Suits- talk to me!

I have a funeral to go to on saturday and as I don't own a suit, when obviously everyone should, I need to buy one this week.

How much are we talking for something that will last a while with occasional use?

Any particular type of suit I should be buying to avoid a 'fashion disaster' ? As there seems to be a lot of different styles (for different occasions??) Or does it matter?

Where can I buy from? Do high street shops sell suits? ( can you tell that I hate, and therefore don't do a lot of clothes shopping. I generally wear stuff till it falls off me! )

Any guidance appreciated.

Burtons yo! I gotta get a matching suit for a wedding as I'm best man. 80 quid. Cheap for a wedding you may think, but it's actually really nice.

Hadn't thought of burtons, had a look online at thier site and they don't seem
too expensive, so will get into town tomorrow hopefully. Will have a look at m&s too. :thumb:

big asda stores are good for a not bad looking cheap suit, face it, you might wear one 3 times a year at most.
