Rye Miles #13621 Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 This was at a higher end retailer, Dilliards, completely insane it’s not even quilt lined! Not on sale either!
Eyesa Horg Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 Yep, checked out a nice flannel at Farm Way several years back. Was so comfy until I flipped the tag, $154!!! Are you efin kidding me I said and hung it back up! Gawd!
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 Good Grief Charlie Brown!! Duluth Traiding Co has flannel shirts on sale for 40 bucks. Regularly 50 bucks. Even in Rye sizes for 40 bucks.

Alpo Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 It's probably because they are fashionable now. The cool kids - the hipsters - like to wear them. And whenever anything is in fashion, the price goes through the roof.

Cypress Sun Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 Boy, glad I still have two or three fairly new quilted liner ones, we don't have the opportunity to wear them much in Florida. Now, whether or not they still fit is another story! Might have shrunk a little bit over the last year.
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 Bummer. I grew up wearing Pendleton Shirts. The shirts lasted near forever. The base fabric is still made at Pendleton Mills in Oregon, but the fabric is then shipped to Mexico and Central America where the actual shirts are now made. I don't buy Pendleton shirts anymore.
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 I bought that exact shirt and two others (different colors) at Costco last year for about $45 total.
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 I bought some flannel shirts at the outlet mall in San Marcos for $5 each. I'm frugal.
watab kid Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 i think ill wear all the ones i currently own until they are threadbear ....if i live long enough
Tennessee Trapper Tom Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 I hate buying that crap from somewhere overseas. I just bought a light weight zip up hoodie for those mild fall days. It was toted as American made. B.S. after some research I found that they were made in China. Cheap arse thread. I only wore it twice before the pockets started to rip away from the garment. I also bought a pair of Wrangler shorts from the Walmart online site. Size 32 When I got them, they were marked as size thirty two but were actually about a size 36. And the back pockets you could even put your wallet in, as well as the front pockets were only about 2 /12 inches deep. Yup, they were made in China. Except for Duluth and one or two others places I won’t buy online anymore.
Presidio Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Mine just got vacuumed sealed for any future auctions.
Warden Callaway Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 I check the racks at Wally-World in late winter/early spring when they are marked down.
bgavin Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 They are just keeping up with those $100,000 Ford trucks I see on the lots these days. Interestingly enough, in these days of Bidenflation, Kirkland decaf coffee is fully $3 per pound lower than it was at its peak half a year ago. I have 12 3# cans stockpiled in the garage, all of which I paid more than what I paid yesterday at Costco. Good coffee, too. 100% Arabica decaf.

I need to try some of that coffee, but the leaded version. Been pretty happy with most of the Kirkland stuff and Folgers is getting pretty pricey.
bgavin Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Same price, I think We grind our own Hazelnut leaded from WinCo, then mix 1:5 as leaded:decaf. I have to drink straight decaf after heart bypass. Winco brand coffee is cheapest of all in leaded. Check the labels, some of it is 100% Arabica.

Horizontal increase as one gets older, cushions the falls one has and why its harder to get up. So, you on your last belt hole already?
