New Once Upon A Child® Opens in Brighton

Brighton (November 26, 2018) – Local parents now have a place that not only puts cash back into their pockets, but sells gently-used children’s clothes, shoes, toys, equipment and more for less! A favorite with families, the new Once Upon A Child® in Brighton opens November 29.

Located at 8675 W. Grand River Ave in Brighton, the new Once Upon A Child is part of a unique national recycling retail chain that specializes in merchandise for infants to pre-teens. The store buys and sells quality, gently-used children’s apparel, shoes, books, baby equipment and furniture, and more.

The grand opening celebration takes place on Thursday, November 29 and continues through Sunday, December 2.

• $10 gift cards for the first 25 people in line
• Raffles every day at 1 p.m.
• 6-8 p.m. Saturday- Bed Time Pajama Party with 25% off pajamas and books
• 2 p.m. Sunday- Special visit from Santa with free photo opportunities for families

“Our store fills a distinct niche in the retail market,” said Shirley Williams, who owns the new Once Upon A Child. “I understand how expensive it is to raise children today and want to offer an affordable option for local families. By purchasing merchandise directly from consumers, we’re able to offer them lower prices and a great opportunity to receive cash on the spot for items they may have otherwise simply given away.”

Unlike a typical consignment store, Once Upon A Child does not require appointments and pays on the spot for items it purchases from consumers. At Once Upon A Child, families are able to buy necessities for their children at great values, and turn their gently-used items into cash.

In addition, Once Upon A Child ensures that all products purchased and sold meet mandatory and voluntary safety standards. Staff members stay up-to-date on current recalled items, immediately pulling all recalled products from shelves and making sure all items purchased are safety-checked to meet current standards.

For questions on the buying process or store hours, the new Once Upon A Child can be reached at 810-360-0033 or by visiting the website.
