    I'd say so, andersonsonson, if Primark/charity shops are used for clothes, if Sports Direct are used for trainers and if Shoe Zone are used for shoes and so on. You could also do what l do sometimes and ask for clothes as presents, e.g. l'd like this item in this size please, that kind of thing.

    I don't add up all the price of all the clothes I buy over the year, but I'd say about £100. I've never been one for spending a lot of money, and I've never bought or worn designer clothes.

    I would say I spend about £600 - £700 a year on clothes. That includes things like basics such as underwear etc, new clothes I want, treating myself. Maybe slightly more actually!

    I still have plenty of old clothes to wear out so i wont to by any more for the next few years.

    I find how much you spend on clothes depends very much on you social/work life.

    I used to work in the city before and would go out a lot before and it was important to stay fashionable and wear different outfits all 5 days of the week. Now that I have a web hosting company and work from home I don't have any face to face business meetings, so I just wear complete garbage.

    Probably about £100 per month. Sometimes more sometimes less.

    One teen I know refuses to spend any more than £10 on a pair of jeans for himself so budget buying can be done.

    Last year I spent quite a lot (approx £1000) It it been a few years since I spent a fair bit on clothes, so I pretty much replaced my existing wardrobe.

    I'd have to say around £1500 - £2000 on average. I'm a sucker for good quality clothes.

    My initial thought was about £100, but it might be more realistic to say about £200. Shoes can account for a fair bit and I will only buy Levi jeans, because they seem to be the only ones that fit me properly. Talking of which, I think I'll have to start a thread about them.

    Every two or three months I'll spend about £200 on new clothes. More at the beginning of the spring and autumn seasons though.

    I don't but expensive clothes though. I'm rubbish at taking care of them and usually dislike them after a few months anyway.

    I'm quite happy to spend £60 on jeans and over a hundred on boots.

    I wouldn't really like to say tbf. Probably £500-£600 per year but it's never usually designer items, more like black trousers/jeans (since there a staple) & the rest.
