I LOVE Once Upon a Child! I always look forward to my shopping trips to Once Upon a Child because I know I will always get super deals on the top name brand clothes, some even with the tags still on them which have never been worn, and best of all, my children love the clothes I get from Once Upon a Child! Better yet, I know I'll get good deals on good quality clothes without the big expense. Yep, I'm definitely my children, Lane and Cheyenne, and I are proud customers of Once Upon a Child!

I have been going to this store for a few years through 2 boys. My kids have closets overflowing with clothes, rooms full of toys, and outside toys thanks to the cheap prices at OUAC. I especially love the $5 bag sale that lets me stock up on clothes for the boys. Who can beat a full closet for each boy that cost me only $35!!!!!

So I was looking for a Brobee toy for my kids for Christmas. And let me tell you ANY Yo Gabba Gabba items are hard to find and pricey. So I was at OUAC like most days lol and happen to come across this Brobee in good condtion for only $13. Then a month later I was on Amazon and saw this same toy one was being sold for $60 and the other seller had it for $189!! Obvious these are collectibles :) Brobee is the green one on the right

As a young mom I don't have much money to be spending on items that my son will just grow out of anyway so I like to shop at Once Upon a Child for clothes for all seasons and also some other things as well I love they have name brand stuff for so little and in pretty good condition. Today I got some pretty good deals on some spring clothes.

Me and boyfriend, William, are expecting a baby boy in May, 2013. A friend told us about Once upon a Child in Omaha, NE. Right when we walked in William seen a Radio Flyer Rocket priced at $35 and he HAD TO BUY IT. I wasn't to fond of it. Couple weeks later I was wondering how much one of these rockets costs brand new. I went to the radio flyer website and I couldn't even find it.. I went to amazon.com and it goes between $100 and $230 new. That was surprising and made William love it even more! We also found great cheap clothes, I can't wait to go back, I wish we had a store here in Columbus, NE!

I was a single mother with my youngest son for about 2 years, I am now happily engaged, and last year we planned our pregnancy hoping for a girl... I ended up with Identical Twin Boys. Once Upon a Child has been so0o0o great.. they always have deals going on, I love how its all color coded. I am now able to get my boys name brand clothes at a much cheaper price, I don't feel like I have to settle for cheap clothes, all of my boys are dressed in style! Thank You Once Upon a Child for making it possible for my boys to have nice clothes, and mama's bank to not be completely broke! It allows me to provide other things for them!

I have three wonderful little boys (ages 3.5 years, 2 years, 4 months) but they are so hard on their cloths a lot of the hand me downs are well worn and work great for play but not what I want for their “nice” cloths. I love that I can get them all “nice” cloths to wear out in public without breaking the bank or when sizes and season don’t match up I can find very nice in style cloths for all my boys and I usually go way over what I planned to buy since I find so much I Love.

Calling all stay at home mommies! This store has been a dream come true. I can always find a bargain and the clothes are great! As fast as my lil' man is growing, there is no way I would pay department store price. Great quality, brand names I trust and oh the prices!

I am a single mother of two great girls; Layla is 5 and Makaila is 2. I love shopping here I get way more for my money! I have gotten a pack n play for my youngest here as well as a great selection of toys and clothing! I am 32 weeks pregnant with my first son and I have already got not only a perfect condition baby carrier for him but adorable onesies and pants. The onesies were only $1.50! Awesome place for parents on a budget.

I am a young single mom of 4 wonderful kids. They are 12,7,5 & 1. I want the best for them and want all the cute clothes that the name brand stores carry but there is no way I could ever afford it. It's very hard being a single mom but with Once upon a child available I can afford the style of clothes they deserve. It can be hard to please a tween with their picky styles, but my daughter is always happy to go to once upon a child and she loves the good deals because she says she can get more clothes that way haha. I've sold a lot of the toys and clothes that the kids have grown out of and that's really helpful because I get cash to use towards the things they need now. My children and I are SO thankful for the founder of Once upon a child!

I have 4 kids and I lost my job. Just recently had a baby 7 months ago and Once Upon a Child kept me going. I felt really bad that I could not afford the really nice and expensive things for my kids. Once upon a Child allowed me to do that and not break my pockets or my spirits. I thank God everyday for Once Upon a Child.

Wanted to share a guys point of view since most comments come from women. This is coming from a single father who despises having to go to the mall for his two beautiful daughters. I'm so glad my co-worker told me about this place. The girls working noticed I didn't have a clue on how to buy girlie stuff so they helped me put together a few outfits with matching shoes and of course bows to match. Now, my girls can go to church looking girlie and not looking like they were dressed by their clueless father on fashion. Prices were great and so much cheaper than going to the mall. Thank you to the staff at Once Upon A Child Raleigh for all your help and assistance and the time, money and the headache you saved me. All the women at the office talk about how wonderful this store is and now I can join it that conversation and pass along to my guy friends and their wives about this store.
