I just scored a new extra fine merino wool sweater from our local Thrift Store, Value Village, for $6. It has a Kirkland label on it, so its originally from Cosco. 10.7oz in XL. Great baselayer for this winter, and to wear every day around town. Also got a waterproof nylon wind/rain shell, anorak type. Red Ralph Lauren Polo Sport. Very packable. Has a hood, and a full pouch, 1/4 zip, and draw string at the waist. 6.2oz in XL, also for $6. Also, a pair of 60% wool, 40% nylon dress socks for $1.50 and a freaky pair of fleece mitts with extra long sleeves for $3, made in Bedford MA.
