Sports gear
If you want to reduce some of the costs of youth sports gear, opt for buying used sports gear. “Brand new sports gear can be quite pricey,” says Skirboll. “Particularly when buying for kids that are growing and they’d need to eventually get a larger size, or maybe they just don’t end up loving the sport, this is something one should consider buying used. Check out retailers like 2nd Time Sports or Play It Again Sports to find used, intact sporting goods, and you can then even sell it back to them later depending on your need.”
