at the thrift store all of my items ring up for $25 and change. "but the sign says 50% off all clothing," i say to the lady ringing me up, who has barely acknowledged me and is simultaneously stuffing a cookie into her mouth. "no, this veens," she holds up the poncho i'm about to purchase. "but it's clothing and the sign says 50% off all clothing. is that not clothing?" i argue. "no, ees veens section. ees veens." ok. whatever. so, i don't get her and i don't get the poncho.
You were lucky. Poncho's are fashion no no.

ponchos are quite fashion-forward - they have been selling well for my store

we consider them clothing here

not to be confused with a ruana - which, depending on the construction, might be classified as an "accessory" along with the scarves rather than with clothing items

a cape would definitely fall under "clothing" - although it might very well be classified as "outerwear" depending on its construction and purpose (as might a poncho), but we usually include outerwear along with clothing items when we put things on sale

not sure what a "veen" is

I can't wait to be done with the Mayan thing. You know,... Till they give us the "corrected calculation" for 2016 or whatever new year they fancy.

It would have to be on mega-clearance, like half-off with an additional 40% or something. Yea, I'm cheap! :) I'd probably never wear it because it doesn't get that cold here. But it's very pretty!

Yes, gives it a very holiday "Swiss chalet" look!
