For kids clothes you must go to The Purple Cow. They have high-end gently-worn kids clothes, as well as some brand new boutique buy-outs. It's definitely worth a visit. The only problem is they only go up to size 7.
Happy shopping!
I also go to Once Upon a Child. The only problem I have found with them is that though don't seem to buy any clothes and the clothes they do buy back they pay very low on. I guess that is how they make their money though. I have found many cute clothes there for my daughter. Does anybody know of any other resale places in St. Charles?
Hey, Heather. Where's the Purple Cow?

I hit Once Upon Child all the time. I love getting what I consider a fair price on kiddo's clothing (esp the stuff with the tags still on). I totally agree about having a hard time selling stuff to them. Once I bought a set of PJs for my son and after they sat in his drawer for a couple of months ( I decided they weren't soft enough) I tried to sell them back. They wouldn't take them! They said the Pjs were too worn! I was blown away since they had just sold them to me. Oh well. However, another plus is that they sell maternity clothes. I cannot tell you how much money I saved in that department!
We love Once Upon a Child. They just put a new one near us, and we stop in about once a month.
I also love "Family Thrift Center" on Lemay Ferry (I think that's what it's called). It's across from Value City in the old Fashion Gal building.
I just got a ridiculous amount of clothing there for work, I needed suits and most of them were about $6.
Also, on Sunday they have a customer appreciation sale. If you shopped any time that week, you can bring in your receipt and get a discount. If you spend $20 you get 20% off, if you spend $50 you get 50% off......great deal. I think 50% is the max discount, though.
Please go to www.recycledkidssale.com for the upcoming March sale event.
Thanks
