Maybe give some free advice about: Fashion and Styles?
Goodness! There's Plato's Closet, for one. Good will, too. Target and possibly Wal-Mart have "graphic tees", and Kohl's is a little cheaper than other stores (but not by much). Gap and Old Navy are sort of cheap (their prices are rising, though..unfortunately =[).
Today I went to the mall and found a store that I now love. It's like an Abercrombie, Hollister, or American Eagle, but about 2 or 3 times cheaper. AEROPOSTALE. I bought a very nice collar shirt for $12.99! At Abercrombie, you would spend at LEAST $30. Hats were only $6! At Hollister, they're $15 and up. Tee-shirts and "graphic tees" were 2 for $20! Honestly, go and see if you like their clothes. If not, then try out the other places I mentioned.

Goodwill is a good place for cheap clothes, but sometimes its hard to find something you like. I don't live in Ohio, so I'm not sure what you have there. Wal-Mart is a good place, but I'm not sure if you have that. Also, you can go to your favorite stores and go to the clearance section, because there is usually funky clothing there. Good luck and have fun =]

Try thrift shopping.

Goodwill, The Salvation Army, any used clothes/thrift store. You could also try to find outlets for stores that you like. I don't live in Ohio, but there are bound to be outlet stores or warehouses where you can buy high quality clothes for cheap. You can usually find these stores on the outskirts of cities. If you can sew, then you can buy fabric and make your own clothes. Good Luck.

Try some resale shops in your area. They usually have last years designer clothes for really cheap. These are shops owned by individuals and what happens is people who have really expensive clothes take them there and sell them to the store owner and then the store owner turns around and sells these clothes to us. Resale shops don't take any clothing that is not in excellent (like new) condition and it has to be dry cleaned before they will take it. They will also take vintage clothing that is in excellent condition and this is where you will find your really different looks. The 80's had a punk era and this would fall under the vintage look. Where to find these stores? Look in your local yellow pages. The kind I bet you are looking for would be in your local funky district. Every city has one. You know the areas where the head shops are and a lot of young people who would be viewed as different hang out there. Here in Atlanta it would be "Little Five Points", in New York, Greenwich Village, but again all cities have an area like this. These areas are really fun to visit now and again and they are mind expanding. Have fun hunting and where ever you shop let your imagination soar.
Namaste!

Have you tried Gabriel brothers? i'm not sure if they have one near you but i live in Pittsburgh PA and we have 2 of them and i know they are all over the country
i searched ohio and i saw they had them in these places
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
anyways they have what i call "reject clothes" and its basically clothes that name brand places couldnt sell of had small holes in them or whatever
what they have in stores varies from store to store but i love going there and i usually can get a few outfits for under $50.
know the only thing im unsure of is if they have your style of clothes. the one i go to most often isnt in a great area so they have a mix of preppy and ghetto stuff. and by my picture you can prob tell i usually just go there to check out their hollister and abercrombie stuff but i have to tell you they are huge and im sure yuo can find something
best of luck!
