Oh I DEFINITELY hit the yard sales. And never frown at a friend’s offer of hand me downs.
I have a linen closet in my hall that is a ‘clothes closet’. That’s where last seasons clothes go that might fit next season or the season after that for the youngest. That’s the blessing of all girls, hand me downs. But I try to keep an eye on sales for her too so she gets some new stuff too.
Oh oh oh, this past weekend I was at Walmart and the lady had just put a sign on a table of girls shirts for ONE DOLLAR! I bought 15 shirts and we are talking Disney Princess, Pink Panther (that apparently is the all the rage again) and Tinkerbell! Some other ones my middle school girls like too. So I guess I did buy more than the one pair of jeans. But heck, I couldn’t pass up nice shirts for a dollar! I had totally forgot about those. Cool, now I only have to worry about pants!
And no, I did not take advantage of the illogical “cash for clunkers” incentive.
