Items only bought in the USA

We were watching a recoreding of Gok's Fashion Fix recently were he had the company of Cilla Black. To my surprise Cilla mentioned that she only bought Jeans from the USA in New York. She also admitted that she once paid 5K for return flights to New York just so she could stock up on Jeans which apparently are £250 a pair.

I have to admit, but for the last 6 years I have not bought one pair of jeans in the UK, only in Florida, to be more specific The Boss outlet in The Millenia Mall. Obviousley we don't pay the sort of flight prices Cilla does.

Do you have any strange shopping habits. Habits where you only buy those particular item from within the USA.

All our Abercrombie gear comes from either New York or Florida. UK prices are so much higher.

I wouldn't go to the extreme of flying over to the states specifically for clothes but while we're there we buy a suitcase full.

Also bags and bags of Osh Kosh clothing for the kids.
