This week is our local consignment sale. It's something that I got involved with when we first moved here. I figured it gives me a great opportunity to get rid of a lot of things that Ayden and Rylee have outgrown, and I make money to buy them new (to us) things. Not only did I participate as a consigner, but I also volunteered for the sale. I thought it might be a great way to get involved and potentially meet other moms. As it turned out, I didn't really meet and connect with anyone this way, but I still really enjoyed the sale and basically got all of Ayden and Rylee's summer wardrobe needs taken care of.
The past two weeks have been incredibly busy going through all of their outgrown clothes, doing inventory, hanging, and tagging everything. I'm also getting rid of a ton of blankets and toys, in addition to a few other things.
The pre-sale starts Wednesday, and I can't wait! I'm so excited to go shopping, but I'm also a really big nerd that loves to get the daily updates showing all the items of mine that have sold! My goal is to make $300 with this sale, which is about double what I made on the last one.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE consignment sales. Pretty much all of Paloma's clothes are second hand... Good luck with your sale!
ReplyDeleteI miss those sales. We could still participate, but I don't think our stuff would sell because the kids are so old. Good luck! I hope you make money AND find some great things.
