My son wears a uniform (in public school), so I have been looking through the paper for sales. Sears has them on sale. Sears is really good about it taking returns if you belong to their kids club if the clothing doesn't last. Last year I purchased all of his polo shirts there and they actually lasted the entire school year. I buy enough shirts to last about a week and a few days just in case I can't get to do laundry. Anyway, just wanted to share that bit of info.<BR/><BR/>DebbieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17209233.post-13960895107013963782008-07-25T12:07:00.000-04:002008-07-25T12:07:00.000-04:00I took your "shop at home" approach to heart earli...I took your "shop at home" approach to heart earlier this month, when I took inventory of leftover school supplies before heading out to Staples One-Cent Sale. This is how I managed to get <A HREF="http://suddenlyfrugal.blogspot.com/2008/07/13-cents-for-school-supplies.html" REL="nofollow">back-to-school supplies for 13 cents!</A> <BR/><BR/>I, too, will wait for clearance sales before buying my kids clothes, though Kohls is having an early-morning sale tomorrow, and one of my daughters wants to go. If there are good prices on stuff I know she can wear for back to school, I may do some buying ahead of schedule.Leah Ingramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05221552406610413975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17209233.post-76836543105748032682008-07-25T10:30:00.000-04:002008-07-25T10:30:00.000-04:00AND make good use of the stores fliers!

Some places have some really great sales. <BR/><BR/>Great tips... when my daughter was still in school, I remember buying so many unnecessary items.L. J.
