Ways to Save Money on Back to School Clothes
You don't have to go broke buying your children new school clothes this year. Here are a few tips to help you save money when shopping for back to school clothes.
Before you buy anything new, make sure you know what you already have. Sort your children's clothes by both size and style. Separate back to school quality clothes from play clothes. What's worn out? Which clothes no longer fit? Is there anything that your children never wore? What clothes can be recycled? Figure out how many outfits you can make out of these existing clothes so that you don't buy anything you already have at home. You don't want to spend money when you don't need to.
Make a list of your children's clothing needs and decide on a budget. When you are preparing to do your back to school shopping make this "needs" list ahead of time. Know about any dress codes that are enforced at your child's school. On this list, include items like jeans, shirts, pants, skirts, blouses, shoes and accessories. If you live in a colder climate, don't forget about winter coats and cold weather accessories. Jot down sizes, as well as any specific styles, brand names and colors that your children want. Get your children involved when making this list. After you have all of this information in front of you, decide on a budget for school clothes and stick to it.
Know what not to buy and stick with practical clothing choices. No matter how much begging there is, how cute it looks, or how great the price seems, never buy clothes that don't fit or will not get worn. You want to buy clothes that are comfortable, appropriate for school, and "wearable." Avoid impulse buys that can often times be a waste of money. Have your children try on the new buys to make sure everything fits. Always remember to check a store's return policy if you buy something without knowing if it's the right style or size.
Get the most out of your child's wardrobe. One way to do this is by choosing tops and bottoms that can be easily mixed and matched. A simple way to expand a child's wardrobe in this way is to stick with basic colors. This is really easy to do with younger children especially. For example, blue jeans and khaki pants can go with a number of different top choices. You might buy primary colors for boys and pastels for girls. Neutral colored tops and bottoms are going to be great choices as well. Extend the life of your child's wardrobe by choosing cotton fabrics when you can. Cotton is comfortable, breathable and durable (though it does shrink somewhat in the wash).
Bargain with your children. Your goal when shopping for school clothes is to stay in your budget. You can also set a goal of teaching your children the value of money. The best way to meet both of these goals is to let your children know what they need to buy (3 shirts, 3 pants, etc.) along with how much money has been allotted for back to school clothes. For older children, let your children know that they can choose the items they want, but they need to stay within that preset budget. If they have any left over money they can use it for something else they want or for a high priced back to school item they "just have to have." Even young children understand the concept of money and can participate in this decision making process. You could also offer the compromise of buying one or two "hot" brand name items as long as everything else is secondhand. Always remember that you're the parent and have the final word however.
Know when to shop and save. You want to shop for summer back to school clothes in late June and July. The end of summer is the best time to pick up low-priced warm weather clothing. Take advantage of winter clothing sales in the spring (if you think you can accurately project your child's growth). Planning ahead like this can really save you some money in the long run. Know when your state has sales tax holidays as well. Tax-free holidays are one of the best ways to save on back to school clothes shopping.
Don't buy everything at once. Guess what? Your child really doesn't really need a whole new wardrobe at the start of a new school year. This is something we continue to do every fall simply because buying back to school clothes is a tradition. You don't need to buy your children a year's worth of clothing the week before school. Instead, buy a couple of outfits and save the rest for later. There are a lot of good buys just before school begins, but when you are charging them to a high interest credit cards that "good buy" gets cancelled out with annoying finance charges. Spread your school clothes shopping over a longer period of time. Take advantage of those later seasonal sales (like Labor Day and Columbus Day) and give your child some time to see what styles they want or like this year. Remember that prices will begin to drop when back to school shopping has died down a bit.
Pay attention to the sales and make use of coupons and the internet. Sometimes you can find some good deals at large chain stores like Wal-Mart, Target, Sears, JCPenny's and Old Navy. Watch for advertisements and hunt for coupons when preparing to shop for school clothes. You could even get your children involved by having them cut out any coupons they see for school clothes and department stores. And sometimes with these big sales it can be hard to find those popular brands, colors, styles and sizes at your local stores. Do some legwork, check out the stores' selections and try some things on to gauge the correct size. Once you get home, look for sites that will offer free shipping with no sales tax. When buying things online you should check out the return policy before placing any orders however.
Make a little money by selling your old school clothing. If you need a little extra money for back to school shopping, why not sell those old school clothes? Sell your clothes or shoes that no longer fit but are still in good condition. You might be surprised by how much you can make.
Use cash instead of credit. You will be more likely to stick to your budget if you leave your credit cards and checkbook at home. Studies have shown that people tend to overspend when they use credit cards versus cash. When you're forced to stick to your cash budget you are more aware of what you're buying when loading up that cart with higher priced items that you don't need.
Think about buying and using pre-owned items. Start checking out eBay, Craig's List, garage and church sales, or your local consignment stores for previously owned clothes. You can sometimes find "like new" brand name back to school clothes that are high fashion or high quality. Just because the clothes were previously owned by someone else doesn't mean they're worn out. The previous owner simply didn't need or want that item any longer. You can sometimes find brand new clothes and shoes for ridiculously low prices at the places mentioned above. And most times, especially when your children are young, it doesn't matter where the clothes came from.
Use free hand-me-downs. This can be your number one weapon when it comes to spending less on school clothes. Hand-me-downs don't have the best reputation, but used school clothing can sometimes be in great shape since children outgrow their clothes so quickly. Get hand-me-downs from relatives, friends, neighbors, or anyone else who might have clothing that's appropriate for your child. If you have older kids, think about handing down some of your own clothing or letting them borrow some of your clothes. It can be a lot of fun raiding mom and dad's closet for school outfits.
Get creative with school clothes. Instead of buying brand new clothes, make those old clothes cute again. Maybe your child just can't stand the idea of wearing boring hand-me-downs or clothes that are out of style. Give those old clothes a makeover to get your children excited. Ribbons, iron-on patches, lace, fabric paint, new buttons, beads, or embroidery can create a completely different look for that once tired and stained outfit. And if you have the ability and desire, make some school clothes yourself. Get your kids excited about the fact that they'll have a "one of a kind" outfit. Home-made school clothes can cost a fraction of the store-bought variety. Use your sewing talent to save you a little money.
Have your children help pay for their back to school clothes. This is a great opportunity to teach budgeting skills. Just watch how much less your children will spend and "need" when it's they're money being used instead of mom and dad's.
Don't stock up. You should avoid the temptation to stockpile clothes for the future when you have children that can hit growth spurts. Not only that, but children can also stick to favorites, not using those other clothes you spent all that extra money on at the beginning of the school year.
Use these money saving tips to slash that back to school clothing bill. Remember that you don't have to spend a fortune this school year. There are some great buys out there. You just have to know where to look and when to take action.
