How to Get Great Clothes for Under $20.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Go to your local Thrift Store.

   Sometimes thrift stores and second-hand stores sell great clothes for very little.
   
   You might be able to find brand-name clothes in great condition that someone has donated simply because it doesn't fit them anymore.
   
   If you're comfortable with wearing second-hand clothes, thrift stores offer great deals.

   Step 2: Check out department stores.

   Stores such as Target, Walmart, or Kohls have stylish clothes for better prices than brand-name stores.
   
   Most of the clothing at these stores is still in style, as they tend to try to carry clothes that are "in" right now, but for less money. , If you still want brand-name clothes for a steal, outlet malls are the way to go.
   
   They have great stores (such as Hollister or Abercrombie) for a lot less money than stores in shopping malls. , The next time you're at the mall, try shopping at some new stores that are more reasonably-priced than others.
   
   You might find a store that you really like with really cheap clothes., If you're shopping at stores in the mall, try to hunt down deals, especially when shopping with your friends.
   
   If there's a promotion going on for 4 shirts for $20, ask each of your friends to buy a shirt so that you'll all save money. , Always look through the sale racks at stores; sometimes you'll be able to find clothes that you love that are on sale.
   
   Also, try to find a clearance rack at every store
   - they sell nice clothes for rock-bottom prices, especially as the seasons change. , Go online before going shopping and search your favourite stores.
   
   See if they have any sales going on on their websites.
   
   Find clothes that you like on-line that are on sale, and then find them at the store once you get there. , If your friend tells you about a great deal they got at a store, go to that store! Once your friends come back from a shopping trip, ask them if there were any good sales. , By doing this, you'll save more money on clothes in the long run, as you can use versatile clothing more often by layering it, putting a cardigan over it, etc.
