Suit Bargain! Empty Suit Bargain!

Post  kr15 Mon Jun 14, 2010 3:09 am

We've been looking at buying steve a suit for the wedding as to be honest he needs a new one anyway (his trousers are too short which makes it hilarious when he wears it, lol).

Went in M&S to look at some and found a lovely one for £70. Great! We mentioned this to my dad and his best man and his best man has agreed he would like a new one so he's going to buy a matching one, AND we've offered to buy my dad one as he could also do with a new suit (and he has funded the wedding). So looked online last night and they're on offer! Buy 2 suits for £100!!

So Steve is asking around his mates to see if any want a suit for £50 seeing as we're buying 3 Very Happy So thats 3 whole new suits for £150!

Then started looking around for waistcoats as he wants a posh one.

Spent a few hours on ebay and found these guys: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Formal-Tailor

Then realised they do a package: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ivory-Scroll-Waistcoat-shirt-Cravat-34-56-Pack-3-/110546429617?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Wedding_Clothing&var=&hash=item5f7628e143

So thats £42 for the shirt, cravat, waistcoat and hanky!

So all in for £90 we can BUY and KEEP an entire suit with all accesories!!

PLUS we're going to mention it to my brother as he's getting married sometime in the next few years to see if he wants our waistcoats once we're done with them.

We're either getting our suits from M & S or Next, but we're getting the £99.00 ones.

Have you had a look at the £50 ones in the shops?

I didn't want to rain on your parade.... the £50 ones dont look style or quality as nice as the others.

We had initially thought of saving by doing this too!!! We are now either getting in the M & S sale (I need 6 adult and one child suit) or I will be getting up at 4am to do the Next sale when it happens!!!

Best men were worse than the bridesmaids for me! Honestly, you would have thought I was asking for a kidney, I just wanted an hour to get them measured for kilts!! Very Happy
