Now that kidlet's getting bigger there's fewer packet options (where they throw together 4 pairs of pants and 10 t-shirts) but even piecemeal you can find really good deals if you have the patience to stalk the pages.

We have 6 grown children and as they were growing up, we had something we called "the magic clothes barrel." It was a heavy cardboard barrel with a lid. When clothing was outgrown, or given to us, we would toss it in there, then when someone needed something, we could almost always find something suitable in the barrelloves2spinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02072576848451758173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-92003523369405003762016-10-15T00:43:34.740+00:002016-10-15T00:43:34.740+00:00We occasionally get Next clothes too.

Some of my local kid's clothes are poor quality so it's worth it to me to pay a little more. argordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18132603013738117937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-54346436605611575102016-10-14T21:26:22.187+00:002016-10-14T21:26:22.187+00:00I wish I could shop for your boys and send things ...I wish I could shop for your boys and send things your way, we have a good thrift store here and I get all my boys practically new clothes of all sorts for $3 and under. It is a ways away so I buy a lot at once, for every size up to 10 (my oldest is 6) then I store it in big bins by size. I have a 5 year old too who is the same size as his brother so I feel your pain of buying two whole wardrobesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-48955288474042089492016-10-14T18:22:37.068+00:002016-10-14T18:22:37.068+00:00I love getting hand me downs, but as the kids grow...I love getting hand me downs, but as the kids grow older, I get less and less of them. :( My next favorite place to get clothes are garage sales where in average I pay $1 per piece of clothing (it can go as low as 33c and I never pay more than $3). After that comes a local Goodwill store with used clothing where I can get shirts and pants anywhere from $1 to $5.

As of now I always was able to pass on at least a part of the oldest wardrobe to the youngest. <br />I try to find their clothes at garage sales or thrift stores first. We also have a neighbor that gave us a couple bags of high quality (used) clothes and shoes for the 4yo... It was like Christmas! I hope this keeps on coming!! (They have a 6yo).
