Megan And Katie Celebrate 3 Years Of Owning Mint

Mint Condition is three going on 13, and we couldn’t be more excited!

Toni Henderson, now Banks, opened the doors to this powerhouse store on June 11, 2009, and the mama-to-be remembers it like it was yesterday! Coming from a consignment family, Toni took Old Town by storm! Originally on South Royal Street next to 529 Kids Consign, and now on St. Asaph Street, Mint Condition services over 3,000 consignors and has helped thousands of women - and now men! - find beautiful, designer pieces for their wardrobe at a fraction of retail.

Thinking back to when Toni approached me to purchase Mint Condition and my obvious decision to involve my fabulous sister-in-law Katie, I couldn’t have dreamt up a better scenario if I had tried! This store is a dream for Katie and me! I had ten years under my belt at the time with 529 Kids Consign, and we both had a retail background - it was just the perfect fit!

Fast forward three years, some minor aesthetic changes, and a pandemic, and Mint Condition, Toni’s first baby, is stronger than ever!

Owning a business is not for the faint of heart. Add in five kids, and it’s basically NUTS! But we couldn’t love what we do anymore. And to do it with your sister-in-law in such a supportive town is the icing on the cake!

Katie and I are ready for the weather to change and for fall fashion y’all! We encourage you all to get out of the post-pandemic rut… clean out your closets, refresh your wardrobes, and come see us!

We will be celebrating Mint 3 Going On 13 this Saturday, September 9, from 11am-2pm with Mocktails, Mimosas, and Dresses!

Come shop and sip with us and Umbrella Dry Drinks on Saturday and save 15 percent off all dresses! Follow us on Instagram to find out more deets! Until then, happy consigning, happy shopping, and happy fall!
