Northern Va consignment sale --THIS WEEKEND

Super-sized Northern Virginia consignment sale begins Saturday!

From the latest weather forecast, and this week’s temperatures alone, it’s clear winter isn’t going away anytime soon. Don’t miss this opportunity to stock up on bargains that will keep your children (newborns to college-aged) warm all season long and even has offerings for mommas-to-be!

Small Change, the family-owned and operated consignment store in the Lake Anne Village Center, is having its annual ½ off winter clothing sale, beginning Saturday! Winter coats retailing for $80 can be snatched up for as little as $20! And unlike many retailers, the shop has a large supply of winter boots, snow pants and other winter accessories – just in time for the next snow storm.

Owner Susann Gerstein, who opened the shop in 1981, said she only accepts clothing that is in “wonderful condition.” Some families are in their second and even third generation of consigning with her. Items likely to go fast include Abercrombie jeans (sized toddler to teen) and Hanna Anderson pajamas.

The Washington Post featured Small Change last year and the store just celebrated its 28th year in its original Reston-area location. Small Change will be open 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. Saturday; normal business hours are 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. Tuesday – Saturday. Gerstein recommends getting a babysitter, if possible, since the store is usually packed with bargain hunters who pile the clothes on as fast as they can!

For more information visit the website here; for directions to the store see below.


Directions from 495
Take the Dulles Toll Road west to Wiehle Ave. Exit.
Turn right on Wiehle Ave.
Go approximately 1.5 miles then turn left on Baron Cameron Ave.
The next traffic light is Village Road.
Village Road is a short street (½-block long). At the stop sign, look left and you'll see a sign for the Lake Anne Village Center. When you enter the parking lot it will seem wrong because you'll be facing the back of brick buildings.
Park and walk into the Plaza.
The shops wrap around the Lake.
