Getting rid of baby stuff isn't easy.....
Jul. 23rd, 2008 02:48 pmYesterday, I took a Graco Pack & Play and an Arm's Reach cosleeper to the local Once Upon A Child. I stopped over today and found that they had passed (i.e. declined to buy) both items. The Pack & Play has a small hole in the mesh, and the cosleeper is just too worn to be considered "gently used".
I tried to take some baby clothes there last year, but they passed on them too, for cat hair.
There's another consignment store nearby, but they won't accept items unless they're in pristine mint condition.
Why is it so hard to get rid of baby items? What should I do next? I could try donating them and taking the tax writeoff, but I'd rather have the cash. And I'm not in a good location for a yard sale.
