Back to school shopping season is upon us! The cost of all those new clothes, backpacks and school supplies adds up quickly. Children’s resale events are a great way to save. Make room for all your new items by cleaning out your closets to sell or donate items you no longer need, too. (You may even find that by signing up as a consignor, you’re allowed early entry into the sale.)
All of these resales have their own rules about allowing children and strollers, or charging entrance fees. Check their websites for details. This guide is sponsored by the featured sales.
