Way 1 | Buy summer and winter clothes at the end of the season. You can save them for next year. Tell your mother which clothes you need after summer holiday so you can buy them on sale. |
Way 2 | Try to find sales when you need something. For example, you can buy books at book fairs(展销会). They are usually cheaper than the ones in bookstores. You can buy erasers and schoolbags at wholesale(批发) stores. |
