I'm guessing that everybody has their own limit to what they would spend for a certain something.

Usually my goal is to spend less than $20 per item if I'm sale/clearance surfing, but then when I go to the mall and walk into French Connection, I can spend $80+ on a shirt or dress without even blinking an eye but when I look at my bank account later, I always feel slightly guilty.

What are your limits?

I'm currently debating whether I should get this pair of sunglasses from Armani Exchange. I tried them on at the store and really liked them but held off... they're $70 and my limit's usually $30 for accessories like sunglasses.

Blah, decisions.

WTF Jarius? I'm dissapointed. $200 is the max you'll go on shoes? You do know most of my shoes are well over $300 right? I though you were a true player man. Man was I wrong. Sigh..
