GARAGE SALES - GARAGE SALES - GARAGE SALES!
Spend a few bucks on gas and drive to the upper-middle class suburbs nearest you. Map out a good half-dozen or so garage sales on a given day. Check the paper for the ones that are in the right area and specifically list children's clothing.
You will generally pay between 5-cents to twenty-five cents on-the-dollar for top-quality baby clothes. (Baby Gap, Children's Place, Gymboree, etc.) What many new parents don't realize is how LITTLE wear children's clothing receives before the children are older than two or three. Most of this stuff will look brand new ... in fact, many times we buy garage sale clothing with the tags still on!
ANOTHER good option is to check around for annual or semi-annual CHURCH SALES ... many city churches have a huge sale a couple of times a year where all of the members bring in clothing to sell, and these can also be goldmines!
Believe it or not, if you are mindful of how much you spend on shipping, you can sometimes get great clothing deals on eBay as well ... it usually helps to buy in "lots" where you are purchasing a bundle of clothes in a single auction.
Good luck!

There are many good quality low priced baby cloths to be found in consignment stores. Many times they have 1/2 price days. You can find local ones in your yellow pages.
I've also bought very good quality, name brand baby cloths from Craig's list and was very happy with the price I paid for the amount of cloths I got.
You can also try garage sales and the Goodwill/second hand stores. Especially during the first year, a baby may only wear something once and it's too small. I even find lots of items with the tags still on them.

try finding a consignment shop in your area. Most of those kinds of stores sell baby clothes, and most of the clothes are like new. Babies outgrow there clothes to fast to ruin them! You can get name brand outfits for dirt cheap!

Try a thrift/second-hand store. Depending on where you live, there may be some outlet stores as well.
Ebay is another choice.

Second hand stores have plenty of great, used clothes. You can take them home and wash them again.

garage sales

put a sign up in a church or grocery store and I bet ssomeone would be willing to give you a deal....a church would probably do it for free.
