Rather than try to locate yard sales individually, your best bet is to figure out which neighborhoods are having community yard sales, and seek out the sales that have quite a few kids clothes.
Don’t be afraid to negotiate the price -it’s expected at a yard sale! You’ll get paid stright away -otherwise yard sales are a seasonal thing -April, May and June are the big yard sale months – in other areas yard sales can go on ‘yearround’, Therefore if your items are listed for less than $ 60. Check for stains and damage before you buy. Nevertheless, it’s also easy to sell your personal items through ThredUP -all you do is order a clean out bag, select your nicest, freshest brand name pieces that you can no longer use, and send them off in the postage ‘prepaid’ bag.
You can shop online for quality used items at less than half of retail costs, with ThredUP.

Hundreds of us have bought a completely new garment, brought it home, washed it, and saw it disintegrate as long as it came out of the dryer. The actual question is. What actually is it now? Lots of people will sell boxes full of clothes, say 20 items, boys size 3T, for one price.
Notice that consignment stores are open yearround, instead of ‘semi annual’ events. They operate much like the consignment sales but are known for only accepting and pricing the nicest, stain and damage free items.
