New consignment sale for women planned in Cary

As Go Ask Mom readers know, I write a lot about local children's consignment sales. I wanted to let you know about a new, upcoming consignment sale just for women.

White tells me she's been shopping children's sales since 1995 and had heard other consignors wonder why there wasn't something for them too.

"I thought it was a great idea and said if it was going to work anywhere, it would work in the Triangle," she tells me. "So here we go!"

The sale accepts clothes in sizes 0 to 3x, along with shoes, handbags, jewelry and accessories. They won't accept clothes bought at stores such as Walmart and Kmart. They will take name brand, designer clothing from stores such as Talbots and Belk. The sale prefers clothing that's no more than four years old, though classic pieces in excellent condition will be accepted.

The sale is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sept 30, and 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. (when some items will be half off), on Oct. 1. Volunteers and consignors will have a chance to shop early. It will be held at the Cary Masonic Lodge, 1142 Southeast Maynard Rd.
