Come light. We provide shopping bags, so just bring your photo ID, Visa/MasterCard ($10 minimum) or cash

If possible, leave the kids with grandma or dad ?

Have a flexible list of what you need.

Trace your child’s foot on a piece of cardboard. If it fits in the shoe, it’ll fit your kid!

Bring a piece of string (one set of colors for each kid) that are the length of their inseam, and the circumference of their waist. Helps you know if it’ll fit!

Have a smart phone? Bring it! You can compare prices, get info on items, etc.

Come early. (The best shopping tip is to consign. You’ll shop before the public.) We aren’t a store with merchandise “in the back” waiting to come out. The sooner you shop, the better the selection.

Stick a pen in your pocket. You’ll need it to write your info on the Claim Tickets attached to large items. If it has your name on it, and you have the tear-off portion of the Claim Ticket, it’s yours.

SHARE! Share on Facebook all of your great buys! Tell other moms and dads. Who doesn’t want to save money? New stuff, gently-used stuff, practically new stuff—something for everyone. Enjoy!
