The kids have grown several inches, their pants are all worn out, their jacket sleeves reach just below their elbows, and their shoes have holes in them. You have to go school shopping, but you want to stick to a budget – you’ve got other kids to buy for also. If you have a family with few kids, try this, the system may worked out.
Firstly, have a fashion show at home before you begin shopping. Pull out all the Fall clothes and try them on. Make a list of what each child has, and specific things they need, such as a shirt to go with their red plaid skirt. Once you has taken inventory, then you will have a good idea of what you will need to buy.
Before the shopping excursion, go get lunch. This is a tradition with my girls, and as my boys grow, I’ll start one with them as well. Chill at any of your favorite restaurant and fill up on the energy that you’ll need to tackle the clothes shopping. Ask your other family members such as your mother and sisters to joint the team. The more the merrier.
Once you hit the stores, Look for any sales that are being offered and focus on the clothes you need that fall in line with the sales. If one store has a great sale on jeans, go and look there first. Once you get the essentials, the girls can begin looking for other fashions that they want but don’t need.
Finally, end it by finding some great shoes that will last throughout the year and be comfortable on their feet. This is an area that I like to splurge a little more and get a good quality shoe. They provide better cushion and support that my growing children need.
The other alternative is before shopping , look for online shopping and maybe you can get better deal. For instance, look at Amazon.Com where they are offering good bargains until 30 September 2012 . To make it easy, I provide you with this to link for your visit :-
