I do know that one friend I have thinks that my propensity to pick up deals at Value Village is over the top. He is a lifelong friend and a recently retired cop who has a great pension and he and his wife were each over 100k income for most of their lives. I don't have a pension but we are very comfortable. The best T-shirts I have are from VV and I tend to wear many of my old T-shirts from runs or sports tournaments well past there anticipated lifespan so a few frayed collars. I know DW is on my side as a couple of weeks ago I tried to retire a T-shirt from the mid-80s to the garage rag bag but I found it neatly folded in my T-shirt pile the other day. I definitely picked the right spouse!
