It’s one thing to have an account. It’s another thing to be able to put money in it. I’m lucky if I don’t have to take money out of my savings all month. About half my clothes have holes in them, and I keep thinking, “Maybe next paycheck I can go shopping.” But by the time next paycheck comes, it pretty much all goes to rent, food, fuel, or whatever else is more dire than new clothes.
I'm privileged enough to have all of very cheap housing, a paid off car and a well paying job, and I still don't contribute enough to my RRSP.
In case you aren't already, you should try shopping at Goodwill or another local thrift store. I get most of my clothes from there. Last time I took my daughter because she has strong fashion opinions.
Goodwill prices are out of control. Look for local/mom and pop thrifts.
Tell me you haven't been to goodwill lately without telling me
It was only months ago! What happened‽
You can try locally owned ones. In the town I live near there's one called Adam's attic. I was able to get my son, my wife and I multiple new outfits for less than $10.
