Merry Christmas

Hi everyone, I  just wanted to wish everyone a very happy holiday!!  I hope everyone has some quality family time and a very pleasant holiday experience.  Please try not to stress about anything.  That is my plan.  I am going to go with the flow and not sweat the small stuff.  See you in the new year!!

Wow, what a Saturday!!

So we had a sale and Crystal from NatureBumz Co. in on Saturday providing info on her products and on cloth diapering in general.  It was nice to see how many people came in for the sale and Crystal.  I was only here for a bit here and there on Saturday but I know Jen, the gal who was working, was run off of her feet.  Thanks to everyone who came in. 

Today I had a gal in who was upset that she had been driving around and could not find us.  I was wondering how many people have a hard time finding us here on Portage Rd.  I know our signage was much better on Thorold Stone Rd and I would love any ideas anyone may have on how we can stand out so people don't drive by.  The gal who was in today had some really great ideas.  I can't wait to implement them.  Thanks to you mystery lady!!  :)

Black Friday??

So I didn't get a chance to take part in the Black Friday sales this morning but that is quite alright with me.  I caught some of the scenes of stores in Buffalo opening early today.  Wow, some people are real troopers!  I used to like to shop but I don't think I would ever be up for Black Friday.  I was really surprised to see how many of our shoppers today were on their way back from Black Friday shopping.  Anyhow, I hope everyone has a great weekend.  Enjoy your Saturday because the weather is supposed to be lovely. :)

Welcome!

Welcome to The Smiling Mom's little spot here in blogland. We hope you enjoy your stay! We have so many wonderful things to offer! But first things first. What is The Smiling Mom you ask? Well let me tell you. The Smiling Mom is wonderful little shop, a place to come when you have gently used children's and maternity clothes that you won't be using anymore, Those kids grow so fast! Then what are you suppose to do with all their stuff? They're too good to just toss away and who doesn’t like to make a little money in the process!  That’s where we come in! We're a Children's and Maternity Consignment shop located in Niagara Falls. When your items sell, you receive 25-35% of the final sale price. We'll set you up with and account and that will keep track of all your great items that are to be sold. Then once they sell you will be paid in cash! How great is that! Or since you're already here why not shop around and use your cash to buy some great new-to-you items?   It's that simple. So we hope you’ll come in to visit us and stay tuned here for much more to come. There are exciting things happening here at The Smiling Mom and we hope you will be as excited as we are.
