TV Ad, Clothes By The Month

[walkinghorse]

New one for me, for $60/month, they will send you you new clothes every month!
Guess being a millennial leaves you too busy to make choices?
In my case, old and retired, clothes choices are at a minimum, jeans, tee shirts in the summer, same tee shirts and flannel shirt in the winter. After 13 years had to buy a new Carhartt jacket, as the old one was mostly duck tape patches and new holes. Got my exact size, 2xl tall, on ebay for less than $60, free shipping!
For Christmas, my son got me a hoodie, in case I want to be in step with his generation? Works well under a Carhartt on colder, windy occasions.

My husband might order that service for me, just so I stop asking him to keep me company when I clothes shop.

My wife retired in Jan., so she was donating most of her work clothes to the Salvation Army.
She got a new pair of Carhartt coveralls delivered today, her old ones were worse than my jacket, some heavy socks were delivered the other day, so maybe clothes shopping is over the net now?

.... so maybe clothes shopping is over the net now?

Sounds like wishful thinking on your part.

She might be letting you rest up for an overnight shopping trip to Chicago. There must be some Christening, wedding, birthday, graduation, etc. that she NEEDS a new outfit for.

The hoodie/carhartt combo is great even to -40 degrees. When warmer just unzip jacket. Solves the airy sleeves on the jacket.

Guessing Mom stopped laying them out every morning.

Wow! New clothes every month?? Does that include skivvies?

I'd never have to do wash again!

I was a road warrior a long time ago (another life). Didn't own a house or pay rent. Company paid for hotel, rental, airfare, etc. Just traveled from one install to the next.

One of the ladies I worked with would buy a new wardrobe every month, when we arrived for a one-month install. Then she would donate to a place of her choosing when we left the install, at the end of the month. And do it all over again at the next install.

Different way of thinking and living.

Carhartt coveralls and a Carhartt jacket.

Isn't that what they call the "Hawkeye Tuxedo"?

My every day costume consists of Wrangler jeans and T shirts, unless
something out of the ordinary I need to go to. I like short sleeve T shirts
when weather is decent and long sleeve otherwise. Which brings me to
my subject. I like the slightly longer shirts for concealed carry. I wear
2XLT. I like the fit of Duluth but don't think they wear well. Berne is a
little better. The best for wear is Carhartt, but their 2XLT is a couple of
inches too long. Their 2XL is about an inch too short. I know. I need
to get a life. Right?

No. You're in the exactly right place.

Parallel lives, perhaps it should be 'we' and 'lives' ?
