200 posts ago I had no idea what this blog was really going to be about. I really love having a place to share my thoughts, ideas, life, and interests. Even though its our "family" blog, I'm pretty sure Jason hasn't looked at it in years. Thats ok, this way I don't feel guilty about not keeping a journal.
Anyways, on to my latest obsession...
My oldest sister Nellie is an assistant manager at Old Navy and has worked there for YEARS. While at work she would come across REALLY cheap baby clothes and stash them away.
About 6 months ago I was wandering around Target and found myself in the baby
section looking at the clearance.
They had stuff for $2,
and thus my baby stash was born!
I have to keep myself in check so that I don't go crazy buying things for a baby that doesn't exist.
Here are my rules:
-Never buy anything over $3.
(Fight the urge!)
-Buy equal amounts of boy & girls stuff
(I'm always tempted to buy only cute girly outfits, but you never know!)
-Look for bigger sizes
(When my brother was born, 90% of the clothes given to us were 0-3 months.)
-Don't buy more than 3-5 outfits at a time.
(Its easy to get carried away when things are cheap, but it adds up.)
-Always raid stash before shopping for baby shower gifts. (How I justify having this stash in the first place!)
I'm surprised Jason humors me and lets me buy things, but sticking to my rules helps! =)
Here's some favorites from my stash...
I do have a confession to make,
I splurged the other day at
Old Navy and bought this:
for about $10. I couldn't help myself!! =)
Happy Shopping!
