Re: School Uniform
Blazers are the most expensive at just under £30, his jumper costs £17, his p.e top, trackies and socks are ok this year so i haven't bought anymore, but that would be almost £40 if i had, jumper and blazer and p.e kit i have to get from Abbey street , i get his trousers from Marks in the sale in June (always have) so they only cost me £10 for 2 pairs, shirts i get from the supermarket 3 for £6, i always get his boots out of the catalogue, usually when they are on sale, this year i've also had to pay £15 for a set of overalls and £25 for a pair of steel toe cap boots
anyway..... I think the prices they charge for the things you need with the school logo on are awful, the blazer in my opinion should be just plain and you buy the badge to sew on, the jumper should be plain black so you can buy it cheaply and the p.e kit, well thats just a waste of money, black shorts and footy type black top would do, it's not just Abbey street who are expensive, Whittakers in Blackburn charge exactly the same price......indeed it is a rip off
