S. Jersey's Largest Kids Consignment Event - October 2-4 2009
Burlington, NJ (October
02,2009) - Best Dressed for Less Fall/Winter Sale is
happening in Burlington, New Jersey! The BEST way to buy and sell gently used name brand children's clothing and more! Best Dressed for Less is a semi-annual consignment event selling gently used name brand children’s clothing, shoes, books, toys, equipment, furniture, and more. We have almost everything you could need for your children at a small fraction of the price you would pay in a retail store. Our merchandise is screened carefully. Worn, damaged or stained items are removed from the sale and returned to the consignor. Our prices are great! Because Best Dressed for Less is NOT a consignment store, we have very low overhead costs. Therefore, we are able to offer our consignors a very high percentage of their total sales – and they can charge you really LOW prices for their items. Best Dressed for Less brings together buyers and consignors in one location two times each year (Spring and Fall), for several days only. As a result, we have a large selection of seasonal items in one place, at one time. Our computerized bar coding system enables parents to quickly and conveniently sell the children’s things they longer use to someone who needs them! (and at a profit!) PARENTS: If you are looking for amazing deals on gently used children’s items, our sale is the place for you! No more hot summer weekends spent searching garage sales, no more long hours spent on line at ebay. You will never need to shop at overpriced department stores again. We have organized everything in one location, just like a retail store – but without the high prices. Prepare yourself for 3 days of bargain shopping like you have never seen before. CONSIGNORS: Do you have bins of expensive (but outgrown) name brand children’s clothing in your basement? Do you have kids’ items in every corner of your home? Would you love to clear these items out AND recoup a decent portion of your original investment? To register as a consignor or join the mailing list go to www.bestdressedsale.com. This event
will take place in Burlington County on October
02,2009 at Burlington Center Mall 2501 Burlington Mt Holly Rd Burlington Township NJ.
