I, too, have made out like a bandit at Consignment sales. My kids are 3 and 1, so they are in sizes that really don't get worn out by others. My strategy has always been to go for the higher end items (smocked, label, etc) and get them for what I would pay for something new at Target. The clothes often look brand new!
Honey- as for your mom's stuff... I think your results may vary. I have lived in several different states, and several different towns in each state, through my adult life. Some cites (Dallas comes to mind) have INCREDIBLE consignment stores for women's clothing, with high traffic through them. Other places, notsomuch. ANother option would be eBay... there are lots of people who look for high end stuff on there to take advantage of a discount. This may be a good avenue for you, especially since you can list them as New With Tags.
