Stop by this popular franchise for a good selection of new and gently used quality clothes, baby equipment, furniture and toys. Parents can also bring in outgrown kiddie goods and receive cash on the spot (generally 20 to 50 per cent of the selling price), or leave with a new stock of supplies, such as clothes by Mexx, Gap and Roots ($8–$12); Graco strollers (under $300); and Melissa and Doug wooden puzzles. Emphasis is placed on quality and safety standards, so expect a high turnover of in-demand baby gates, glider rockers, ExerSaucers and outdoor equipment. A play area for children and a nursing station make this Bayview store an easy place to shop.
