Fall Cleanup – Consign My Closet and others

Thanks for the tip, Tuesday Girl!

Consign My Closet

Yard sales are a New England tradition. We are all over things like that, given our… ummmm… frugal nature.

Why brave the weather and the crowds, though? Check out Consign My Closet – from their site:

I am interested, but not sure how consigning works, is it easy?
Preparing items for the sale is easy. Our consignors can quickly enter their items online through our website, it is fast, easy, and fun!!! The inventory system we use also allows you to track your sales online during the event. We upload sales information every evening, so you can easily access information, including which of your items sold, so you can watch your profit grow!

They have an event coming up this weekend in Boxboro:

Consign My Closet – Fall/Winter Back to School Sale
October 8th – 10th, 2010
Boxboro Holiday Inn, Boxboro, MA
