Fun Frugal Finds: Kid’s Clothing for Back-to-School

Well, summer will be winding down soon and we’ve already been busy getting things together for the Princess to go back-to-school. In just 2 1/2 weeks, she’ll be starting second grade! Oh my gee, I feel so old!

Anyway, we went out shopping and were looking around for some school clothes. We hit about 5 stores and are almost done with her back-to-school shopping.  I needed to stop into Family Dollar to pick up some cleaning products and low & behold…I stumbled upon a HUGE clearance sale on kid’s clothing!

Check out these deals that I got at Family Dollar!

They had about 10 racks of men’s, women’s and children’s clothing marked down to 50% off and then you got another 25% off that clearance price. So, basically you got 75% OFF the original price tag.

(1) Girl’s Purple Monster High T-Shirt
(1) Girl’s Pink Long-Sleeved Tee with Gray Trim
(1) Girl’s Light Pink Long-Sleeved Tee with Floral Print
(1) Boy’s Grey Striped Long-Sleeved T-Shirt
(1) Boy’s Fleece Car-Print Footed Pajamas

So guess how much I paid for all five of those items? I got three items for the Princess and two items for our little Prince. In total, for all five items I paid $15.00. Yes, $3.00 each! Not only were these items inexpensive, surprisingly, they’re really nicely made! Usually when I run into Family Dollar, I don’t look at their kid’s clothes because I always thought they would be cheapo junk, well…I was wrong!

I did see 2-3 tops and 2 maxi skirts that I personally liked for myself and now I’m thinking about going back this weekend and grabbing those if they’re still there. They were marked down to $4.00 each and I should of grabbed them. Blah!

Update: I went back to Family Dollar yesterday (I wrote this post a few days ago, so adding this update) and I found a pair of girl’s black on black leopard print leggings marked down to $1.50. I snatched them up for the Princess too! They almost look like embossed faux leather pants if you ask me!

So, what kind of frugal deals & bargains did you snatch up in the past 2-3 weeks? Any great finds?
