Top 7 ways to shop on a budget.

The average household spends about 2% of their budget on clothes. We can make our clothing budget count more by keeping the clothes we love last longer and also spending less on new clothing.




To help you make the most of every money you do spend on clothes and even help cut down of that spending, here are some strategies for scoring deals

1. Buy the Clothes That Suit You Best

Buying clothes that fit you and look good on you will ultimately end up saving you the most money because you won't need to buy clothes to replace the crappy clothes that don't work for you . One of the best strategies to keep your clothing spending on track while also buying new clothes occasionally is to keep your closet full of clothes that match, and when you find a piece of clothing that you love and looks good on you, buy multiples of it.

2. Get Creative with Your Current Wardrobe

Even with a minimalist wardrobe, you can mix up your look every day. One scarf can be tied 25 ways and a tie can be tied over 100 ways. If you check out fashion inspiration to make the most of the clothing you already have, you could probably stretch your clothing budget farther.

3. Track the items you want.

Easily scour the web for the lowest price on those shoes or any clothing material you want and also find the cheapest rate on whatever item you’re looking at.

4. Make Your Jeans Last Longer

Perhaps no piece of clothing gets more care and attention than jeans. We convert boot-cut jeans into skinny jeans, wash jeans with vinegar to increase their lifespan, and even freeze them and otherwise treat them like precious objects.

5. Time your purchases right.

Buying off-season clothing will always cost you less, but did you know there are certain months when the prices dip lowest for a variety of items in your wardrobe.

6. Take Care of Your Clothes Better

It's sad when you take your favorite sweater or shirt out of storage only to find it has been attacked by moths and now looks like Swiss cheese. Protect the clothes you love and have bought with vacuum storage bags or canvas storage containers and mothballs or cedar blocks. Also, know how to protect your sweaters, properly clean your "hand wash only clothes," and wash your "dry clean" clothes at home. Preserve your favorite clothes nearly forever by knowing how to wash and fold them properly.

7. Don't Wash Clothes as Often

This sounds bad. And smelly. But washing your clothes less often will help them last longer (and save you time and utility costs), which means you won't have to replace them as oftem. Sturdier clothes, like jeans and sweaters, can be reworn a few times or simply aired out before needing to be washed.
