How It Works
*
You bring your items to consign in a 22
gallon plastic bin (or less). Only 1 bin at
a time will be accepted. All clothing items
must be clean and folded neatly.
If this is your first
visit, you'll pay a $15.00 fee. This will be
paid annually.
* We select and price
items based on quality, style and demand.
* You will receive 40%
of items priced under $30. You will receive
50% of items priced $30 and over.
* Items will be marked
down 15% after 30 days, 25% after 60 days
and 50% after 75 days.
* Your items will stay
in the store for 90 days. At the end of this
time you may choose to pick up your unsold
items or have us donate them to Children &
Families of Iowa.
* You may check your
account by: going to our website, calling or
coming into the store. You will receive a
check for amounts over $15 and cash for
anything under $15. You may also use your
money as in-store credit!
* If you would like
your check mailed to you instead of coming
into the store, we can mail it for a $2.75
charge. This will be taken off your account.

Helpful Hints
*
The better your item looks, the better it
will sell, freshly laundered and winkle
free.
* Putting a dryer sheet
in with your bin helps clothes keep a fresh
scent.
* Grandma's secret spot
remover ( sold at both Me-n-Mommy To Be
Locations ) will get out almost any stain
* Marking your larger
items with a sticky note or a piece of tape
will help to ensure that your items get
entered under the correct number.
