts abit longer than string bikinis, etc.

And just ridiculous to find warm, fleece/fake fur lined knee high boots for winter. To protect against -25 degree C winters here. At $300.00 to $400.00CAN per pair. I'm really fussy here: no parachute material, no lace-ups (snow will wiggle through in deep snow), no suede (it'll get crapped out in slush, etc.), etc.

Methinks women are just sitting ducks for being ripped off by the fashion capitalists.
