The Plan:

[conuly]

Clothing swapping comms on LJ appear to mostly be defunct - unless I'm missing one?

So instead, I'm going to freemeet tomorrow, followed by stalking stores of cheap and used clothing. Yeah. This'll work.

I better find stuff to bring to Freemeet. Anybody wanna meet up?

Have you tried searching the "free" section on Craigslist NYC? I'm looking there now out of curiosity, and you might find this interesting:

They have a section that also seems to have a lot of really cheap baby/toddler stuff:

Y'know, that should've been really obvious to me. D'oh! Thanks muchly. *hugs*

Aha. Santa!

*giggles*

And I was planning on doing that this year, too (helping, not writing). Actually, next year, I really want to start doing that, teaching Ana this sort of thing, and Evie. That was really missing from our childhood, Jenn's and mine, and... I think we'd've been better off with it. (We didn't have the money to do that much charitable things beyond sharing with friends in family in return for them sharing with us, but we could do *something*, I think)

Hence the giggle - I hope this is resolved by Christmas, though. With luck, I'll be making some money then with my apparently quite-marketable skill of toddler-wrangling.
