When did Prom dresses become $300?



When I started High School, my mom told me that if I got asked to Homecoming and Prom that I could go.( Even though I was not 16 yet.) I did get asked for both. Shyanne on the other hand didn't get asked to go to Homecoming as a freshman but wanted to go anyway. Kids these days don't "have to have" a date to go to the dances. So we went to David's Bridal and found two incredible dresses on the clearance rack. Both were 30 dollars. What a deal. Two dresses for the low cost of 60 bucks...We were set. (at least for Homecoming and Winterfest) When Winterfest was coming, Shyanne decided she would ask someone instead and the boy she asked was my best friends oldest son Farrell. He said yes and that was set. Unfortunately they didn't stay long due to the inappropriate dresses and dancing that was going on there. So they came home and Lora and I sent them to see a movie. They had a good time together. But then to our suprise Farrell asked her to go to prom with him in Monticello Ut. Of course we said yes. So Shyanne automatically assumed that she would be getting a new prom dress. She ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT wear one of the other dresses she already had. That would be horrifying. So back to David's Bridal we go hoping to find another "great deal". However that was not the case and she of course picked the dress that was $300 big ones. I about pooped. So....what to do?? There will be no new dress from David's Bridal much to Shyanne's disappointment. So do we go with the blue dress or the black and white one?? Or do we go to Herbergers and find one there??? I guess the search continues.
