Should we have a childrens ski clothes pass on thread, for all those who are going and want to kit out cheaply, and for us who have grown out gear??

I have seen loads on threads asking about places to buy ski gear, but I have some which is now outgrown and would be happy to pass on/sell for postage or whatever. BUT it is not in the same vein as the 'for sale' boards, so I wondered if we should start a thread on this??

I know I have a few bits for 3 - 4 yr olds, without checking I think I have some black salopettes, a pink ski jkt, a blue and grey all-in-one (v unisex so useful, bought from MN a couple of years ago!!) Actually I have 2 of the all-in-ones, but I wouldneed to see if DD2 fits the larger one, if not I have one in aged 2 - 4 and one in aged 4 - 6. Also have a couple of gap polo nucks that we used as base layers in age 4. May have some gloves too.

Perhaps if anyone has other grown out bits they should post here to pass them on. Ski stuff is hardly ever worn out and is pricey to buy all new. It is bad enough buying the thermals/gloves/goggles/hats/socks without the outer layers too.

For accessories I got stuff from Sainsburys (£5 for ski-gloves) and ASDA. They seemed to be the cheapest places.
