$2??
You're being ripped off. Woolies in Gordon sells them for 99c.

And yeah, they are pretty good Uni bags. But its annoying holding them, while you can't really put it on your shoulder because one handle always slides off.

It depends on how much I have in my bank account at the time.
But in general:

Tops: $50 max. Unwilling to purchase plain cotton singlets or tops for more than $25
Jeans: $150 max.
Jumpers: $80-$100 max.
Shoes: $100 max.

Don't really wear dresses or anything other than jeans.
Will make allowances however. For e.g. a pair of joes jeans for $180 from $360

I hate paying heaps for clothes. Probably coz I live in casual gear.
Usually the most I will pay:
shirts- $30
clubbing tops- $50
jeans/pants- $60 (would have to love them)
jumpers/jackets- $50
shoes- depends on what it is...most I would ever pay (despite my desire for Manolo Blahniks) would be about $100 for strappy heels.

Those fold out wallet ones. Although they're not very strong.
If you want something stronger be prepared to pay $60-$150

Ditto. Anything more just seems excessive.

I generally do not spend much money on clothes unless impulsively buy something, which is not often. My impulse buying doesn't happen on anything $50+ either.

I don't think i have purchased any clothes since about the end of last year when i got a $8 top :p

As long as they keep me warm in winter and cool in summer, i am fine... :p

Going out shirts $150 max

Overall last year I spent a hell of alot of money on shirts. This year I haven't spent as much on clothes, but on other stuff like colognes etc.

Grace, being metro isn't defined by a certain set of stapled guidelines for every little aspect. I'm not a big fan of jeans overall, hence I don't set a high target for them. But I shop for shirts, colognes etc. alot, and I'm pretty confident most people would identify me as somewhat metro. It's not like metrosexuality is characterised by certain firm criterias such as you must spend atleast xxx dollars for this, and you must do this for 1 hour a day etc. to be considered metro.

spending max,. 100 on a pair of jeans is so not metro, you gotta be up to the 300 bracket before you can claim that
perhaps more.

This seems out of proportion to me. Being willing to spend the same amount on a normal shirt as a pair of jeans is funny.*

Normal shirt $25
Going out shirt $60
Shorts $50 (Only have one pair)
Jeans $140
Shoes $150
Jacket $150

-Edit- *Read your post a few down. Makes sense.
