______
Check your local church to see if they have a "Clothes Closet". This is a room in which people bring clothes in and other people can come and take some of these clothes home. It is sort of a clothes swap. Especially great for when you have kids who grow out of their clothes so quickly.

______
When thinking of renting a movie for the family, try your local library first. Ours has a large selection of popular movies besides informational videos that they allow to check out usually at no charge. (Dulcy)

______
"Free" entertainment for both kids & adults is to check out your local bookstore for events. A lot of times they even have snacks & juice - we are going to see the Animaniacs on Friday and the kids are so excited. (Jan)
