lilaguide | Hit or Miss

I have bought and sold at this store. I think they have a fairly good selection but it can be hit or miss. On several occassions, when in the store, I have felt the owner is quite rude.

lilaguide | great finds here!

Once Upon a Child is a child clothing and baby gear resale shop. You can find high quality items in good condition here, but it is hit or miss. Be prepared to stop in and look every other week for good deals.

I love the idea of "recycling" baby and kids' stuff. The store is usually chock full of bargains, but it is hit or miss since they have whatever other folks bring in.
