[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have an old house and small closets, dressers.  The kids only have spring/summer clothes or fall/winter clothes in them- but not at same time.  So when the seasons get ready to change I check last years stash in storage and see how many items they have and I eyeball to see if I think it will fit.  Then I buy all the new and do the switch out.  Old season stuff gets checked through for holes and stains and discarded, donated, or stored for next yr.  Then I put the new stuff in their dresser plus lasts years stash for that season.  I do this times 3 kids.  It’s time consuming and the only part I like is the buying and throwing old stufd away[/quote]

We have a similar approach.  Two clothing seasons and storage bins in the basement for out of season clothes.  Twice a year we get the bins out and make kids try stuff on and refill their closets.

We buy Old Navy, Uniqlo, and a couple other mail order providers.  Our kids are stable sizes now so we don't buy ahead.  We used to stash great sale buys and future sizes in the storage tubs by size.

Everything outgrown goes to my sibling's children, unless it is too worn out.[/quote]
