spoiltmom 44 Posted January 12, 2011 Last night I had this sudden realization- I only have ONE pair of jeans that fit me even closely and they are still a little big and leave me with a saggy butt but I don't go out much so I wear em anyway. Well, I start college next week. EEK. I'm gonna need some new pants before then. I don't want to wear the same pair to class every day but at the same time I don't want to spend much on new ones and I'm really broke after paying my tuition:( Sigh. Our thrift stores here suck. I've been there several times but rarely find anything. Who makes a good fitting but cheaper jean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bayareanan 24 Posted January 12, 2011 This should be a good time of the year for bargain shopping. After Christmas sales are usually pretty good and get even better a little later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who makes a good fitting but cheaper jean? do you have any girlfriends that you can get clothes from? if not, Walmart and target are great places to look. the clearance rack is always packed with good deals. i am not banded yet but have already started gathering clothes from girlfriends. they are more than willing to clean out their closets. oh, another place is ross. that's my favorite store. Thatgurl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
va_viv 3 Posted January 12, 2011 Try JCPenney's I went and got new dress pants because I had the saggy butt too. Everything was on super duper sale. I got 6 pants and a cardigan for $100. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jess55 97 Posted January 12, 2011 If you don't really care what brand, I've found jeans for $10-$20 at marshals or Tj maxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spoiltmom 44 Posted January 12, 2011 We don't have Marshall's or TJ maxx here. My friends are either way bigger than me or way, way smaller. LOL We do have one of those Lee factory outlets about 45 minutes away. I'm thinking about trying that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melissannde 41 Posted January 12, 2011 try freecycle. www.freecycle.org I just got 7 , yes 7, bags of clothing this past weekend from a freecycler. I pulled out what I wanted and re-freecycled the rest. All I had to spend was the gas to go pick the stuff up. 1 anewbeckiboo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kellyodoran 12 Posted January 12, 2011 I got some Lee jeans at Khol's, with coupons it turned out to cost 10.00! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stateofzen 46 Posted January 13, 2011 Surprisingly, you can find jeans at Macy's and Belk's for the same price as Old Navy. But I get my jeans from Ross. JC Penney and Kohl's are great recs. Do you have a thrift store? I'm thinking about going in the next time I drop off my bigger clothes to check out the jeans section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
