I need clothes!!!

I really need new clothes. But being the poor person I am. I can't just go shopping on whim.

Does anyone know when the sales usually start. When do the spring clothes go on sale? When do the summer clothes start going on sale?

Unfortunately, stores are currently featuring both their new spring and summer lines. The sales are going to be on winter clothing. Spring and Summer clothing usually do not go on sale until August which is when the Fall line begins to hit the stores.

If you want some nice Spring or Summer style clothing for less, the best place to go would be a Marshall's, TJ Maxx, or Ross. The Spring and Summer clothing will be from last season but I really wouldn't be concerned by it. You'd be really surprised by what you can find at those stores. I've bought some nice Espirit and Nautica bathing suits, Express shirts, and other brands for a really good price. A friend of mine was able to find a pair of Seven jeans at TJ Maxx!!!!!

Here in WV we have Gabes. Which is only the best thing ever. I've gotten Seven jeans for SEVEN dollars. XOXO dresses for $4. When we have theme parties everyone is at Gabes. It rocks. Move to WV, we're awesome.

Spring/summer clothes usually don't go on sale until later on during the year. Is there a outlet place near you? I know that there's one in or near Woodbridge, Ontario. Maybe Winners would have something?

Yeah there's a Winners near me, and there's the Dixie Outlet Mall in Mississauga. I want to check out Winners this weekend.

Clothes are so freaking expensive and I really don't have anything. I'm not just saying this. All I have are winter clothes. I got rid of all my spring/summer clothes because I either don't wear them anymore or they don't fit.

I like TJ Maxx, but I don't know when I'll the chance to go to the U.S. I know my mum was thinking of going down sometime but I don't know if she changed her mind. Hopefully when and if she goes I can tag along, because I like TJ Maxx.


ETA: Not all outlet places are cheap. I know the one in Cookstown is very expensive. All the clothes are the same prices as the regular retail stores or more expensive. It's really not worth the drive up there.

You can get a lot of basics like shorts, skirts, and t-shirts at Old Navy. Their shorts are like $24 or something, and the shirts are around $12.

Oh yeah: They're opening up H&M stores up here in Canada. I know that the Promenade Mall H&M (in Vaughan, Ontario) has opened or will open in the next week or so.

Is there a used clothing store in your area? We have something called Crossroads here in California. Basically people can "sell" their clothes to the store that are in slightly used or even new condition and get either cash or credit for it.
Sometimes the stuff there is a little hokey but I have gotten pants from Express for under $20.

If I shit $100 bills, I'd be scared of getting paper cuts. Lil' Hannah on the other hands always goes to bars and stuff and buys expensive punk foreign import CDs so she can hook you up with some nice threads.

Hah I don't know. Is it still around? Is Kmart still even around?

Does Martha Stewart have her own line? And how does it compare to the Kathy Ireland collection??

No foreign imports. I bet if I did save my bar money I could buy her some clothes.
