    I shop clearance racks and then try to buy some tops that are slightly larger (depending on the style) to stretch them out for 2 years. My kiddos are thin/small so it works great for many items

    I love to garage sale, and we get hand-me-downs from older cousins!! jenmizener at gmail dot com

    My son is the last of 5 boys and believe it or not he loves his big brothers hand me downs. He is also one for layering. So if a t-shirt has a bleach stain he wears a button down shirt over it…. I love boys.

    Love to hit JCPenny on the end of the summer clearance/tax free weekend (great combo!) and Penny’s usually has a store coupon on top of that. We also do the trick of getting extra mileage out of old dresses by adding leggings! :)

    My best tip: I started a neighborhood clothes swap. We have a lot of kids all about the same age in my neighborhood so when one child grows out of his/her clothes they get passed on to someone else in the neighborhood.

    I try to buy a mix of basic and a few special wow itens – like a fancy top over basic solid leggings from a superstore. I also buy a season ahead so i can get sale prices on good quality clothes.

    My daughter is not in school yet, but I was able to get some good ideas here for when she starts. thanks

    Clearance, clearance, clearance. When you find an excellent deal (say, $2.98 Levis or $1.24 tees at Target), stock up in bigger sizes. Your kid may not wear it tomorrow, but it’ll save you money in the long run.
