About five dollars each. But that’s because I’m picky. I often see for three dollars but I don’t like it or it has a non kosher animAl.
I get about seven outfits so I can do laundry once a week with one outfit to spare.

For a toddler? Do they never get dirty?

I try for $5-10 just because we don’t have the money for more, but we get a lot of hand me downs BH, and sometimes I do spend more for a piece. Like shabbos, or if I really love something and the kid needs another outfit.

Up to about $40 per top, unless it’sa really good deal, like a bon point top for $50 or something
Usually spend in the 20s though.
Shabbos I’ll spend about $100-150 an outfit max

Yes but I don’t change my toddler every time a bit of ketchup spills. Only if it’s wet or something that needs to be removed immediately . At the end of the day it goes in the hamper
How often do you change your toddler?

I buy mostly in consignment or thrift stores. In Lakewood it's really easy to find beautiful used clothing for very very cheap. I shop in Serendipity and Once Upon a Child and The Red Balloon. I also get some hand-me-downs. I try to keep around 3-5$ per piece. For a dressy dress or outfit or something I just love I'll go up to 10$.

I have double or even triple that number of clothes for my toddler. Maybe 20-25 outfits and pj sets? Plus 2-3 nicer dresses. She's a mess magnet! I feel like I'm constantly doing laundry for her!

Not for a bit of ketchup lol because that would be every half hour. But getting wet or majorly dirty happens often enough. I can’t bank on an outfit staying on all day. Sometimes it does and sometimes I go through 3-4.

I guess my toddler is pretty neat because I hardly find the need to switch in the middle of the day or I change only for bigger stuff.
My kid mostly play with non messy toys and eats pretty neatly
In the summer it is more often because we are outside more.
Maybe I will get one or two more I just need to find a cute one for the right price or hand me down
