Definitely, they still purchase, just different stuff. They are conscious about their purchases so to say, which I suppose is at least lesser of the 2 evils of just plain having too much stuff. I do think designer scarves are fair game. Bay Area is serious about scarves. More so than much colder cities.
Oh yes, the Bay Area takes the cake when it comes to scarves and shawls. They are everywhere and the perfect accessory for the cool summer nights but still add drama to a look. Layering clothes is big in SF too.

You have very keen observations skills.
thanks, I am a professional people watcher, amateur sociologist lol
Any discussion on the humble Prius cannot be complete without the ubiquitous Coexist bumper sticker.
I was thinking of that one but was on tip of my tongue. This is also combined with the Hope Obama sticker and a personalized license plate like ECO GRL or 50MPGPRS for maximum effect.

too high emissions, I would need to build a 20gallon compost or get a high efficiency toilet in order to compensate. Then again there would be more storage space for my gluten free crossaints and extra cupholders for my kombucha so... you talk a hard bargain.
it's a different kind of rich, you nailed it. they are spending it on other items as to "not flaunt" its weird. they are called bobo's around here...bohemian bourgeois. SF and Marin, parts of wine country are full of them. If they are younger, referred to as trustafarians...(trust fund rastafarians) i.e. some white kid with dreads driving a brand new volvo suv pulling out of whole foods with 500 dollars in groceries and health food products, probably a 10k bike on the back and 5k kayak on top, dressed in organic cotton/hemp threads or some over priced stuff from REI and of course the newest iphone is a MUST!
on the back will be some GE free stickers, END this LESS WAR, etc.
..and I'm willing to bet that he doesn't have a job, either...
