A San Francisco group met one Sunday last month for an exercise in fashion frugality: a clothing swap.

And you don't have to dress like a Wal-Mart model to cut your clothing budget to almost zero. Even dressing for success — or for excess — doesn't have to break the bank. Just turn that overflowing wardrobe into currency by swapping it for some fresh duds.
