i'm a shoeaholic, so i think twice about the price when its over $200-- anything under is fair game if i've got the savings for it! :) i generally only buy things a few times a year, but when i do, i end up spending quite a bit. it works out in the long run though- more than me buying whatever's trendy every month. and now i try to buy individual pieces that might cost a bit more but are versatile enough that i can wear them to work, wear them out, etc., and that'll be good quality so they'll last me. and if its something like a winter coat, i'll definitely spend up to $400 on that- toronto gets so cold, i'm not cheaping out on my comfort when its -15! i just had a bit of a shopping spree this last week and i spent about $600 on me and stuff for the apartment. yay! :) and yes i work fulltime.
I bought my first winter coat in nOrth America from Toronto when I was visiting from the US and spent $400-500 on it! I still have that coat!!
