I am so lucky to have a fantastic consignment store near me. They carry baby items, kids clothing, womens clothing and my favorite cloth diapers and supplies. Twice a year they have a huge end of season sale to clear out unsold items. They run the sale for one day and take an additional 75% off the lowest tagged price.
Needless to say it's a popular event. I think I did pretty well. The total for all the items you see above was a little under $16 and I had a $6.50 consignment credit so I only paid $9 and change for all of what you see. I love a sale like this.
Here are a few of my favorite finds today:
Standard Diaper Pail - I mostly cloth diaper so I don't want or need a pail with all the new bells and whistles. The simpler the better for me and my needs. We had been using two wet bags but not a pail. Lilly now eats a little meat and well...we need a pail to keep it under control.
Gymboree Capris and Shrug- Super cute size 18-24 months
Shopping Cart Cover - First Years. It has lots of attached toys and folds up very small.
GAP Shorts- Super cute with embroirery
Gymboree Silk Dressy Dress - New with tags. I'm already thinking Easter. If it's outgrown before that I know I can sell it on Ebay for a big profit. The original retail is $42
I picked up a few other goodies as well that are shown in the picture and included in the overall cost but are a little more ordinary. If you have a local consignment store you may want to ask them if they run a sale like this.
