Hidden Treasures at Thrift stores, Consignment shops, and Online.
Home » Babies » Baby Wardrobe » Hidden Treasures at Thrift stores, Consignment shops, and Online.One main reason that you don't have to spend a fortune on baby clothes is that someone else already did and then donated the items to your local thrift store, or is trying to sell the clothes for a fraction of the original price on e-bay or at a local consignment shop. If you want to buy quality items, particularly at thrift shops, it is important to do a little research in department stores or specialty shops and learn what brands appear to be good quality and long-lasting. If you look hard enough in thrift stores, you may run across a precious Baby Lulu or Lilly Pulitzer outfit, as well as Hannah Anderson pajamas or even good 'ole Gap blue jeans for toddlers. At thrift stores, these items will be a few dollars. In consignment shops or online, they will be much more, but considering the original price, you are getting a good deal. One creative and resourceful mom named Catherine from Savannah, Georgia, has figured out how to buy quality clothes for her two boys and daughter online, let the children wear them for the season, and then resale them online for nearly the same price she paid for them the previous year. She also hunts at thrift stores and yard sales for quality items for only a dollar or two. Even if she finds something great that her children cannot wear, she will purchase the item and sell it online. All in all, her clothing budget for her children is almost zero dollars because of her buying and selling schemes!
