Clothes spending

How much does everyone spend a month on clothes. I put £50 a month away but I dont spend it every month. I can go months then I have a big spend.

Looking at my expenses spreadsheet for 2008 total spent for a year : £156

My monthly clothing budget is zero, but unfortunatley I look like a scarecrow as a result.

I used to spend thousands, I have it under control now, I still buy a lot but get it mostly second hand!

Charity shops are a great place to find clothes on the cheap. I know people have this thing about being "in season", but you don't need to go buying new clothes every month. Really!

I didnt say I go clothes shopping every month I PUT £50 PER MONTH AWAY.

I just wondered how much you guys spent on clothes and how often.

At the minute, hardly anything! I bought some clothes in January, totalling about £40, with gift vouchers. Then haven't bought any till the other day, which was about £12 (2 Primark tops). When I was at uni I spent about £30, sometimes more a month! Then again I has student loan and wages!

I put away £60 a month, to cover two adults. Both of us are loathed to touch it though and most of our 'casual' clothes would be turned down by the shabbiest scarecrow!
