Local consignment shops...a great alternative

Looking for good deals on kids’ clothes and other goods? Secondhand shops, thrift stores, and consignment shops may be the way to go. Not only do they offer top brands at affordable prices, but also shopping secondhand is great for the environment since it extends the use of existing goods. Supporting the stores also can be great for the community, since consignment shops typically split the proceeds of a sale with the original donor of the item. Also, thrift stores tend to be largely volunteer-run and normally donate proceeds from sales to charitable causes.

If you’re about to become a parent or know someone who is, these shops often sell kids clothes and essential baby gear like strollers, highchairs and other baby merchandise at wonderfully discounted prices. Have a ball and shop smartly!
