Awesome Money Saving Kid's Clothes and Book Swap - $5 Free + More!

If you have young kids, this is such a great program.  I can remember my kids having so many outfits that they were only able to wear one time before they had grown out of them.  Even though I frequented consignment shops, I wish there was a program like this when they were growing up.  Not only do they swap clothing, but now they swap books and toys too.

Through June 14, thredUP will pay you $5 in swap credits for your used books. Credit can be used towards thousands of boxes full of pre-loved clothes, toys, or books listed by other thredUP moms. Plus, you'll also receive a Summer Reading Package worth over $40 for simply recycling used books on thredUP. This book swap is perfect for this time of the year. Families can pass on their pre-loved books and get a box of titles that are new to them. It's also a great way to live green while keeping the kids busy this long hot summer reading some new entertaining books.

Here is some additional information about the program from the thredUP website.

At thredUP we are committed to helping you exchange fantastic pre-loved clothes and toys. Real world clothing swaps are time consuming and hard to organize. We’ve created one for you that’s always available and always being updated with new listings from parents just like you.  Our list of clothes and toy boxes are always changing as members regularly swap outgrown clothes and toys, so if you find something you like, you better grab it!

thredUP is the best way to clear out your kids clothes and toys that they no longer use. Take the clothes and toys your child has outgrown and prepare to thredUP—all on your schedule (monthly, quarterly, seasonally, annually). We've found that most parents list new boxes regularly once they learn how easy it is to do.  Building a box on thredUP is simple and takes just minutes. Give details about the clothes you have in our "Build a Box" form. First, tell us the size, the season and types of items, then the brands, the primary colors and add an optional note if you like. You can even build a specialty box containing items such as Halloween costumes, Boy Scouts uniforms, clothes for twins, etc. No pictures or lengthy itemization required.  thredUP's US Postal Service integration makes shipping boxes easy.
