I think that is a great idea. My sister just open a consignment store in Vernon, BC this year in order to stay with her 1 month old son. She loved it. She got lot of donations from friend and family to start up. However, you need to think about your fixed expenses such as rent. My sister always complained about this. Some month she would make a great sale some month barely anything to cover the rent. That why it is very importance to have some money save up first as a back up plan. Having an open line of credit doesn't hurt either. They just charge you interest and you can pay any extra amount you want. Good luck all the best!

Thanks for your good wishes and input Tida! Yeah - it seems its going to be more difficult than to just put up a shingle and wait for donations to arrive and start selling.... Perhaps I should just wait till spring to even start thinking about this now.... Its so cold in the winter months, and sales would be sluggish, so I wonder if I would even break even let alone donate to charities like I want to....
