Ten Tips for Being Fashionable on a Budget & Special Gap Coupons

Gap! Gap! Gap!  You don't have to be broke and look like a sap.  My daughter rolls her eyes whenever she deems I'm acting like a dork.  I love how TwitterMoms has great opportunities to share tips, spread the news and have others join in the fun.  TwitterMoms and the Gap have teamed up again to find out what are your ten tips for being fashionable on a budget and you can join in by clicking here.


My ten tips for being fashionable but staying on a budget are:

1. Never pay retail and use coupons for purchases.  Before you buy, especially online, search for a coupon to redeem.  It can save you money and/or get you free shipping.
2. Watch for sales before you buy.  If you check around, you might find out the very item you want will be on sale in a few days so wait and see.
3. Outlet shopping is a great way to save a few bucks while still looking stylish.  Don't discount the bargains you can get at those outlet stores.
4. Have a close swap if you have some friends that wear the same size as you.  What better reason to have a party but to talk and trade clothes?
5. Check out your local Yahoo Freecycle group as they give away great clothes sometimes and they are free.
6. Yard sales as they say one man's trash is another person's treasure (or something like that).  
7. Resale shops are another great way to save money while picking up some great bargains.
8. Samples sites are another great alternative in finding the latest fashions at a great price.
9. Refurbish existing clothes with new accessories from places like the Gap.  It's amazing what little things can do to jazz up a wardrobe.
10. Make your own clothes if you are creative and have the abilities.  Some simple clothes are easy to make if you have a sewing machine and the patience.
