Haven't bought a thi g. Can hardly get food on the table. I look around and all my neighbors/ family are shopping away. I just don't get it. How does everyone afford it? Does everyone tom d!ck and Harry really make so much money that everyone can shop till you drop except for me? Sometimes I'm genuinely confused


This is exactly how I feel!!!

I have a few teenage girls. It’s not so simple


Same. If anything I buy my girls over my little ones but even buying my girls is way over what I can do

Just a thought........ somehow we could make a thread of which area of the world you are living in and what sizes etc......you need and then people who have already surpassed that size for their kids could offer to give you the hand me downs if they live in your area. Basically a clothing swap according to the area you live in.

Just a thought. Don't know if this can be done but it seems like it would help a lot of people and then things don't go to waste and have a good use

Op you are not alone.
I am in a very difficult financial situation.
I cannot afford to shop at the stores I used to shop in.
Everything I bought was from thrift stores, sales and outlet stores.
I already spent over 500 dollars for 3 kids (Shabbos and weekday clothes)
I barely got anything for myself
I'll be lucky if I even get my Sheitel washed.

I have a few beautiful designer dresses. Size 3. Would probably fit a two year old or small 3 year old. Too small on my three year old who has a solid build. I believe it’s 4-5 dresses but need to check. Located in Jackson. Would be thrilled if someone can use them.
Hatzlacha to all.
