How much do you spend on clothes per month?

How much do you spend on clothes per month for YOU and YOUR CHILD(REN) Just curious and want to see how I compare.......

Probably $20-30 on average.  Some months I spend more, some months I spend nothing.

Based on our budget, it is supposed to average out to $600 per month ($300 each for me and Jackson).  Some months it's more, but that's okay as long as I spend less the next month.  For our budget, my husband wants me to keep it to averaging out to that amount each month over 12 months.

Too much!!  I am a certified shop-aholic!!!!  I would say anywhere from $300-$500 on myself and probably $300-$500 of my 2 DC combined.  It is disgusting really, I know I need to stop!!!!

MrsStubbs

I would say 200-300. Mostly for DD.

My budget is supposed to be $400 per month for all three of us and I usually end up going over or getting not much for myself. That $400 is really supposed to be for all 3 of our more frivolous expenses, not just clothes, but thta's usually what I spend it on.

on average, probably 200-300...some months it's nothing, and some months more.

I dont buy clothes every month.  I say we roughly spend about 1500-2500 a year for everyone in the family.

Hardly anything!  I buy her clothes for the season at the beginning of that season, and then only pick up things here and there as needed.  I buy things here and there as needed for myself and mh, but it doesn't amount to much.  I wish I had enough disposable income to spend hundreds of dollars a month on clothes!  I can't even imagine!

Yeah, my portion of the budget basically covers my frivolous spending - not necessarily clothes, but makeup, hair products, etc.

Jackson's is also supposed to include diapers and any toys I think, but I buy diapers in bulk amounts so it rarely seems to factor into the budget and toys I rarely buy b/c his grandparents spoil him to death.

Hardly anything, really.  Every now and then I'll go on a shopping spree and spend a couple of hundred dollars on new clothes for either me or DS.........but that certainly doesn't happen every month. 

Most of his clothes are either from the consignment store or bought by grandparents.  I don't buy clothes for myself anymore unless they're on sale, and even then not often.

I actually HATE clothes shopping, with a passion.

No kidding...me, too.

Too much - I'd say around $150-200 lately - hoping to slow that down now that I've stocked up on staples for fall and winter. 

eclaires -what a handsome boy you have!!

berry25

sorry - that was for DC alone not the two of us, but I haven't been shopping for myself much given the economy!

eclaires

Thanks, berry.    I think he's pretty handsome!

Maybe, like, $100 a month averaged out. Sometimes much less, sometimes much more. That is for all 4 of us. DD's already have too much as it is, I don't need to go shopping for even more. lol

I probably spend $20 max on my clothing a month - if I see a shirt on sale I'll get it. I probably spend about $40/month on DD. My mom buys her a lot of clothes, but there's still gaps to fill in. However, I need to spend a little bit more on my own clothes in the next month or two, because I have ONE pair of pants and eventually summer will end and I'll have to wear something other than capris!

$400-$500 per month for me.  For Will, maybe $200ish.
