This sale features quality clothing (sizes newborn to teen as well as maternity): equipment such as strollers, car seats and high chairs; books, and toys. The prices are lower than you'll find at other consignment sales because each owner individually prices their items, and doesn't have to share a percentage with the "house." Come early for the best section.

Good through: September 17.
