Department stores offer special sale days and coupons for their customers who have their store credit cards. Simply shop at their store during a certain day, purchase items on sale, then receive additional savings by presenting coupons mailed to you. More coupons can be obtained by inquiring at the customer service counter. If you can only use a certain number of coupons per visit, then buy the limit; place the items in your car, then return to purchase more, thus repeating the cycle.

     Look into purchasing clothes from a consignment store. The stores offer quality name brand second hand clothes at a deep discount. A great consideration for clothes that will be worn occasionally, such as: a men's suit for a special occasion, children's clothes that will be outgrown quickly, and baby clothes and supplies.
