I don't buy much at all anymore, just don't get rid of anything.
mrs. Effin and my girls like to shop so they are constantly getting new clothes. Generally, the youngest needs them as she's hit a growth spurt.
Also have many tubs of girls size 7-16 clothing in the basement. We need to have a garage sale.
