The weather has warmed up, surely you've switched out the kids' closets to their summer wardrobe. Are you like me and you have the stacks of winter things just lying around? Are there some summer items that you know the kids won't wear no matter how hard you try to convince them? The solution? The premier of the Dowd YMCA's All Seasons Consignment Sale, Repurpose for a Purpose, is coming on June 21st. You can register to consign now, and make a little extra summer cash...you know you'll need some for the snack bar at the pool!
Speaking of consignment, I'm working on compiling the list of the Fall & Winter sales that will begin in August. If you know of one happening, please email me (queencitybuzz@gmail.com) with the details.
Blessings,
The Buzz
