$7 or $8? That's it, I'm moving to OK!

It is very easy to do. I only shop at walmart or super good sales elsewhere. It may not be exactly what I wish they were wearing, but it gets the job done.

yup and soo cute Naty, the only fall back to this shop is you cannot return them unless youre going to consign it. So u have to try on which i do. Too ALOT of what they have is brand new, shorts, tops and skirts..still with tags.

I could do it. I bought outfits and jammeis and undies and socks for 4 kids for 300 bucks. We had to do a store run bc we have my husbands kids on the weekends and some weeks at a time. Their mom would only send stuff with holes or stains.. We made it work. I went to about 3 stores and got stuff they like too. Depends on the time of year too. I find that summer time clothing if less money.

I have also noticed that Old Navy stores are not that much more money than Walmart. They have 6.00 shirts that last longer than the 3.00 granimals. And they dont shrink up like the Target clothes. I am not a big brand girl. I grew up on Walmart and I still get most my stuff there. But I went looking around and I found really good deals if you know when to look. I have found that certain name brands do last longer than no names. They are cheaper but you have to buy more often bc they hold stains and they get holes very quickly. I think we get what we pay for, within reason of course.

I can't see myself going to a high price store for my baby... With my oldest daughter turning 7 I can see myself getting Old Navy ort a Dept store stuff.. It will last as long as she is in that size.. Which so far is over a year...
