There's something about back to school that makes you want to clean out every closet in the house, kids' rooms included. New backpacks, new shoes, new routines, and suddenly every drawer and bin seems to be begging for a refresh too. So it's pretty perfect timing that fall consignment season is right around the corner, and Savvy Swap Kids is back at Towers Mall October 8th thru 18th to help you do something about it.
If the name Savvy Swap Kids doesn't ring a bell yet, don't worry, you probably already know it. It's the new name for what used to be LFA Kids Consignment. Same great sale, same team, same thousands of kids' items, just a fresh name. So if you've shopped or sold with LFA before, you already know exactly what you're walking into, and it's basically the perfect excuse to finally deal with all those outgrown clothes and forgotten toys piling up around the house.
It Is Time to Clear Out the Closets!
If you've been eyeing that overflowing bin of outgrown clothes or the toy bucket nobody's touched since summer, this is your sign. Savvy Swap Kids has dropped their seller fee down to just $5 for a limited time, so hopping in as a seller this season is about as easy as it gets, and sellers can earn 60% back on everything that sells. All those fall and winter clothes your kids have outgrown, the shoes with barely any wear on them, books, toys, baby gear, it all has a shot at turning into actual cash instead of just taking up space in your garage.
They also give sellers two different ways to participate depending on how involved you want to be, and Savvy Swap handles the merchandising and getting your stuff in front of shoppers either way. So if you've thought about consigning before but figured it sounded like too much work, this might finally be the season to try it, no matter how much time you have to give it.
Selling is great, but let's be honest, half the reason we love these events is the shopping. Kids go through clothes and gear at a wild pace, especially heading into cooler weather. Jackets, jeans, pajamas, shoes, holiday outfits, the list never really stops. Savvy Swap Kids brings together thousands of items in one spot, so instead of bouncing between five different stores or scrolling through a dozen marketplace listings, you can knock out most of your fall shopping in one trip. There's also something pretty satisfying about snagging a great brand or finding the exact size you need for way less than retail. It happens more often than you'd think.
Kids grow out of clothes before they ever wear them out. Toys fall out of favor the second a new interest shows up. Baby gear often has plenty of life left in it long after your family's moved past that stage. Passing those things along means another local family gets some good use out of them, and you get a little breathing room back in your closets and playroom. It's a nice reminder that secondhand doesn't mean worn out, it just means still useful, and still moving through our community instead of sitting in storage.

If selling is on your radar, don't wait until October to start digging through closets. Grab a bin now and toss things in as you come across them, it's a lot less overwhelming that way. And if you're planning to shop, jot down what your kids actually need for the colder months. Just know that no matter how solid your list is, a few surprise finds will probably come home with you too. That's half the fun.
