Great store! This concept makes so much sense--why buy new when you can thrift baby clothes that…read morethey'll only wear a few times before outgrowing them? Even better, you can bring items back to sell once you're done with them (as long as they are in season and current style). The prices are also noticeably lower than many other thrift stores. A few helpful things I learned from the owners: * Bring items that are currently in season * Make sure everything is clean (of course!) * They may not be able to accept everything, since they also purchase items from other sellers They also carry some new clothing and toys. I especially love the Bird & Bean and Dumpling pajamas--I've bought them as gifts for several people. On top of that, they offer books and maternity wear, which makes it a really well-rounded shop. Also lovely local owners that are mamas. Support Local.

We recently ran into a serious issue with our old Cybex car seat, the rotation mechanism completely…read morefroze, making it just impossible to remove from the car. After multiple unsuccessful (and stressful) attempts to get help from Cybex's after-sales service, we were honestly close to cutting the seat belt just to free the seat and replace it. Before taking that drastic step, we decided to try Beep Beep... and we're so glad we did. Karli was incredibly helpful over email and shared a curated list of recommended car seats so we wouldn't have to spend days researching again. She truly saved us time and stress. Ben was able to fit us in for the last appointment of the day, and he was absolutely wonderful.. kind, skilled, experienced, and just a genuinely good person. He took his time evaluating the issue with our old seat and ultimately decided it needed to be removed. Although he apologized for not being able to fix it, we already knew it was beyond repair. What impressed us most was how carefully and professionally he handled everything. Ben managed to dismantle the old seat from the back without causing any damage to our car, and then installed the new one in about 20 minutes. Every step was seamless. We left feeling incredibly relieved and grateful. Beep Beep... is such a unique business, and our experience proves just how amazing it truly is. Highly recommended!

I was nearby and told myself, " It's either now or you're ordering online and waiting for shipping time." We don't all use amazon prime for everything - the majority of items though, yes! I walked in and went straight to the body care/skin care section on the right. There was a large stock of lotions, but not so much the face roller and ice roller. I got the last of each. There weren't many cashiers when i got to the line, but they called another associate to the register and she was getting through the line fast. I was in line for no more than 5 minutes with about 7 customers ahead of me. It was an average experience, hence the 3 stars.
