SELL
Selling is super easy by clicking on the tabs below. New consignors will be issued a consignor number, and returning consignors…well you know what to do! Selling is a great way to earn back bucks on your investment of newly purchased kid items. It’s safe, and economical, it’s fun and a great way to recycle!
Why donate your items to resale shops when with a little time and effort you can earn some of your money back?
ABOUT
HANK!
Jenn!
The "Grow Out Sale“ is owned and operated by co owners Hank and Jenn Chapman. We are a husband and wife team who love a great bargain. We have created a community of consignors that seek to support families in the surrounding area through the resale of quality and gently used children’s items.
We strive to be fair in our pricing and business practices so that we may deliver the best possible resale items to the public. We are grandparents to two beautiful grandsons and have two sons and daughters in law that were active duty Army for many years, so we understand the challenges military families meet in raising their children. It is our goal to provide a venue for Army families and those who live in the surrounding north country community with a venue for resale and affordable shopping.
We pride ourselves in treating our consignors with integrity and consideration as we work for you, not for ourselves!
