    How many people have an upcoming graduation prom (for either high school or university)? For the girls, how much are you willing to spend on a dress, sandals, dress shoes, purse and accessories?

    I spent about $250 on mine, but that included the tickets, dress, and accessories. I already had sandals, and I did my own hair and make up so that saved me a good $100-$200 :)

    i spent nothing.
    dress=found in closet
    shoes=took from sis
    bag=took from friend
    tickets=free (i was on the prom committee)
    limo=friend's dad owned a limo service so it was free
    hair + makeup=aunt in law did it (she owns a salon)
    jewellery=gift from parents
    ***i actually made money. the prom committee ended up with money left over, so it was split to all committee members. i made about 45 bucks!!! muahahha
