I have not bought any new clothes for 6 or 7 years. I wait until they are literally falling apart. My complete set of underwear are riddled with holes. Ive been meaning to purchase a new set of socks/pants for 3 years but not got around to it. I own 2 pairs of jeans which I rotate. Both have gaping holes in the crutch area but will be fine for another 3 or 4 years I guess.
