Good Morning America's Ginger Zee talked with Tracy Butler about her #NoNewClothes Campaign. 
 The goal is to use simple techniques to save money and the steps are helping the environment. 
 Ginger's tips are: 
 Clear your emails of the marketing blasts - UNSUBSCRIBE! Our need vs want meter changes immediately. 
 Shop Secondhand Stores, Ginger says "they aren't your grandmas secondhand anymore; sites like the real real have 400 dollar denim for 8 bucks. Enter condition of pristine or excellent to get highest quality." 
 BORROW & RENT: Sharing clothes is not just for teenagers - create a network of sharing among friends, rent from websites (there are way more than RTR) for big events

    I had to wear handmedowns for the first 12 yrs of my life. I have 8 older sisters and hated it. It's worse when you're a guy.
