Twice a year, a corner of the Greeley Mall at 2050 Greeley Mall in Greeley, Colorado, transforms into one of northern Colorado’s largest pop up marketplaces for kids clothing, shoes, and toys, run under the name Next Size Up Kids Consignment Sale Event. The concept is straightforward and increasingly popular with budget minded parents: families who consign register their outgrown items, price them, and either sell them directly during the event or hand off pricing and tagging to the sale’s own Drop and Go tagging service for a fee. Everything that comes through the door gets a quality check first, with staff inspecting for stains, damage, and wear before it ever reaches the sales floor, so shoppers browsing racks and bins are working through pre screened merchandise rather than guessing at condition.
For sellers, the event also runs a Quick Buy Program, which lets a consignor sell items outright to the sale organizers rather than waiting to see whether a shopper picks them up during the event window, and any items that do not sell can be donated locally rather than hauled back home. For shoppers, the rules are simple and clearly stated up front: all sales are final, with no returns, exchanges, or refunds once an item leaves the building, and buyers are asked to bring their own bags or bins since the event does not supply them. That combination of low prices, quality control, and a hard deadline built around a single fall weekend event is what has made the sale a recurring fixture on the calendars of Weld County parents looking to refresh a growing kid’s wardrobe without paying retail.
The sale has earned outside recognition for that model, having been voted Colorado’s best consignment sale multiple times, including in 2021, 2022, and 2025, by the Consignment Mommies network that tracks sales like this across the state. That kind of repeat recognition, rather than a single one off mention, is a meaningful signal in a category where new pop up sales come and go every season. The event maintains an active presence across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Threads, using those channels to announce exact sale dates, share sneak peeks of inventory, and run a text club that alerts shoppers and sellers to deadlines for registration, drop off, and pickup.
Location wise, shopping inside the Greeley Mall gives the event built in parking and easy access for families coming from around Weld County, and the mall setting means shoppers can pair a stop at the sale with other errands in the same trip. Because this is a seasonal pop up rather than a year round storefront, exact hours run only across the sale’s short weekend window, most recently scheduled for late September, and interested sellers and shoppers are encouraged to follow the social accounts or call 970-590-4433 for the current schedule and registration deadlines.
Next Size Up Kids Consignment Sale Event is a seasonal, quality checked childrens clothing, shoe, and toy consignment sale held inside the Greeley Mall in Greeley, Colorado, repeatedly voted one of Colorado’s best consignment sales and built around a simple model of pre screened secondhand kids gear at a fraction of retail prices.
