*raises hand* My name is Tater and I hate shopping as well! If I find pants that fit in the waist, they don't fit in the legs because 1) the leg length is too long and 2) I have muscular legs (thanks to cycling) and cannot get them past my quads. So many times I have had to go up a size just to get the legs to fit, then have my mother, the seamstress, alter the waist for me. Short sleeved shirts I do okay, but like Eden, almost every long sleeved shirt I own goes past my fingertips. Grr!
Oh, and what lights my fuse is the sizing differences. What a size four is for one company, is totally different for another. And yes, the sizes do seem to be getting bigger each year.
Cycling goodies, on the other hand, I love shopping for!
