10 Tips for Shopping a Children's Consignment Sale

1. Put the date on the calendar! Pass It On Children's Consignment will be held on Sept 22nd, 10am-1pm at Wayne Presbyterian Church. Proceeds donated to Salvation Army Family Residence.

2. Make a list. The list of items for your new bundle of joy can be overwhelming. Make yourself a shopping list so you don't forget anything.

3. Bring a bag. It doesn't take long before your hands get full so bring a bag or laundry basket with you.

4. Write down kids sizes beforehand. It is always helpful to know what size pants, shirts, shoes that you will need for each child. This is especially helpful for grandparents!

5. Think holidays! Why pay full price for Halloween costumes or holiday dresses that are worn once? Those costumes also make for great dress-up fun. Great way to get a jump start on Christmas shopping.

6. Volunteer or Consign. By volunteering or consigning your items, you have the opportunity to shop before the doors open to the general public.

7. Don't forget cash! Pass It On only accepts cash, but there is an ATM nearby if you forget.

8. Buy items for the next season. Go ahead and get great deals on items that you will need for the next season. You will be prepared ahead of time.

9. Go as early as possible. Get in the door early and you will have your pick of high demand items.

10. Empty out the car. You may not be expecting to buy a large item or walk out with a few bags, but you never know what deals you will find! We have seen amazing prices on outdoor toys, furniture, etc. It may be a deal you can't pass up so be able to get it home.
