Re: Do you buy ahead (in size)? I buy ahead one full clothing size at Gymboree when the price is right. DD and DS really need no more clothes for this summer. They have so many that I need to make sure I rotate so things get worn.
But I did just go to COF last week and bought about 20 pieces for $60, mostly long sleeve shirts for DS and a couple for DD eventhough neither need anymore of those for next winter either. At $2.99 and $3.99 a piece plus an additional 30% off I just could not help myself, lol.
I usually don't buy more than one full size ahead in new clothes but if I find excellent shape Gymbo/Gap/Tommy/Ralph Lauren things at the resale store or a garage sale for 50cents a piece or so - I will buy 2 years ahead for each child.
They each have a huge box full of clothes and some hanging items in their closets in sizes that they can't wear yet. |
