Dude, really?

Today I was in a meeting where people got into a conversation about the price of their jeans. The highest cost in the room was $400 and the lowest was $150. I declined to mention that mine cost $4.99.

ETA: In case anyone wants to see what $400 jeans look like, here you go.

I feel ripped off every time I pay $35-$40, but the special cut from Lane Bryant or Fashion Bug Plus, they fit. I'd go naked before I paid $100, let alone $400 for a pair of jeans.

Yeah, I buy the Lane Bryant Red jeans if I can swing it because of the fit issues. But ... yeah, actually that might be the only way I'd pay $400 for jeans, was if the alternative was going naked.
