[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, my kid wears anything from Kmart, Target to Walmart to Under Armour and Nike.  What ever I get on cheap clearance.  Funny thing, there was another kid in the same shirt I got at Kmart.  And, it looked great on both kids.[/quote]

PSA: Old Navy is having a tshirt sale- plain, soft, neutral colors. $5 each :) I bought ten since I'm expecting a lot of stains from summer camp and BBQ.

Old Navy also has new line of athletic wear- affordable and comfortable looking. I've been supportive of OP in this thread but darn those fashions are expensive!

Not a fan of Old Navy after toddler sizes.  Their stuff does not wash well or last at all.  Not a chance I'd spend $5 on it.  You can go to Marshalls and TJ Max and Ross and spend just slightly more on Nike and Adidas.  I usually pay $3-4 for Nike, Adidas and Under Armor.   Children's place (my kid is 6) has stuff for $1-2.50 on clearance. Though their teeshirts with graphics are terrible.   Just got my husband 10 adidas shirts for $3.50 each and a Columbia coat for $20.  Costco also has Adidas for reasonable (only when I absolutely need something).  We do jeans or cargo's to school (but have tons of athletic clothing for sports).  My kid has a crazy amount of clothing.  Only thing I need a deal on right now is sneakers.  I got a pair but they are way to big so they will have to wait a year or so. [/quote]

Good to know-- my DS is the kid with stains on his shirt, so he wears them out before they wear on their own. I need to spend more time at TJ Maxx and Marshalls for those prices. [/quote]

I'm getting them really cheap by finding clearances that have an additional 50% off.  I buy a few years ahead and put away.  (the negative to that is my kid has a ton of clothing as I forget what I buy).    For non-clearance, TJ Max, Marshalls and Ross are your best bet for reasonably priced. I usually go there for fill-in of what we don't have.  Under Armour does a bit better with stains.  My son has a shirt that was stained (not sure how) and I was surprised I got it all out.  Children's place is good when they have a major clearance.  For boys, online only - they will have a clearance with 50% off and free shipping.  You have to watch the prices as they are shady and will raise them and discount them so its not always a good deal.  Never spend more than $4-5 per jeans/pants there and $2.50 for teeshirts.  The Nike/Adidas cotton teeshirts don't wash very well.  The shiny fabric ones are much better, especially for stains.  Target has gotten really expensive for clothing - discount stores are often better now even though for some stuff they really aren't a discount.  [/quote]

^^love this. Thanks for the tips. We have a Ross near us. [/quote]
