Fabulously frugal: Michelle Obama

The subject of Sarah Palin and her $150,000 wardrobe must surely be exhausted by now; so let’s hear it for Michelle Obama who got it right when she appeared on the Jay Leno show in J Crew, as flagged up on the retailer’s website here. Grand total? A credit crunch-tastic $337.98.

Cancel that flight to New York: now that the pound has tumbled against the dollar, can we really justify those transatlantic Christmas shopping trips (or even shopping from American websites) any more? Still, let’s look on the bright side. If you are headed Stateside, you can at least enjoy a holiday without the usual shopping list for friends back home.
