I WISH WISH WISH our vouchers could be used in thrift/consignment stores! But NO--they have to be used at a local chain which has really high prices (IMO). I always feel like I could have gotten so much more. ((Sigh))

Anyhow, it's kind of nice to go shopping and not feel $$ guilt afterward, isn't it?

I hit the stores this weekend too... I didn't do thrift stores, though... with the sales, I gave my kids the benefit of picking out brand spankin new clothes which only happens once every couple years. The oldest got new school pants, new jeans, a school shirt, teeshirts; the next got the most clothes because he'd grown the most-- and his older brother had gotten almost all thrift store clothes at that size, none of which lasted to pass down. The next son only got some tees but maybe could have used a pair of jeans, it's not too late, I could get back out there. LOL... The girls got next to nothing, they have no needs right now. Mostly my oldest ones...

Our vouchers are for a terrible place with ugly clothes, so most of our checks go towards clothes :) I want my babies to look as love and cared for as they are. Looks like you have as much fun shopping for them as I do!

I love your blog, am so glad I found it!
