When you don't need brand new, we shop at Goodwill and spend $3 for a pair
of jeans.  The price used to be less, but GW scores have gone more "upscale"
in later years.  It takes some looking and you don't always find what you
need, but overall we luck out and get 80% of our clothes from the GW.  We
don't get out to enough yard sales, but some people have luck at those.
