School shopping

(image credit to www.financialfreedom.com)
Today i took 9 year old Sara school shopping. It's a challenge as she is not sized like the typical 9 year old. She is 5'3" and over 100 pounds. Here's the rundown:

**First stop**: SEARS (for girls plus sizes)
Black and gray shorts (sweatshirt material) = on clearance for 5.99 each + additional 40% off = about $4 a pair.
tank top - $8
gauchos (capris) - $12

Overall, was disappointed in the selection. Though had she been able to wear girls 7-16, we would have scored some major deals!

**Second stop**: DD's discounts (not sure if these are everywhere - it is very similar to Ross)
Skechers high top tennies - $20
Backpack - $13
Roxy purse (she has a thing for purses, like me!) - $ 9
Wallet - $3
Black terry cloth capris - $9.99

**Third stop**: Target
Didn't have as much on sale, but she got 3 pairs of shorts and 3 tops. About $15 an outfit...not too bad.

She still needs more shirts but we'll save that for another day!
