Consignment News

Consignment update:


Pls note: We are not able to take any size 4, 10 or 14 for children.  We are also not able to take more women's clothing right now.
We DO need more very cool, Abercrombie/Hollister-type stuff for the 16/18/20 boys and young men, and for the junior-size girls.


Hint: This season we have been very busy and the consignment lines have sometimes taken over an hour.  We apologize for the times that the wait is so long, but do not have the space to keep your left-overs (the items we did not accept) so we really need you to either wait or you can come back and get them before we close, on the same day.  Thank you for your understanding.  We do know that we need to open another shop (or two) but we have to do the best we can with the space we currently have, for this season.  :)  Thank you, also, for helping us to make Mother & Child such a great place!
Please remember that it is always best to call when you are on your way in order to confirm that we are able to take whatever it is that you have to consign. We do answer the telephone starting at 9AM.

We ask that you be sure of the following:
   1. all items have been freshly and thoroughly cleaned;
   2. you have not packed more than 30 items; and
   3. you have called, on the day you are coming, to confirm
          that we can take more of what you have to bring.

It is especially important, at this time of year,
1.that you call before you leave the house to bring consignments,
    to ask if we have room for more of what you want to bring.
           603 886 6727 
    (Consider putting our telephone number into your cell phone?
    and/or ask us for a business card which shows our hours.)
     We do answer the telephone starting at 9 AM.
2. that you look at , sort, and count your consignment items at home,
     instead of trying to sort them in the aisles at Mother & Child.

We usually look through consignments:
  Mon 10 - 6:30
  Wed 10 - 6:30
  Fri 10 - 6:30
  Sat 10 - 6:30


Note:  We are no longer accepting Halloween for this year, and now is the best time to bring your holiday outfits.

Remember, we no longer have a consignment toy department.  (There were too many recall issues making it impossible for us to know what toys are and are not OK to sell.)

becca Get to know the Girls (and boy too)!!!!
We know you missed us but we have barely been able to take consignments let alone take interviews!   However, as the leaves change colors and the seasons change we realize that our staff has been changing just as much!  Because we have been so busy we have hired quite a few new members to our team, in attempts to keep up.   While they have been busy pricing clothes, ticketing, hanging or helping our customers in the store, we thought we would take a quick break to interview and introduce them all to you.  We still have some veterans to introduce you to but we thought we'd introduce some newbies as well!  We hope this helps you get to know them so please feel free to come introduce yourself to them!
 
Introducing: Becca Reid
                Becca is one of the newest employees to join our team but we are already big fans.  She may not be our most talkative employee but she is one of our funniest.  Sarcastic and fun, she has a quick wit and some crazy stories we can barely believe. Although she is so thin she loves to eat and her favorite food is bacon!  She is also one of our most versatile employees.  Although ticketing clothing is her favorite thing to do, she can often be seen doing intakes, running the register or managing the dressing room.  Where ever she is she would love to talk to you!  Although it might take a bit to get this shy one talking, once you do you won't be sorry!  We love having Becca on the team and hope that she will be here for a long time.
Becca describes her style as preppy-surfer.  Like many of our customers she loves the Hollister brand, and if you ask us, she would prefer to live in California.  She loves being tan and wearing her skirts with flip-flops.  She also likes buying cool shirts for her dad, to make sure he stays in style.  Her favorite thing about shopping at Mother and Child is that she can get the great name brands, like Abercrombie and Hollister, at great prices, less than half the price!  She loves getting her Hollister jeans, sometimes over $80 new, for under $15 at the store!  She also loves browsing the new merchandise at the front for new jewelry too!
Where is your dream vacation?
Puerto Rico
Describe your perfect day.
A day at the beach with my friends and then a bonfire (See we told you she'd be a great Cali girl)
What is your advice to Mother and Child customers?
Come back weekly because there is always so much new merchandise coming in, especially now!
If you could live the life of any character who would it be?
Harry Potter
What is your advice to young girls?
Clean out your closets often
Tell us something interesting about yourself.
Because I was such a good swimmer, I was a qualified lifeguard at age 12.  I also hate wearing shoes and would prefer to be barefoot all the time.  I hate snakes, stink bugs and when people try to be something they are not.
