Spring is on it's way! That is what I keep telling myself anyways. At least the Spring Consignment Sales are coming... I'm a big fan of consignment sales for many reasons. Not only is it a great way to save, it's a great way to earn a little cash for your gently used (sometimes new with tag!) items.
The Clothesline (Bon Air) just posted the dates for their Spring Sale, February 24-26. This sale is one of my favorites. This is always a great consigning, volunteering, and shopping experience. For consignors, another plus is the convenience of transferring inventory between other sales that use the same online tagging system. You can
register for the spring sale now as a consignor, worker, or new mom. If you sign up to work at least one shift by Tuesday February 1, 2011 you will receive an additional $5.00 gift certificate to our February sale! If you decide to consign or work this sale, I'd love to refer you. Just say Tara Douglas, consignor 1511 referred you. Check out
What's New for the sale for additional details.
