Where You Can Find a Mom to Mom Sale Near You
Do you feel like you’re constantly buying new clothes for your kids? I do!
Just when I think I’m finally caught up, one of them rips holes in their pants or their toes start poking through their shoes. Or, the seasons change and we need a whole new wardrobe for that reason.
Fortunately for my wallet, Grand Rapids is a hot spot for mom to mom sales, kids consignment stores, and garage sales.
You’ll usually find at least one sale every month of the year, with a concentration of sales in the spring and fall.
We’ve put together a list of where you can find mom to mom sales in West Michigan, as well as several other money-saving resources. Secondhand shoppers rejoice!

West MI Loves Mom 2 Mom Sales!
The Mom to Mom sales in Grand Rapids – and across West Michigan – are popular events that take place during the spring and fall seasons as parents clean out their kids’ closets.
These sales are known for having a wide selection of mid-to-high-quality items offered at a fraction of their typical cost. Because of this, many sales get competitive, with lines forming and shoppers paying extra to gain early admission.
The sales are typically put on by volunteers. Rules, setup, and payment options can vary from one sale to the next because of this.
Here’s a list of some of the regular mom to mom sales in the area:

Upcoming Consignment and Mom to Mom Sales in Greater Grand Rapids
5 Tips For Shopping Consignment Sales
- Bring a friend! It’s much more fun to browse through the racks with a buddy and get an honest opinion on items.
- If you have kids in tow, pack (lots of) snacks and give them a little bit of money to spend.
- Be ready with cash or check. Payment options vary from sale to sale. Also, some sales have an admission fee.
- Before you check out, find a quiet corner to re-evaluate your items. Take that extra few minutes to look over your items carefully and see that you have what you want and need. Most sales have set up quality standards for their sellers, but it’s always good to check for stains, missing buttons or broken zippers.
- Take along a large bag or two. You want to be able to hang on to large and small items as you go; I like to take my giant IKEA bags.

West MI Kids Consignment Stores
Can’t find what you need at a mom to mom sale in West Michigan? It may be time to visit a local kids consignment store.
How Kids Consignment Stores Work
Consignment stores rely on community contributions to fill their sales floor.
Bring in your very gently used items for consideration, and if they seem like a good fit, the store will include your items in their inventory. When your item sells, you get a portion of the sales.
Shopping at Consignment Stores
Consignment stores are NOT thrift stores. They sell high quality, gently used items. It’s where you can get a nice pair of slightly used Bogs boots or Mini Boden.
Items are priced at 50-66% off retail.
Selling Your Items at Consignment Stores
Selling to consignment stores is tricky. Shoppers are not interested in Kohl’s brands or items that have holes or stains or even wear.
Review the store’s consignment policies before bringing in items for consideration. And only bring in your very best! (Ask yourself, would you like to buy this from a consignment store?)
If your kid wore that dress every day, it’s probably not an item for a kids consignment store. However, if they only wore those Merrell sandals like twice last summer, bring them in!
Common commission is 40% of the sale price. (The consignment store makes the other 60%.) You can often either use it for store credit or get a check for your sales.
