Consign49 Spring 2023 Consignment Event April 13th-17th
Contributed by Ryanne Ori
Do these sunny, longer days have you in the mood for warmer weather along with a seasonal closet refresh? How would you like to shop from a selection of thousands of high-quality clothing and décor items at 60-90% off retail prices, while also directly supporting local community members! Spring is just around the corner, and so is the 20th semi-annual Consign49 Consignment Sale!
Consign49 hosts a community consignment event each spring and fall, in which over 300 local community members bring new and gently used clothing, accessories, and home décor items together to form a large-scale resale pop-up. Each consignor individually prices and prepares each item, and items are dropped off approximately one day before the sale begins. Consign49 Team Members then organize all items, so everything can be easily shopped according to category and size. There is also a dedicated boutique section, in which local boutiques have discount and clearance items for sale. In addition, there is a “vendor row” where local businesses will have booths for sharing their products and services.
Consign49 is a smart, sustainable way to shop, earn money, and extend the life cycle of high-quality items! Consignors are motivated to do some spring cleaning, while also earning some extra cash. Shoppers get to browse a huge selection of brand names and much needed seasonal items, for a fraction of retail prices. Additionally, many items that go unsold at the end of the event will be donated to local charities in need. For the spring event, a large portion of donations will be going to the My House Foundation to support programs for homeless youth in the Mat-Su Valley.
The Consign49 Spring 2023 Consignment Sale will be held April 13-17 at Raven Hall at the Alaska State Fairgrounds in Palmer, Alaska. Admission and parking are free, all major credit cards are accepted, and dressing rooms will be provided. Event hours are 9am – 8pm, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and from 9am – 7pm on Sunday. On Sunday, April 16th, many remaining items will be marked half-price, depending on whether the individual consignor has chosen to put the item into the half-price sale. Additionally, this spring event marks the 10 year anniversary of Consign49 events! The spring event will be extended to Monday, April 17th from 9am – 3pm for a special anniversary sale event. Any remaining sale items will have even further discounts applied!
