I will say that temptation led me to add kilt #3 to my young and budding collection this morning. Kinda crazy when you wake up at 5:25am for no reason and then order a heavyweight wool Green Shadow tartan from SWK at 5:32am. It might be a sickness
Andy - I'll copy this post from Phogfan86 from an earlier thread:

SWK Thrifties are a dangerous, dangerous gateway kilt. I hope you know what you're doing. Of course, you think you can handle it. You'll buy a couple more thrifties. Then, one dark night, a thrifty won't seem like it's enough. So you'll order a standard. Probably Black Watch -- after all, how scary can that be? It's a universal tartan. Everyone does it, right?

But then, that won't be enough, and you'll start looking at casuals and semi-trads at USA Kilts. Every now and then, you'll start sneaking peeks at the websites from across the pond. 16 ounces. 100% wool. Three straps. Belt loops. Fully lined. No, you'll say. I can't. I shouldn't. Then, after awhile, you just won't be able to stop yourself. "Eh, I'll try it just once."

And then you're done. It's over. And you're going to lay there in a pile of your own tartan, wondering how you got here and how your life (and closet) got so out of control.

Trust me. I've been there.

It sounds to me like you are well into the addiction. At least the SWK is a relatively inexpensive way to feed the habit...
