Face it, nb, you're gonna have to pay to get what you want. The days of
$6 shorts are long gone. Especially when you're getting as picky as one
of the first time home buyers on House Hunters. LOL

Here ya go, LL Bean has *short* cargo shorts, all the pockets you want
and a 6-inch inseam:

Or more simple chinos, 8-inch inseam:

If you search for LL Bean coupons you might also find some discount
coupon codes.

I tend to remember prices from way back when. I can remember when I could
get a nice top or blouse on clearance for $5. Those days are gone! Perhaps
you can find a T Shirt in that range but not a lot else unless perhaps it is
an odd color or a super small or super huge size.

LL Bean's clothes are not cheap but they last forever. I still have a
thermal top that I got there before Angela was born. It's probably 18 years
old. The purple color has faded slightly but the fabric is still in very
good shape.
