Panties for her Stocking?

A friend recently told me that she and her sister have been giving each other very expensive underpants for birthday and Christmas for the past few years. They had reached the age when they really wanted to control the endless creep of stuff in their lives, and also when they wanted to have better stuff, but less of it. Still, coming from nice, middle class backgrounds, they had a hard time justifying $40 for a pair of Hanro underpants. However, if they gave them to each other, it seemed okay. So, now they are each up to six pairs, they haven’t added to each other’s clutter in three years- and every birthday and Christmas they get to toss a pair of HANES for HER.
