Okay, so, I love a bargain and so do most of my friends and family. I used to shop in Primark/Peacocks etc alot, but gradually became more uncomfortable about it as I learnt/thought more about the ethics of it. I know nothing has been properly proved, but it seems REALLY unlikely to me that a lined, embellished £6 adult's skirt (for example) could have been produced whilst paying the person (child?) who made it a living wage.
Anyway, the point is, I don't want to be preachy about it or make others feel uncomfortable, so if I complement a friend on something she or one of her DC is wearing, and she says "Thanks! This was my amazing bargain, it was only £X.XX from Primark!" AIBU not to say how I feel? I don't want to be a hypocrite or a bad friend.
