      Not OP. I have 2 jobs. Shit’s getting stupid expensive and I’m glad I went on a 5 year plan to build a timeless wardrobe and I’m nearly done with it.

      Quality parkas and wool overcoats jumped to 1000-1500 Euro, which is like, the average monthly wage in my country. I have no idea how this is a sustainable business model, nearly everything doubled in price.

    you literally answered it.
    why is food expensive? EVERYTHING is expensive.
    I dont know geo economics well enough but we had a pandemic where the world turned off, ukraine and russia are dueling it out, russia has been shut off.

    supply chains have been bottle necked, labor, LABOR is hecked.
    literally go to a restaurant in the city, no one is working.
    no one is paying more for it.

    Because we needed to shut down the world over the flu. Also we need to fight Adolf Putin, and if that means a higher cost of living then so be it. When over paying for something next time try saying "take that Putler" out loud to make yourself feel better.

      Because of the brave freedom fighters of Ukraine. You’re not a racist bigot are you? We NEED to stop Putin even if it means printing trillions of dollars and destroying the economy to do it
      Also there was a flu that made people sick for a couple days so we had to shut down the world and print trillions more dollars to stop it.

      >t. seething polcels trying to blame anything but post-Covid supply chain.
      In 2020, a certain funny orange man decided to just give away shitloads of money because of Covid. Then the next funny ice cream enjoyer decided that it’s time to do the same yet again, all while industries had to adjust their prices to the post-Covid economy. While ruskies stupid invasion of Ukraine caused some issues, long before that, China couldn’t start working again because of the neverending lockdowns and every country in the world decided that giving away money because Covid is a good idea. All of this shit accumulated and here we hecking are.
      Nice try though.

    What others said, plus China shut down for a while with its zero-covid policy which caused supply issues because most clothes (Uniqlo included) are made in China. You should check out Gap and BR for cheap essentials. They sometimes have really good sales. I last copped BR chinos for $20. You’d have a hard time finding something like that at Uniqlo.

      yeah, anyone who says anything other than this doesn’t know what they’re taking about. the fed threw around cheap money like it was going out of style and now they’re trying to put the cat back in the bag so we get inflation *and* an incoming recession.

        I’ve been hearing about the upcoming recession since like 2015. Even the hecking rappers were mentioning how it’s totally coming bros, just you see!

        b***h interest rates had been 0% for decades.

        You’re hecking stupid if you think the MS is the primary driver of inflation.

        During the pandemic the influx of money went to shit bc no one was working (at least people that do actual real work, not software engineers saving money instead of spending it like hecking gays).

    How much money do you niggas spend on clothes? You should be carefully considering everything you buy (within reason) so you don’t end up with shit you dont wear.
    It is a shame thrifting has become so mainstream that it’s harder to find deals now, still if you put in just a bit of effort cheap clothes aren’t impossible to find
