Recession Proof Your Budget....How to Afford New Underwear or Clothes

It was last week when I was folding laundry that I noticed the white elastic showing on the waist of my blue underwear and the 'air' holes in the backend.  Guess it's time for some new 'hinder covering'.  I first checked at Online Auction but couldn't find my brand.

I further searched....JC Penney was next...yep, I found them........$18.00 a pair. Were these now special made out of 2000 thread count cotton? Nope. It's gonna take some serious budgeting to come up with enough coins to buy a pair and a spare!

That's truly when it dawned on me......it's true.....the dollar is shrinking....

I have discovered some men's boxers that are new (I bought some for my son-in-law) and they are a bargain......take a look.... $2.99 for 3 pair...Price can't be beat! CLICK HERE to View This Item offered by yogibear66.

Well that takes care of the husband.   What else can I find that will help recession proof my budget.  There is certainly nothing wrong with reusing or re-purposing gently used clothing.  Quite often new clothing can be found at a fraction of the original price.
