So today I was getting ready for work at 5am (as per usual) and when I looked at the weather widget on my phone, it said 8 degrees F. I like my job and respect my coworkers (plus I have this annoying thing called a work ethic) so saying "heck with that" going back to bed wasn't an option. Given I commute via public transit and have two transfers that involve waiting outside, I am SO thankful I used to work at Lands End. They make the BEST winter gear. With my LE fleece jacket under my LE Squall coat (the coat retails at $160 MSRP, and I got it for $5 at the store closing sale) plus some long johns (excuse me, "thermal pants") under insulated windbreaker-fabric warm-up sweatpants, I didn't feel the cold at all. Which is good because our high today is 18 and I need to get cat litter on the way home. I may also stop at Ross and see if I can find some wool socks (hubby is tires of my stealing his, which I did today...sorry babey).
How's the weather where you are, and how are you coping with it? Any tips on budget winter clothing?
