And particularly with kids clothes. They out grow them so fast they are hardly worn! <BR/><BR/>Thanks for hosting. I do wish that people would only link to new WFMW ideas that they wrote today. I clicked on 4 posts (# 151, 152, 153 and 155) that I had already read because I subscribe to that blog. I often find new blogs I want to subscribe to through these posts but when people are reposting ideas they've written before I loose time in my efficiency.Ashleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212887297321145972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8095068418828488278.post-25552913472701340192009-03-25T15:02:00.000-05:002009-03-25T15:02:00.000-05:00Ooooh, now I want to go thrift store shopping!
