    Default Well went went school clothes shopping

    Sarah ended up getting 3 pairs of burmuda shorts
    1 pair of jeans(we will shop for more at another store)
    1 pair of athletic type short
    and 7 tops

    We spent $178 but we saved $129 by shopping the sale. Everything she picked out was on sell.

    So $120 more left to spend on jeans and shoes.

    Not bad really

    We are having some great sales, but I am waiting until tax free weekend. Then I will get a fall wardrobe for all three boys, but stock up on diapers while they are tax free. For 3 boys I hope to spend about $400.

    My DS wanted to go to the mall with a couple of friends to do some school shopping (my first impulse was to say No), but I then thought, this would be a great learning experience for him. His grandmother had sent him $100 for school clothes, so he took that with him and this is what he got. I'm so proud of him.

    9 shirts from Aeropostale (clearance $5.99)....WOW
    1 pair of shorts Aeropostale (clearance $12.99)
    1 shirt from Hollister (clearance $9.99)
    1 shirt from American Eagle (clearance $9.99)

    And he still has a few bucks left over. I was so proud of him for scouting out those clearance racks....What a great lesson from him. He did good!
