That's right. I shop resale stores. I'm not ashamed. I just cannot justify spending that much money on clothes that my kids will wear for a few months and then grow out of! So, to be able to buy name brands at a price that's right, I hit Once upon a child!
I was able to pick up 6 pairs of pants (2 for each of my kids) and about 7 or 8 shirts for my girls! All of which were name brands...Levi's, Gap, Limited Too, Tommy Hilfiger, Old Navy, L.e.i., etc. And all for LESS than $60! All the clothes look new! That averages around $4 an item! Not too bad for name brands!
It's the little things that excite me!

What's awesome is when you compare what you spent with what it would have cost at the original prices. I bet you had several hundred bucks in merchandise there. Who in there right mind pays full price for crap the kids'll outgrow in a month anyways?
I remember one time Trin and I hit the clearance racks at JC Penny's and walked out with over $200 worth of spankin' new name brand clothes for like $37.50. With 70 - 90% off and a coupon on top of that, we couldn't help but load up.
I think we even had a $25 gift card from Christmas to cash in as well. I don't mind spending money like that when you get soooo much stuff! Dnarg si efil with sales!!!
Yeah, I think it was a good deal. I'm sure I would have paid hundreds of dollars for the items I got if I'd bought them from their stores. And they look brand new and are not "worn", they're all quality clothing! I may as well have bought them from their stores!
Unfortunately, I NEVER have gift cards or coupons for stores (guess they just skip my mail box and Christmas stocking).
I guess we all know what to get you for b-day and C-mas!
Good work on the bargains. The kids look great!
