READING, Pa. \u2013 An exciting pop-up consignment shop in Reading is giving women the chance to give back, make some cash, and upgrade their wardrobe \u2014 all in one.<\/p>\n
Are you on the hunt for your next standout outfit, without the designer price tag? Or maybe your closet is overflowing, and it’s time to clear some space.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This weekend in Reading, an upscale women’s consignment pop-up shop is helping you do both.<\/p>\n
“As you can see, prices are like $60, dresses that retail for over $200, shorts for $15. These shorts are probably $60,\u201d said Shannon Cunningham, owner of Beauty on a Budget.<\/p>\n
From everyday staples to designer brands, shoppers can score big deals, while local women cash in on clothes they no longer wear.<\/p>\n
“This is all local women in the community that are making money on their clothing that they’re selling,” Cunningham said.<\/p>\n
Inside Beauty on a Budget, which is taking place at Kraras Hall at Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church, it’s more than just shopping \u2014 it’s an experience.<\/p>\n
“It’s all women. We have a lot of fun here. It’s like a girls’ day.” Cunningham said. “We have a lot of like Kate Spade, Lululemon, Tory Burch, all those kinds of things, as well as regular items that you can get\u00a0fill your closet for really cheap.”<\/p>\n
Throughout the weekend they’re expecting close to 1,000 people come through and check out these deals.<\/p>\n
“It’s really spread like wildfire. I started this back in 2020,” Cunningham said.<\/p>\n
Shoppers can even snag deeper discounts as the weekend goes on.<\/p>\n
“This is Target, but it’s $8, and then on half-off day, this will go down to $4.” Cunningham said.<\/p>\n
And anything left behind goes right back into the community.<\/p>\n
“It’s kind of a win-win for everybody. We help local nonprofits. We help women sell items and make money, and then we help the community come in and buy a lot of items for really cheap to fill their closet,\u201d Cunningham said.<\/p>\n
