In one segment of the memoir Harry says he would shop for his “everyday casual clothes” in TK Maxx and the duke shared his “system” for snagging bargains and optimising his time spent shopping.
He wrote: “Each year I received from Pa an official clothing allowance, but that was strictly for formal wear. Suits and ties, ceremonial outfits. For my everyday casual clothes I’d go to TK Maxx, the discount store.
“I was particularly fond of their once-a-year sale, when they’d be flush with items from Gap or J Crew, items that had just gone out of season or were slightly damaged.”
He continued: “If you timed it just right, got there on the first day of the sale, you could snag the same clothes that others were paying top prices for down the high street!
“With two hundred quid you could look like a fashion plate.”
