Asbury’s Giggles & Grace consignment sale is back after being canceled in the fall due to COVID-19. While other sales are still not taking place or are going virtual, Asbury United Methodist will open its gym for shoppers March 5-6.
The sale will be smaller because of the current COVID circumstances and only feature children’s clothing (no juniors sizes), children’s shoes and baby essentials (strollers, car seats, cribs, bassinets, bouncer seats, baby carriers, bed rails, toddler beds, jumpers, swings, high chairs, pack-n-plays and exersaucers).
Masks will be required in the church at all times. There will be no guest shopping passes or consignor shopping passes for Thursday night, only volunteer shopping passes. Volunteers must have worked at least two hours to shop early on Thursday.
The sale will take place Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4-8 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. (with select items 50% off). Asbury United Methodist Church is located at 6990 Cahaba Valley Road off Alabama 119. For information, visit asburygigglesandgrace.com.
