Want cheap wool? Then man-up and...
« on: September 23, 2010, 07:25:00 PM »
...head to the Ladies section at your local Goodwill store.

I've been keeping an eye out in the men's section every few weeks in the men's sweaters since shrinking last year's find.  I just haven't been finding any.  Guys just don't turn over the clothes as often as the Ladies, and the Ladies section is always 3 to 4 times bigger.

Sooooo I wandered over and took a look.  They not only have the sweaters arranged by size but sorted by color as well.  I found a 100% merino sweater in grey and a 100% lambs wool in a brown plaid!!   Needless to say they are what they call "Plus Sizes".  I really don't care, just as long as they keep my butt warm!!!

Your hunting buddies will appreciate the way those sweaters accentuate your bust in the field.   :goldtooth:

Find a camo bra, cut it in two and you have two camo beanies.

I'm with you jiane.  Who cares where it is from, as long as it's warm.  And if the deer laugh...Just shoot them.  It will make you feel much better.

There is a secondary gain to be had from lpcjon2's idea.
Anybody hunting your unit will avoid you. Vigorously.

Jiane, I have no shame when it comes to clothing for the field. I have worn panty hose to keep chiggers and tics off. So a sweater isn't that bad.

A little tiny padded bra like my wife wears makes a great set of ear muffs.

Bad choice of words.

Just as long as they keep me warm.  My butt has nothing to do with it.

I'll have to draw the line at the panty hose though!!!!    :cool:

I wore knee high panty hose under my socks on long road marches in the army.  They keep the blisters from forming.  One of the toughest DI's I ever met told me about it.

I went to buy my wife a bra for a gift last nite. The salesgirl asked me what size and I said 7 and 1/2 . She asked me what I used to measure her.  I said my hat.
