Buy stuff cheap for grandkids
A friend who is about to become a first-time grandmother said recently, "You know, Mary, I think I'm going to have to buy a lot of stuff to have at my house when the baby comes." How right she is. When a baby comes for a visit or for child care, it's a lot easier to already have some of that "stuff:" crib, stroller, high chair, etc. These items aren't cheap. But, for new grandparents and parents, help is just two days away. This Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., a consignment sale of children's furniture, toys, clothing and gear will be held in the fellowship hall at First Presbyterian Church at 1621 E. Garrison Blvd. in Gastonia. From noon-2 p.m., prices will be cut 50 percent. Items included are cribs, pack and plays, bassinets, strollers, high chairs, swings, toys, play yards and nursery bedding.
