Local mother opens second Once Upon A Child resale store in Milwaukee suburbs
A new children's clothing and accessories resale store focused on giving back to parents is opening in Greendale.
Once Upon A Child, located at 5431 S. 76th St., will open May 15. The resale store franchise — part of Winmark, the Resale Company — buys and sells gently used children's items, including clothing, toys, equipment and accessories.
The Greendale location marks the second store opened by local resident and mother Jess McGurn, who launched her first location in Brookfield in 2022. A mother of four and former foster parent, McGurn said she saw the need for another location in the Milwaukee metro area to support more families.
'Over the last four years, we've doubled the size of Once Upon A Child in Brookfield to keep up with demand,' McGurn said in a press release. 'I knew it was time to open another location to make the business more accessible to even more families. I'm so excited to bring this store to Greendale and can't wait to connect with more local families and organizations.'
McGurn said she has relied heavily on Once Upon A Child for her own children. Her Brookfield location has partnered with foster care programs and other organizations to support families in need across the region.
To celebrate the grand opening, the Greendale store will host several events May 15-18:
May 15-18: All guests will be entered into a drawing to win a $250 gift card. The winner will be announced May 18. Shoppers who spend $75 will receive a free tote bag while supplies last.
May 15-17: The first 25 customers each day will receive a $25 gift card.
Thursday: Raffle for a Little Sleepies blanket and sleeper.
Friday: Raffle for a Yeti cooler.
Saturday: Two Bogg bags will be raffled. Customers who donate a pack of diapers for the Milwaukee Diaper Mission will receive an extra raffle ticket.
May 18: Shoppers can earn double loyalty points for every $10 bought or sold. A Crave Tumbler will be raffled off, and Bluey will host a meet-and-greet at 2 p.m.
Once Upon A Child ensures that all products meet mandatory and voluntary safety standards. Staff members monitor product recalls and inspect items before resale to ensure safety and compliance.
For more information on the buying process or stores, call the store at 262-232-8459 or visit Once Upon A Child's official website.

1 Cash-Producing Stock to Consider Right Now and 2 to Question
While strong cash flow is a key indicator of stability, it doesn't always translate to superior returns. Some cash-heavy businesses struggle with inefficient spending, slowing demand, or weak competitive positioning. Not all companies are created equal, and StockStory is here to surface the ones with real upside. Keeping that in mind, here is one cash-producing company that reinvests wisely to drive long-term success and two best left off your watchlist. Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 19% Originally a subsidiary of Pioneer-Standard Electronics that distributed electronic components, Agilysys (NASDAQ:AGYS) offers a software-as-service platform that helps hotels, resorts, restaurants, and other hospitality businesses manage their operations and workflows. Why Does AGYS Worry Us? Revenue increased by 19.2% annually over the last three years, acceptable on an absolute basis but tepid for a software company enjoying secular tailwinds Gross margin of 62.4% reflects its relatively high servicing costs Free cash flow margin is forecasted to shrink by 1.1 percentage points in the coming year, suggesting the company will consume more capital to keep up with its competitors Agilysys's stock price of $105.60 implies a valuation ratio of 10x forward price-to-sales. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including AGYS in your portfolio, it's free. Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 13.3% Founded by two brothers from Texas, YETI (NYSE:YETI) specializes in durable outdoor goods including coolers, drinkware, and other gear tailored to adventure enthusiasts. Why Is YETI Not Exciting? Sales trends were unexciting over the last two years as its 7.1% annual growth was below the typical consumer discretionary company Estimated sales growth of 3.4% for the next 12 months implies demand will slow from its two-year trend Shrinking returns on capital suggest that increasing competition is eating into the company's profitability At $32.05 per share, YETI trades at 11.8x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with YETI, check out our full research report (it's free). Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 5.1% Known for projects like the construction of Guantanamo Bay, KBR provides professional services and technologies, specializing in engineering, construction, and government services sectors. Why Are We Fans of KBR? Offerings and unique value proposition resonate with customers, as seen in its above-market 10.3% annual sales growth over the last two years Operating margin expanded by 4.9 percentage points over the last five years as it scaled and became more efficient Share buybacks catapulted its annual earnings per share growth to 15.8%, which outperformed its revenue gains over the last five years KBR is trading at $52 per share, or 13.5x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it's free. The market surged in 2024 and reached record highs after Donald Trump's presidential victory in November, but questions about new economic policies are adding much uncertainty for 2025.

From coolers and water bottles to backpacks, Yeti has won over our outdoor experts with its lineup of products that stand the test of time. That's why I'm welcoming the brand's latest debut with open arms to take on hiking excursions. The Cayo All-Weather Backpack boasts a durable, water-resistant material that can handle rough terrain. If you loved Yeti's signature cooler tote, the Camino, consider this backpack its cousin. Today, Yeti debuted the Cayo backpack in a 15- and an 18-liter capacity option with plans to launch a 35-liter bag later this year. Anyone from commuters to fishing enthusiasts to hikers will appreciate the newest. Here's all you need to know about Yeti's latest backpack launch as well as a fun new assortment of lunch boxes. Yeti Cayo 15L All-Weather Backpack The Cayo backpack features a bevy of organizational features, including quick-access pockets and internal storage pockets. For lugging on all-day adventures, its mesh pack panel should help comfortably tote hefty loads. It launched today, May 30, and it's already sold out in the black color. Yeti Cayo 25L All-Weather Backpack For $50 more in price, splurge on a bit more space with this 25-liter backpack. Choose from black and olive green colors that blend with the outdoors. You can also expand your pack by adding functional accessories, like an attachable gear case. Keep it secure on steeper treks with its removable chest and waist straps. If you're split between the Cayo 15L and the Cayo 25L, the former is more compact and ideal for commutes, while the latter can pack more for daytrips or as a carry-on item. Both are made with the same water-resistant outer shell and welded seams to help withstand light rain and keep your belongings safe. If the Cayo is anything like Yeti's previous launch, the Ranchero Backpack, it's sure to impress. CNN Underscored's outdoors, sustainable living and pet editor Kai Burkhardt took the Ranchero 27L out climbing and around town and appreciated its durable, versatile design — all hallmarks I expect from the brand. Considering that the Cayo 15L Backpack has already sold out in one color, this launch is on the way to becoming a bestseller, especially for those who will spend much time trekking outdoors this summer.
