We’re taking a buying pause!

No Buy January at Mama Goose & Jillian’s Drawers

What is No Buy January?
We will be taking a month-long pause from buying in items for both stores.

That’s such a long time! Why?
We want to take this time to use our resources and people-power to catch up on all the goodies already dropped off, balance inventory, and tackle other tasks in store!

When will you start buying again?
We will begin buying again on Feb. 1, 2024, at which time we will be buying in limited winter clothing items and other gear. We encourage you to give us a call to schedule an appointment for February!

Updated Selling Protocols for 2023!

As many of you have seen, we are getting so many items in from our wonderful community that we run out of space and can’t keep up a good pace! We are constanly reassessing best practices so that our sellers experience a timely and smooth experience.

For 2023, we are operating as follows:

We buy Tuesday – Saturday, with the exception of the last 7 days of each month. We do not buy on Sundays and Mondays (please no drop-offs on Sunday/Monday and the final 7 days of the month; this will be our regular catch-up time). We are experiencing a very high volume of sellers; thank you for your patience. Drop-offs will be taking us 1-2 weeks to get to.

We’re hiring!

Looking to work in a fast-paced, fun environment and help parents find all the best solutions to meet their needs? We are seeking staff to train as sales associates and potentially buyers (aka you get to look through *all the things* and help decide what inventory to bring in!). We are open to someone who can do weekends only, or even just work during your child’s school schedule. Please stop by for an application!

Have you seen the new store yet?

We’ve been open in our new location for almost two months now, and we have to say… we’re LOVING it! Every day this space feels a little more like home.

If you haven’t stopped by to visit us at 609 W Clinton St. yet, we hope you’ll come by soon! For a little added incentive, we’re having sales every week this month! It’s the perfect chance to get some great deals during your holiday shopping. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay up-to-date on our December sales.

If you’re not comfortable shopping in person right now (we get it!), we’re happy to offer remote shopping for you! To get started, just send us a DM on social media or text us at (607) 216-7851 and let us know what you’re looking for.

And (drumroll please…) we’re buying again! CLICK HERE to learn about our buying process and to see what items we’re looking for now.

Thank you for continuing to support Mama Goose during a year full of lots of change and challenges. We’ve been feeling the love and are deeply grateful for the Mama Goose community 🧡

Share the Warmth!

We are proud to partner with Ithaca Rotary’s Share the Warmth clothing drive again this year by serving as a drop-off location!

All winter clothing in good repair is accepted. There is a special need for children’s and larger-sized outerwear (2X and up) and large-sized boots (13 and up), as well as coats, snow pants and boots; blankets; and hats, scarves, and mittens for all. Each article of clothing donated should be new or gently
used, and clean for future recipients.

The donated clothing is then distributed by Catholic Charities of Tompkins/Tioga free of charge to individuals who need such items for the winter months. Distribution will take place November 9 – 20. Last year, the program distributed more than 3,067 items to 753 adults and
514 children across Tompkins County.

You’ll find the familiar “red box” collection bin at our store until November 23!
