press release: Half-Pint Resale, Madison’s oldest and largest children’s consignment sale, is hosting its semi-annual sale April 29 – May 1. The event is a family tradition for thousands in our community. More than just a way to stretch their budgets, Half-Pint keeps resources and money in our community by allowing consignors to sell their items and shoppers to purchase like-new items at a fraction of the prices in stores. The sale, which takes place twice per year, features children’s clothing and toys for children up to age 12, and is perfect for those who want to raise their families green, or for those on a budget, or for those who just want to participate in this Madison-area tradition.
The 27th semi-annual sale will be open to the public Saturday, April 30, and Sunday, May 1 at the Mandt Center, 400 Mandt Parkway in Stoughton. The event has grown 1000x fold in the over 13 years it’s been open, outgrowing 4 locations before landing at the Mandt Center for the Fall 2021 sale. Admission and parking are always free, and almost all items on Sunday sell for half price. There are hundreds of consignors who sell tens of thousands of items.
Saturday, April 30: 8am – 7pm | Public Sale (Umbrella strollers allowed after Noon)
Sunday, May 1: 8am – 1pm | Half-Price Sale
“I hear from so many families that they have saved thousands of dollars by being a part of Half-Pint Resale,” says organizer Angie Lenius. “Many others are happy just to be green, knowing they are keeping their items local, and in good use by other families.”
In addition to children’s spring/summer clothing and toys, shoppers can find nursing and lactation supplies, cloth diapers, bassinettes, high chairs, baby carriers, and other warmer weather gear. There are additional items for older children, too, including gaming, sporting goods, and books. Items are inspected prior to being allowed onto the sales floor, and are higher quality than the average garage sale, not to mention having a far vaster selection.
Items not sold and donated by consignors will find their ways to homes through local non-profits, including Kindred Kids, a non-profit lending library for children with differing abilities.
