Back to School Fashion:
You don’t have to break the bank to buy your child a new wardrobe for school. Luckily, Bucks County offers parents a wide selection of thrift, consignment, and regular clothing stores to suit every family’s need and budget.
Thrift, Consignment, & Clothing Stores
Kids seem to grow a size bigger every day and trying to buy clothes that keep up with them can really take a bite out of your budget. Consignment and thrift stores offer a great alternative because you can buy well-cared-for clothes at a fraction of their new retail price.
