Were you floored by the fact that they spent a fortune on the only suit they had...or that they had a collection of expensive suits?
All my suits come from Brooks Brothers (mid range $, but still quite expensive), but they'll probably get worn 200 times before being retired. My dress shoes generally cost about $300, but I have one pair of Johnston & Murphy's that are in their 10th year of wear (I've sent them back to the factory twice for refurbishment at a cost of $125 and they come out looking like new, but feeling comfortable they've been worn for years).
For me, work suits are a necessary expense, so I stick conservative and make them last as long as I can. On the casual side, I'm not quite as conservative, but my only wacky indulgence is socks - I LOVE crazy socks!
LoriO, it's great that you (and the girls) had such a fun experience. It's rare these days that anyone can actually have a good "retail service" experience...AND...I LOVE YOUR AVATAR!
