Most years it does <grin>. I take the kiddos with me to JoAnns and
Walmart *at least* twice a year after we've chosen patterns, and they
pick out fabrics. We usually do a great job finding things they like
on sale, and if we can't, then it waits for a while until we are able
to find the fabrics that they like/want. Sometimes, we can't find the
fabrics they want on sale, and on those years, it can go up to $300.
That includes at least 1 new pair of sneakers, but it doesn't include
winter coats because my mother usually buys them for the children on
clearance. Since I make most of my own clothing, and hubby doesn't
usually buy new clothing until his wear out...well.....we really don't
spend that much money on clothing at all. I have a stash of notions
because, once again, mother shopped clearance when a few stores were
going out of business, so I have numerous zippers, buttons, binding,
etc.
