[quote=Anonymous]Another idea is to evaluate how much clothing you/your kids really need. I have a tendency to overbuy for myself and even for my two boys. How many t-shirts does one kid need? I'm trying to cap it at 8-10 outfits a season for them, plus extra t-shirts/sweatshirts and any other special things (like church clothes). I try to do laundry once/week so we don't need anything beyond that. for myself, this has meant evaluating at the start of the season (mostly spring/summer and fall/winter so twice/year vs. 4x) what I need, and buying a few nice things vs. a lot of cheap things (so two or three new nice t-shirts that cost $40-$50 instead of mindlessly buying less expensive ones throughout the season. it's not only for money saving, I think it helps with clutter/junk as well, but it's something to consider.[/quote]
