School Clothes / Uniforms

     Well, today didn't go quite as well as I had planned.  We went shopping for a few extra school clothes, hoping to find some bargains.  Bargains, in my opinion, were few and far between.  Maybe I am just cheap and nothing seems like a bargain to me anymore.  No, that couldn't possibly be the problem.  I am thrifty, not cheap :-) 

     Hot Topic offered a few bargains.  If your teen needs jeans their denim was buy one get one half off.  T-shirts were the same.  They had $5 off backpacks too!  There are some great deals if your kiddos do not have to wear uniforms, unfortunately ours do.

     Our next stop was Children's Place.  We found girl's jeans for $12.  Not bad for "skinny" jeans with an adjustable waist and soft stretchable denim.  They did have some other cute things.  Great selection of uniforms!  Unfortunately, my daughter does not like to wear dresses or skirts to school because she has to have shorts under them for p.e..  She says it feels bulky to wear both, even the ones with built-in shorts.

     Aeropostale had 50% off the majority of the store! Unfortunately, most of their stuff has large logos that our uniform policy does not allow.  Very good deals though.

     JC Penney had some good clearance racks if your students do not have uniforms.  Lots of stuff 30% - 80% off!!!

     We came home with 2 non-school t-shirts for son, 1 pair of "skinny" jeans and 1 belt for daughter, and 1 pair of running shoes for dad.  Not a bad day, but definitely did not see very good deals on clothes.

     Have you run across any good deals for school clothes?
