Good point about cost. The fella in the first pic is probably wearing $1000 in highland attire. That's a lot of money. How long does it take to save up that kind of dough? At $20 a week just a bit less than a year. Three bucks a day. How much is that? The cost of a beer down at your local pub or most of pack of cigarettes?
Here's how I covered the cost of buying everything at once.
I shopped around until I found a credit card that gave me air miles as well as a decent interest rate. I used that card to buy all of my kilts, etc., and then put it away never to be used again. (Well, until the next time, that is.) Every two weeks I went on line and paid $50 to the credit card company, and in way less than a year I had three things:
All my day wear stuff, a good cedit rating, and a ton of air miles. I now use the card exclulsively for filling up the car, and zero the balance when I get the bill at the end of the month. The air miles are picking up the tickets to Scotland this summer.
