My parents don't have that much money and I really need clothes what should I do?

Question

My parents don't have that much money my mom and my dad are working and theres like no money in the bank I really need clothes but I feel bad asking them for money! What should I do? I have no money.

Answer 1

well u can always try to get a job and buy them yourself if u can..

or do u have any family memebers that could give u hand me downs, if not u can ask ur mom and dad for just a little bit of money and go somewhere cheap for clothes

Answer 2

Just wait and make something from your old clothes .

Answer 3

do anything you can.

ask relatives for hand me downs.

talk to your parents about having a garage sale and work hard to organize it and make signs and setting them up on streets around your home pointing the way to your garage sale and gather things around your house that nobody wants or needs anymore. and since you were the one to think of it and organize it you get like seventy five percent of the money. (not all of it because all of the stuff sold wasnt yours)

and buy clothes with that a cheap places.

thats what i would do if i really needed some money.

Answer 4

Well, I would suggest getting your own job: babysit, mow grass, work at a movie theater.

You don't need to shop at the expensive stores: old navy is cheap, target, k-mart, walmart, khols...and the clothes are cute.

good luck, and hope all goes well.

Answer 5

Okay, you're going to hate me, but thrift stores have good clothes for cheap. I have found tons of designer clothes there in my size for cheap. Plus no one will have the same clothes as you and you will have your own style.

Or you could have a garage sale and sell your old clothes. Then you'll have some money to buy clothes.

Answer 6

You could ask bigger friends of yours for clothes they'd grown out of, or ask cousins or siblings or something. Also, if you already have a little big of money, make it go further by going to a cheaper store like Marshalls or TJ Maxx. Even Old Navy isn't too bad.

As for excess money, you could ask your parents for a small budget to h elp you out, or try to get a babysitting job or something similar.

Also, try to get basic pieces such as jeans, neutral skirts and pants, solid shirts, sweaters, etc. These pieces will get you furtehr becasue they'll go with more.
