When we had the farm, we were living on a small island, and almost everyone was on low income. Apart from underwear and footwear, I don't think I had more than half-a-dozen items of new clothing in the 15 years, and not much more for the children, it all came from the charity shops, in fact, when the children were at secondary school (on the bigger island where the shops were) one of the 3 was nicknamed "the ******* boutique" because all the secondary pupils with homes on our island bought their clothes there.
Ocassionally there was something saleable to take in!
