I love Once Upon A Child. I go to the one in Countryside, but I know there is one at the Largo Mall. I have bought a playpen, walker, toys, and tons of clothes there. The clothes are never stained or ripped and are mostly brand names. The playpen and walker looked brand new. You should definitely check them out :)

The ones I go to on a regular basis are Once Upon a Child in Largo Mall, Sweet Peas on Seminole Blvd, south of Park Blvd, and two more on Seminole Blvd but I don't know thier names :). Basically if you take Park Blvd to Seminole Blvd, there are 3 consignment shops for babies/toddlers between Ulmerton and Park Blvd. Once Upon a Child is in Largo mall and can't be seen from the road, but the other two you can't miss as they always have large yard toys, gyms, strollers, pack n plays, out front. I have purchased items from all and have been happy with my purchases. I have been to just about all of the ones mention excluding the Lutz area and they are all good too. Good luck!!

I have shopped at Baby Boomerang, on Kennedy Ave. It is fabulous! The prices are very reasonable and they tend to have a lot of brand name clothing/toys/accessories that are almost always in like-new condition. They also sell larger items such as jogging strollers, cribs, etc. It is in a large, old, bungalow house and is always very clean and well-organized.

I shop for my grandkids at Once Upon a Child in Brandon. There is also one over on Parson right across from the hospital that has real nice items. Kids wear items for such a short period that it so costly to buy new items all the time. It pays to go to consignment stores. Many times you can still find new items that kids never got to wear because they grew so fast. I have found many nice items at Once Upon a Child, and they are very picky about the clothes they take - they require you to bring them clean folded and in a laundry basket. If there is any stains / or if they are dingy they will not take them. So they assure that they sell only good items. Good Luck Shopping.

I have had alot of luck at Stellie Bellie's in St. Pete. It is off of 4th Street and about 28th Ave. N. They have a wide variety and a good selection. They have a 50% off all clothing sale once a Qtr. that is great.

Hi

I love "M. & Me Boutique" on 66th Street N in Pinellas Park. If they don't have what I want (which is rare), they always will take my # and call me when they find it.

Good luck

I shop consignment stores. Sometimes things are better to buy new then used. I have gone to places like the Once upon a child in brandon. I have only bought clothes and one glider. Had to take the Glider back, it broke when I first used it. Also there is another place called Olivia's Closet in Litha. I love going out there. They have some really nice baby things. Some new, some used. They are a small shop and kind of a ways away from me, but I definitely recommend them. Good luck in your shopping!

Baby to Baby Consignment is now open 7 days a week. Check it out if you get a chance.

Hi M..
I work part-time from home, which allows me to be at home w/ my little girl (justine-will be 1 on friday!) My mother-in-law, who lives in Land-o-Lakes started the consignment thing. I could not believe the things she was getting (including clothes, toys and books). Most still had tags on them! So, I started checking out consignments around me and what a great idea! Justine has grown so fast-she has been in 24mth clothes since she was 10mths. I couldn't keep up her-especially w/ the seasons changing. Reruns for little ones is on the corner of Memorial & Hillsborough (they have a website too). Yes, they are hit or miss sometimes-but can have really nice things. Her easter dress came from consignment and was brand new! So-that has been my experience, Good Luck!

I live at consignment shops. I think they are the best way to get wonderfully good clothes at great prices. The two I like the best are Little Lambs (on 41 near 54 in Lutz/Land o Lakes) and Little Amici in the pebble creek stip mall on Bruce B Downs in New Tampa. I have also been to Baby Boomerang, and others, but some times they have higher prices. Hope this helps!

I don't know where you live, I am in St. Pete and have utilized a consignment shop called Sugar Babies on 16th St. and around 30th Ave. N. I personally like the shop and the ladies who run it.
I read that you are a preschool teacher, as a special offer to you and your collegues I would like to offer you all a pampering session with facials and makeovers. I am a Sales Director with Mary Kay and my daughter is in preschool and I like to take care of those who take care of our children.

Dear M.,
I go to Little Lambs in Lutz/Land O lakes. It is great and I go often. I have bought clothes, toys, books. Take Florida Ave North until it goes through Lutz and crosses over County Line Road where it is just a little bit on the right. K.

My mother and I love going to the seasonal consignment sales crazymommasconsignments.com and fancypantssale.com as well as the other consignment shops mentioned in the previous posts. One day, we'll probably be sending our items to consignment!
