Budgets are an important part of our lives. They allow us pay our bills, enjoy the niceties of life, plan for the future, and be prepared for the unexpected.

No matter your income level, you likely have a clothing budget. At the very least a preference for how you choose to spend money on clothing.

And if I asked, your likely answer is that you prefer to purchase the highest quality clothing.

And that is an excellent response.

Now you all know my little failing in life when it comes to clothes I can go to the dark side — quantity over quality.

But I suspect I am not alone.

And you know what fuels me / us? When our quantity purchases are perceived as quality items.
