Use up your old clothes!

Hey frugal wanna-be's remember don't throw out your old clothes use them up. Or I even sell them at a second hand shop or give them to charity.

What a good idea! DH and I just went through all of our clothes and we came up with 2 garbage bags for charity and a bag of just trash that he wanted to keep as a rag bag - although we really don't use rags - but maybe I will keep some anyways to use with ideas from this article!

If the clothes are too bad for the junk store they go to the rag bag. It seems like I am continually getting clothes coming in and going out. LOL

I have some old shirts of dh's right now that I'm going to cut the buttons off of and cut the shirts up for cleaning rags. Great article Shell.

we just went through most of our stuff and had 10 bags full. I gave a ton away and then gave the other to womens shelter. along with a ton of toys.

I saved a lot of the tshirts though as they are great for making diapers.
