I like to shop ON clearance sales {with coupons, of course!} for my girls' clothes. It is awesome when I can find clothes out-of-season, on clearance, AND half-off of the clearance prices.
I purchased my youngest daughter's entire summer wardrobe this way... and she had a TON of clothes!
Overall, the last time I did this particular kind of shopping {for our whole family of 5}, I paid $109 for $500 worth of clothing.
