It’s a well-known fact that keeping kids clothed can be expensive. If you’ve made a commitment to reducing, reusing and recycling and being more eco-friendly as a family (in addition to wanting to save a bit of money) consignment is a great way to make that happen. In a time of “fast fashion,” consignment is a great way to slow things down and make wardrobe choices last.
Here are some places to find great consignment kids’ gear in Metro Vancouver.
MacGillycuddy’s Children’s Consignment
This beloved consignment shop, located on the Westside of Vancouver, has thirty years of tiny fashion history. They accept current, on-trend clothing from fashionable and high-end brands and donate all unsold merchandise seasonally to support local and global charities. Looking great for less and supporting the community made easy!
Bean Sprouts
Main Street is where you will find this consignment shop, with a play area for the kids and great savings for parents. Bean Sprouts, which has won many reader’s choice awards in the local press, has been open for 14 years and accepts most items for consignment on a seasonal basis on select days, while things like toys, rubber boots and books are accepted on an ongoing basis space-permitting.
Little Earth Children’s Store
The owners of Little Earth describe their shop as a gathering place for the community. Two moms run this store on Commercial Drive which carries not just consignment items but new items from local small businesses. They pride themselves on being eco-friendly and community-minded.
There are lots of ways to be eco-friendly in Metro Vancouver—and consignment is a great first step on that journey.
