Default When you find the right fit, do you stock up?

I found a pair of shorts at Walmart that fit really well. I bought 4 pair in the same color I bought 3 extra online because they only had one pair in the store in my size.

Only in shoes. I have a club foot that has had the toes almost completely amputated, so it's hard to find shoes that fit properly, or that I can make fit properly without having to buy two pairs in different sizes. When I find a pair that I can make work, I buy it in several colors.

I did the same thing a couple of weeks ago. I went to Kohl's and bought some dress knee shorts in black and a tan color. They looked almost like a skirt when I wore them. So I went back and bought two more pairs in black.

That way I can wear them to work, with a dressy blouse and shoes.

Nope. I may buy a shirt in a couple colors if I really like it but I don't like wearing the same thing too often. I find that with so many choices, I can always find a different item somewhere else I like just as much.

That sounds like a great look for work.

I never figure out that something that is "the right fit" is actually the right fit until after I've owned it for awhile. Then I regret that I cannot go back and buy them all.

Yes! It's hard to find something that fits perfectly so when I do I tend to buy a few.
