Link to Zulilly and Totsy

These are a "groupon" type site for kids clothing, toys, baby items, and stuff for parents too!
The first is Zulily
They have some Melissa & Doug items today and Corky's Kids. Most items are 1/2 off retail! This cute Corky's Kids fish dress is $16.99 reg $28.50. Sale ends 5/26 but don't worry they add new products every day!
Click on this link and it will take you to their site.

I also use Totsy and is very similar in concept.


I will caution that the shipping on Totsy is rather lengthy...so if you need something quickly it isn't your best bet. It took about 2 weeks to get in my last
order. I haven't tried Zulily yet.

This adorable romper is from Hartstrings and is $14.75 normally $34. Sale ends in 14 hours so you'll need to hurry!

Idea for saving $$

Big savings alert..you can wash Lil Swimmers. Yep - throw them in the wash/dryer with the bathing suits (clean ones of course!). They will hold up through about 5 cycles. This saved me a LOT of $$ when we had one hour swim class last summer every day for 2 weeks!
I'm putting in a pack of NEW leftover Lil Swimmers in my booth today (14 size Med 24 to 34 pounds) for $3.99. They are Pooh/Finding Nemo designs (blue).

Resale Shopping Tips

Resale Shopping Tips to Save Money | Metro Parent Michigan

http://www.metroparent.com/Metro-Parent/August-2010/Resale-Shopping-Rules-for-Families/

Six reasons why these metro Detroit and Ann Arbor area shops are a thrifty yet high-quality place for families' back-to-school shopping. Find more thrifty advice in Metro Parent's family finance articles.

My own 2 cents worth...Resale shopping is a great way to save money on children's clothing, is healthier for the environment, and makes Moms a little less nuts when their kids ruin their clothing ;)

Boys size 5 and 6 shorts and Ts

I’ve got a TON of boys size 5 shorts and size 6 Ts going in tomorrow. A lot of CARS, Mickey Mouse, How to Train your Dragon, and chest stripe Ts. Very nice quality…Sonoma, Cherokee, or Carters shorts. Elastic waist and adjustable waist. Come early for the best selection! Shorts are $2.99 and Ts are $1.99.

Sixth Anniversary!!!

Wow! I can hardly believe I've had Booth #98 for six years. It has been such a blessing to be able to open my shop. I've met some incredible families over the years, been able to help a few people down on their luck, had a great time figuring out what my customers wants/needs are, and it has given me a great outlet for my personal "need" while raising my children and staying home. I can say that I wouldn't be where I am now personally, spiritually, emotionally, or financially without taking on this risk. I've dreamed of opening my own shop...and this in a small way has allowed me to fulfill that dream...but still enjoy spending the time I want with my family.
So, to my customers I just want to say a big THANK YOU!!
