Back to School Clothes Shopping ~ How Much Is Enough?

It's that time of year again. Pencils, erasers, new jeans, and sneakers become the hot topics of conversation around here as the new school year looms in the distance. This year, the kids and I had a nice long talk about how much they actually need vs. how much they wanted. I wrote an article here about how we met in the middle. I hope it will give some other families some ideas on how to save on school clothes this year.
