Does anyone else love them as much as I do?
I just scored HUGE for Landen today...I maybe buy one or two things new every season and everything else comes from ebay or consignment shops.

I got 4 Gap shirts
3 Ralph Lauren sweaters
3 Gymbo pullovers
1 The Place Sweater
&
a pair of snow pants.
all for $50 bucks.


I wish this was true for the big boys...but not so much...
 
i LOVE them. You did hit the jackpot! we have a Here We Grow Again. we also had a Klassy Kids but it either moved or went out of business. i'm thinking of doing some christmas shopping there as well as regular stores. like, they all need snowsuits for playing outside. they can be pricey so i'm going to check the consignment shops.
 
yes!! i heart consignment shops! and goodwill. i spent $92 at goodwill a couple days ago and got:
8 pairs of name brand 10 slim jeans for maddie (old navy, candies, mudd, limited etc)
5 shirts for maddie (old navy and limited)
an old navy zip up hoodie thing for lukas
2 pair of boys gap jeans (one for lukas and mason)
14 tiny perfect 0-3 mos. carters things for eydie
a perfect carters blanket for eydie
and 15 or so things for this 5 year old girl at church who was just adopted from argentina:
2 pairs of pants from childrens place
3 little gap shirts
1 pair of target jeans
2 little osh kosh hoodies

and lots more i can't remember both for her and my kids...needless to say i had 3 HUGE bags of name brand clothes for $92!!

i love it!!
 
whoa Lizzy! that's awesome! i go to Goodwill once in awhile, but this one sucks. the one i went to when we lived in Hinesville, GA was very good. i used to get Chloe Ralph Lauren onesies, and Tommy stuff all the time for cheap. i miss GA.
 
i love them too but we don't have any good ones here. when i go to a bigger city i like hitting them though :) those are some awesome good buys you girls got!
 
We don't have them here, but we used to have one in the City. I loved going there!

I would love to have one now, I could get rid of all the bazillions of clothes I have LOL
 
ya, you have to be where people have style...LOL!!! the goodwills out by us happen to be surrounded by people with money so there is always name brand stuff. my sister's boss even found a kate spade bag at another goodwill out here for $2.99!
 
LOVE them!! There is a store in the next town over and all it costs is $10 to fill a garbage bag!!! AWESOME deal :) Especially for baby clothes since they grow out of them sooo fast :)

yeah, I know, I still need to go there to check it out. lol It looks awesome from all the times I have taken stuff for drop off.

When I lived in the city, I took the clothes that the kids outgrew (the ones I didn't pass on to friends anyways) and all their old gear (stroller/car seat combo, playpens, swings, etc) to a consignment store that has been around for years - the owners is such a doll, even arranged sales for me and payments after I had moved away (my ILs and my parents still take stuff in under my name. lol).
 
the goodwill and consignment shoppes go to show that you don't have to be rich to be my girl...sorry had to...no really, they show that there is no excuse to not ALWAYS be in style!
 
I do!!! You have to dig to get great stuff sometimes, but I've found brand new stuff for the kids at some of ours here.
 
Oh gosh, we have 4 or 5 that I LOVE around here (and darn it, just remembered one had a big sale yesterday...and I spent my money here LOL). Between the consignment shops, consignments sales (jbfsale.com), and Ebay, I rarely buy from traditional stores for Rachel...the one exception being pajamas, since they tend to wear out quicker.
 
I :wub: Once Upon A Child...I always get some really great stuff for the twins there...my older ones not as much but that is OK. I do get a lot of clothes from my SIL since her son is only 1.5 years older than the twins and only about 1.5 inches taller than they are but I do need to go check out what they have for x-mas for sure!!!!
 
I do love them. Have not went to one in awhile. My daughter bought like five or six pairs of jeans there last year for school. She actually asked to go to goodwill instead of shopping for new stuff. She also likes this store called Plato's Closet. They sell only namebrand stuff there and it is consignment so most of it is really nice. They are a little more expensive then a thrift store like Goodwill.

The only thing that bugs me about Goodwill is they recently started sorting out the better stuff and pricing it way up. Like a pair of tommy pants which would normally be like 4.99 they might price at 10 dollars just because of the brand. It is still a good deal I guess but it does not matter the condition of the clothes if they are name brand.
 
I love them too! especially nice for children clothes, they are running through them constantly anyway. Of course I'm always looking for a nice sale in a store too. I'm one of those girls that goes to the back of the store first. My favorite place of all to go is vintage shops. :)
