Better hand-me-downs
This especially applies to the bigger families out there. If you have a few older siblings, chances are they might be of different sexes. So when the time comes for you to wear your big sister's prized coat that you've been admiring for years, it's still in pretty good shape. By the time your youngest sister gets it, it's in shreds. (Admittedly, the youngest can be a little privileged by being bought brand new clothes, as they're the baby!)
