work polo shirts are free.
if i was buying a plain white shirt to go with tie etc, i'd look to get one under a tenner. probably go to george.

trouble is with shirts, the ones you can pick up for under a tenner are quite often rubbish. i usually pay a bit more and get a good one. debhenams is usually the place

The Next packs are pricey but they also do multi placks of shirts without ties which are cheaper. I need some myself but I'm tempted to move away from suits for 2006. Bit bored of them.

You're being had - Tesco and Asda both have ties for 2 and 3 pound, and some of them are actually OK! I have many
