Ok I checked what everyone had said and I can't believe no one has mentioned Handme Downs or swaps. I love getting all my DDs clothes from my Sister so now when I see something really cute on a really good sale or at a second hand store I buy hand me UPs. We can afford to give up some clothes when it will come back down to us next year.

Clothing swaps are great, but mostly we're talking about products that you could buy - that's probably why they weren't mentioned in this thread.
