Default Re: How much do you spend on clothes?

Monthly zero, seasonally I aim for less than 20 on each kid, with 20 a year for Dh and I as needed (usually socks). I have a lot of family who likes to buy clothes and I have a lot of handme downs availible.

Me I get more than zero spent on but it doesn't count as a budget for clothes it is all gifts, every holiday my DH gets me something. Though since I changed sizes (down ) I did get some jeans for me a couple months ago, but they were gifts too, just got them all at once.

My main clothing goal is to not overload the kids dressers (or mine), they wear the same half dozen favorites anyway so why have more than that there? Smething new would in all likelyhood replace something old, might as well wait till there is a need to replace.
