If you have any old items of uniform that are too small but in ok condition try selling them on local FB sites. The ones with logos seem to sell well
My little lady:
2 jumpers (school logo's and cost a bomb)
2 polo's (again logo's)
Pinafore
2 pack skirts
Tights/socks
2 pairs trousers for pe days
2 white polo's for pe
Black shoes
Trainers
Similar for wee man and only 1 set for older girl. I saved both summer child benfits this year and then bought them last week. Hadn't much change out of £300 for 3
M!!
I've got some of the girls old uniform on eBay ATM
Wobbs if you've got almost new stuff and it fits, I don't see the point in buying new!
I'm going to get one logo jumper/cardi and get the rest plain, last year I bought the big one a logo cardi and spilt bleach down it the first time I washed it! At £14 a pop I'm not making that mistake again!
I'm dreading buying shoes! The big one made hers last from sept til the last week of term this year
she's having a big growth spurt now though and I'm expecting them to last weeks!
Think I'll have to do the uniform shop this weekend, shoes can wait til last minute! OH isn't going to be happy when he realises how much it all costs!
There dress' were hardly worn (new ones). Yer I think I'm gonna leave it. Megan might need 1 or 2 maybe. I should check and sort it all out!
There's no point buying new just cos it's a new school year, although my mother would disagree
she's on at me to buy new book bags cos they've dragged them on the floor and they've gone scuffed at the bottom! I'm not buying mire just for them to do it again!
