What's your best recent deal?

That's an easy one: a beautiful Geoffrey (Tailor) argyle in like-new condition, that fits (almost) perfectly for 100USD from David Pope. It sells for 225PND on his website, so I feel pretty good about the deal.

Sorry Doc,

I figured it was over $2,500.00 in stuff. I also purchased 2 jackets from Martin's Uniforms, they were brand new Waiter's Jackets 1 Black and 1 White for $5.00 each.

Doc,

I purchased my fist kilt this past March, before St. Patty Day. After I joined a Parade Krewe called the Shamrocks. My first purchase was from Sports Kilt for $350.00 a leatherneck kilt, sporran, hose, shirt, flashes, sash, belt, buckle and sgian Dubh....

Then a member of my Shrine gave me three MacQueen Kilts, all needing alittle repair. Then the big find all that stuff for $600.00. Since then I bought a Prince Charlie, two dinner jackets. I also have a Royal Stewart that was givin to me by a friend. I have an order for two new kilts from Frugal Corner.

My best recent deal?

Membership in a group that spans the globe. It's a great resource for a wide variety of information. I have learned much there. Far from being a stuffy or dry academic place it resounds with the merriment and goodwill of it's fellowship. Indeed I have found many friends there.

The cost?

Why nothing, save following a few rules to insure a pleasant place I can be happy to share with my young son and daughter.

X Marks the Scot remains the best Kilt deal I have ever found.

Cheers

Jamie

Mine:

$3 Blue British Commando Sweater at Goodwill. Still smells like the PX.

$6/yd Douglas Tartan from Fraser and Kirkbright was pretty sweet too!
Thanks Gordon.
