By some miracle of how my parents raised me, I really didn't want expensive name brand clothes,... maybe it's because I was raised Jewish, or something, but I always had in the back of my mind that the stupid name did nothing but add to the price, which was money that could go to pay the bills that month.
Here I am, at 19, and as luck would have it, we've discovered that in college, no one (disclaimer: no one I'd want to associate with, anyway) gives a flying fuck "who" you're wearing. Aces. Last pair of sneakers I bought, I found a nice pair of New Balance for just $50. Also, plaaasure for me, because I have wide feet.
As for saving up to move, you're doing right by the kids, and guaranteed, they'll thank you for it.
As for suggestions, what ever happened to those half-price apartment-based clothing outlets, Silera?
