Our Largest SALE EVER
SAVE UP TO 80% OFF BABYBOOM REGULAR PRICES
GIRLS NIGHT OUT!
Our 7th semi-annual sale, the huge “end of winter season” clearance sale is January 28th - Friday night only! This is our largest SALE EVER with thousands of fresh items just put out this week & all marked $1 & $2!! Come for a girls’ night out. This is an unadvertised sale - invitations are sent only to our email list - but you may bring your friends (OK - the guys are welcome too). Free HOT CHOCOLATE.
Starting at 4 pm we discount 25% off our marked price. Every hour the discounts are increased - between 9:30 and 10:00 pm save 80% off our marked prices!
Your discount is based on your “check-out” time. Come early and buy the items you are afraid to miss, and get that hour’s discount… or, check out at a later time for a bigger discount and risk that your item may have already sold! Bring a box, or several, and fill them up as a “shopping cart.” We can reserve your filled box while you continue shopping filling another box, but we cannot “hold” items for pickup during the sale. Our serious sale shoppers often scope out the store during the days leading up to the sale, but be prepared to find some unexpected new surprises!

Spring and Summer Clothing Intake
It is time to empty a lot of hangers to make room for the spring and summer clothing!
We will accept spring and summer clothing beginning Monday February 14 (Valentine’s Day) through Saturday February 19th ONLY - during that one week only.
Other items may be dropped off with your clothing or at any time.
Due to the economy our items are in huge demand. People who never consigned, and who never before bought used, are discovering what we have always known: Buying used and recycling makes SENSE and makes CENTS! Sales continue to increase but our shoppers are pickier about how they spend money. Your items now compete with an enormous number of items on the resale market. Space is limited so while the economy falters we request only the best of the best. Items should be in clean “ready for sale” condition.
Please bring items in cardboard boxes only. We regret that we can no longer accept items in trash bags or plastic bins. Please ensure your account number is placed on the outside and the inside of the box, to prevent “orphan” inventory. You may print your account number onto masking tape to place on equipment, large toys and other large items.
Want to ensure your items are worth more?
We want you to make more money!
Place clean folded clothing in a box, with all buttons and snaps closed. Fold or safety pin items which are an outfit, together.
(Clothing in bags moves around and may not remain as “outfits.” Items do not stay folded and creases set in before they can be placed on hangers. Clothing which is ready to price, in boxes, is easier to process and gets put out first and sells first!)
For the spring/summer intake, do not include fall and winter clothing: polar fleece, velvet, velour, most corduroy, Hallowe’en and Christmas items – we will accept those items in July. Fall and winter clothing will be rejected. Clothing with sizing tags removed, broken zippers, broken snaps, stains or damage will be rejected.
Spring and summer clothing includes: lightweight jackets, rubber boots, bathing suits, water shoes, beachwear, shorts and t-shirts, Capri's, lightweight and Easter dresses, summer hats, spring jackets, and sandals. Jeans and lightweight zip-front hoodies accepted.
Stains can appear long after clothing has been packed due to aging sugars from formula, juice and food. Breastmilk does not yellow fabric with age. Breastfed baby’s clothing is worth an average of 20% more than formula fed baby’s clothing.
Keep toy parts together by placing them in zipper gas or shopping bags tied shut. Large toys with can have bags containing smaller pieces taped onto them. Similar toys (play food, dolls clothes, dinosaurs, dinky cars) can be grouped together in bags.
Equipment and toys are worth more if manuals are included! On top of that - original packaging makes your items more valuable and can sometimes add $5-10 or more to the price! The purchaser’s perception is that the item was cared for well. Used items will often be purchased for baby shower gifts – if it comes with a manual and the original box!
Clean toys sell quicker and for more money. “Magic erasers” clean rub marks and crayon from plastic toys, follow with a clean water rinse to remove any residue.
Although we can accept working electronics such as video game systems, TVs, Ipods and gaming systems – things kids want - we cannot accept general household items. If you aren’t sure whether we accept a special item, just ask us!
Items always in demand: non-recalled cribs, or those with a retrofit kit and paperwork (not installed), playpens, potty seats and rings, high chairs, feeding booster seats, carseats/booster seats for toddlers and preschoolers (not expired), bassinets, jumperoos, jolly jumpers, mega-exersaucers.
