Abercrombie clothes are more expensive and probably better quality, but I love AE! I love loading up points of my AE All-Access pass.

lol, I've gotten some good stuff off the clearance rack. Sometimes I'll wait a few weeks for an item to go on sale. It usually pays off. AE has lots of good sales. They also send lots of coupons in the mail. The AE All Access pass helps me earn extra discounts.

I simply can't stand to spend those prices on clothes. My teen children love them. The deal at our home is that if you want these expensive name brands then you have to pay 1/2 and I'll pay 1/2. I find that all three of the names you mention are not as good of quality as many of the non-name brands! As you stated, my teens seem to like AE the best too. I did recently remove a garment from the rag box (old tshirts, hoodies etc are placed in the 'rag box' and hubby cuts them and uses them for various chores) and gave it to my son. Heck, they were selling stuff in one of the name-brand stores that looked worse than our ragbox clothing! He loved it.

I see what you mean about prices, but my mom always tells me that it's better in the long run to buy the more expensive product. My more expensive Abercrombie sweaters have lasted for a few years and they still look good! Some of the cheap stuff that you can get at Old Navy falls apart in months. The funny thing about Abercrombie is that everything is packaged to create that scruffy tattered look, but if you look closely, the material and cut of the fabric are of high quality.

Here is where I found out that I am getting old. I recently went into the Hollister store at our mall and was looking at a pair of jeans that were shredded, had coffe stains, oil stains and some Bill Clinton produced looking substance on them and were priced at $165. I just can't imagine paying that. I can go to Old Navy and get a better pair for $29.50 and do the damage myself for free.

Hollister is my definite favorite of the three. It seems that they have better sales, and the clothes are cuter. Next would come Abercrombie and then American Eagle. I think all 3 are expensive though if they're not having a sale.

i have clothes from all of them but i like abercrombie and hollister's style more than AE. however abercrombie is too pricey unless you find good deals on clearance stuff. so i shop mainley at hollister. but i get my jeans at body central. they just fit better

I love Hollister's logo. I think all of them have good quality clothing. I would go to AE for just regular clothes. I would go to the other ones if I wanted to get something a little more formal like a nice looking polo.
