It's February...Consignment Sale Time!!!

Consignment Sale Season kicks off this week in Charlotte with the mother of all sales, The CMOMs (Charlotte Mothers of Multiples) Spring & Summer Consignment Sale this Saturday at The Park Expo and Conference Center. This sale is HUGE, and it is incredibly well run and super organized. If you're looking for children's or maternity clothing, toys, or gear, this is your place!! Early bird shopping begins at 7:30am (with $2 admission) with FREE admission beginning at 8:30am. Half-price shopping is 12:45-3:00pm. Trust me...you DO NOT want to miss this sale. I'll try to post some preview pictures on our Facebook Page on Friday. Hope you have a wonderful (and a little warmer) week!
