Clothing inventory


To really save money...shop out of season. Summer clothes are going on sale now. During my inventory, I noticed my husbands short sleeve polo shirts were starting to look worn. So I went shopping and found a great deal at a Hamricks store.
They had men's polo collared shirts for $5.98 each! The shirts are 60/40 poly cotton, preshrunk, and I purchased 5 of them for him to wear to work.
Here is a great tip for setting the color in shirts and really keeps them from fading.
Before washing place the shirt in a bowl of white vinegar and let soak for an hour. Ring out vinegar and then wash in cold water.
The vinegar sets the color in the fabric. I do this for all my new colored clothing.
