Last year most of my budget went to: 1.  Footwear 2.  Outerwear 3.  Jeans This year I am not expecting to buy more outerwear but I will be buying more footwear and that is a big chunk of my budget.   rachylou on "Which item do you spend most of your money on?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-item-do-you-spend-most-of-your-money-on#post-2116206 Fri, 24 Apr 2020 02:21:58 +0000 rachylou 2116206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ A pair of boots is probably the most money I’ve laid down on a single item, but the thing I buy most often is socks! I don’t get rid of old socks. I just buy more!

I’d say, in no particular order, that I prioritize spending on: 1. Bras 2. Haircuts 3. Shoes 4. Coats/toppers 5. Pants/jeans Those are the categories that I prioritize- not that I’m buying the most expensive of everything, though, and I do stalk items and shop sales. I don’t need any clothing right now, but those 5 areas are the bones of my wardrobe. I guess I should put on a shirt and underwear, too...

Fixed expenses of keeping a home going (no mortgage, however taxes, insurance, utilities) 2. fixed expenses of keeping a vehicle going 3. Groceries (4 adults) 4. sports and recreation (memberships, lessons, equipment...includes music and hobbies) Clothing/fashion is 5-6% of take home income (pension - I’m retired) I’m a budget fashionista, but I won’t compromise when it comes to footwear.  Winter outerwear as well - a good winter coat is an investment piece.   Staysfit on "Which item do you spend most of your money on?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-item-do-you-spend-most-of-your-money-on#post-2115990 Thu, 23 Apr 2020 11:30:12 +0000 Staysfit 2115990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1.  Housing/mortgage/ home maintenance 2. kids education/ tuition, room and board 3. car payments, repairs, gas and insurance 4.  Food and entertainment (ie.
