How much do you spend on a Shabbos robe?

Posted: Mon, Mar 19 2007, 11:50 am Post subject: re: Shabbos robes

Around $150. I always want the ones that are much more expensive, but I can't stomach the cost.

$20- $40. anything more is too expensive for me

where do you find ones $20-$40? Shocked

two years ago I saw a sale in BP 3 robes for $100, I bought 2 and my sil bought one. that's in that price range, I guess, but that was a special sale before Pesach. I want to buy another robe for Pesach, but I can't get to BP in the next few weeks.

I only get a new robe every few years. 3 years ago I bought my robe for $150. a few months ago I got another one, also $150. but its one of the only things I wear on shabbos adn I don't spend $$ on other shabbos clothes or suits. so now I have one winter and one a little more summary that also is good for maternity.

When I was engaged I bought a robe for $150. I wear it every shabbos. It went through five pregnancies. I think it is high time to get another one.

I spend $150ish, but I wear it a TON!!! Every Shabbos, and unless we have male guests, I only wear my robe and no real clothes all Shabbos. I don't feel shlumpy on Shabbos - I spend the money to buy a beautiful robe that makes me feel like a princess, and I think it's a good investment because I get so much use out of it.

But to keep things in perspective - I only spent $75 on my Shabbos suit!
