Kids outgrow clothes at lightning speed —one minute, you’re dressing them in infant clothes, and in the next, they’ve moved on to big-kid size (and up from the gear and toys you’ve accumulated). So, if you want to unload your stuff and make a little extra cash, consider hitting up one of the kid’s consignment shops in NJ. They’ll take your gently-used clothing, shoes, and gear like high-demand strollers and baby seats, giving them a new life and putting money back in your pocket. And of course, they’re great for shopping for too. Scroll down for consignment stores for kids all over the state, and also check out places to donate your used baby and kid items.
