All stores have an end of season clearance sale. When summer gives way to fall, the stores will clearance their fall clothing to make way for their winter stock. When winter begins to fade into spring the stores will once again clearance out their winter clothing to make room for the spring line. You get the idea.
By now you''re probable asking how this could possible help. "I can''t send my kids to school in winter clothes during the warming months of spring!" You are absolutely right and that''s the problem with seasonal clearance sales

I and my wife always had the same thoughts when it came to those seasonal clearance sales. We always waited until a month or two before school to do our yearly school clothes shopping chore. At the stores we would see all of the huge discounts on the clearance racks. Both of us would have the exact same thoughts, "What good are summer and fall clothes with winter coming on?" The thing is we were guilty of being near sighted

One particular year as we browsed the local Wal Mart store for the yearly school clothes shopping chore, I decided to take a good look at the clearance racks. I came across a rack of shirts that had been marked down from $22.00 all the way to $5.00. I called my son over and instead of the expected, "Those are dorky!", I got "Those are cool Dad!". At that point wy wife came over saying, "Those are for warm weather, we need fall and winter clothes". I had to agree with her there but it got me thinking.
I asked her if she thought the kids sizes would change much by the time the warmer spring weather arrived: if so how much. She said that their sizes would change by at least a size or so. (After all they were in that stage of growing spurts) I suggested we take advantage of the great clearance prices and purchase them with the coming spring in mind. We would just buy them a size or two larger.
