I love hand-me-downs and we've gotten so many things for the girls. It's way easier with girls too - I remember my brothers got stains and holes in their clothes so fast, barely anything made it to the next one. I think my MIL would pass down a lot more if we lived closer, but sending boxes to us are ridiculously expensive. If you're ever planning to visit SE Asia, let us know ~ I'm sure she'd ask to send a full suitcase with you!! LOL
