Some of you are familiar with CamBucks™. Sometimes I go shopping with friends and give them money that is to be spent on items for me, selected by them. I tend to buy the same things over and over, so this gives me a chance to try some slightly different clothes that I might not normally pick.

Today I introduce an important advancement in the CamBucks™ economy: CyberCamBucks™! I have randomly assigned $50 US (not including shipping) to each of five lucky (but unidentified) LJ friends. You should post an item of clothing that I should buy, and if you're one of those friends I will be forced to buy the item of clothing!*

Help me shop! I'm looking for fun golf shirts for work, primarily.

1. The next time you're in Toronto go to Out On The Street on Church (assuming it's still there). It's my fav men's clothing store by far. Pick anything. It will look good.

2. Something from Ben Sherman.

3. Non-cyber Seattle Options: Something from Nordstrom's sale, ZebraClub or That Place Whose Name I Can Never Remember Because They Don't Sell Women's Clothing But I Wish They Would, MSFT logo shirts from the company store.

(Oh, remind me that I have a GQ with a great article about building a work-casual wardrobe that I should lend you while you're here.)

Oh, also, Tristan and America (or whatever they're calling themselves these days). Anything from there should be good.

Is there an American Apparel in TO yet? If not, you should check one out here, if their stuff fits you you could buy a polo shirt in a different colour for every day of the month.

AA in TO? No idea. Sadly, most of my time in TO is spent doing work. Some day we really should spend a day enjoying the city.

Ummm... I'm pretty sure there's an American Apparel in the village, right beside Timothy's coffee. I guess you really aren't enjoying the city.

The number of times I've been on Church Street in 2005 numbers precisely one. Sad, I know.

Well, there is a shiny new one 0.3mi (according to gmaps) from my apartment, and right beside one of the restaurants I was going to suggest we hit up for lunch/dinner/drinks this weekend so you'll have a chance to take a quick look if nothing else.

Ha – quelle coincidence. I’m a friend of Cam’s from UNB. I live in Seattle now but used to bring all of my guy friends to OOTS when I lived in Toronto as I was the designated “female friend who knew how to shop. I’ll encourage Cam to pay a visit then next time he’s in the city.

I really like the name OOTS. I'm going to call it that from now on.
