Robbie Doyle and Lori Steward are the mother-daughter team behind Sweet
Repeats. Beginning in April 2000, the semi-annual consignment sale opened in the
Cheaha Clubhouse, located in Oxford, AL. Each sale has seen a growth in
consignor numbers and brought many new faces to Sweet Repeats. As a result, the
business has moved several times to accommodate the ever increasing number of
items for sale. From the Cheaha Clubhouse, to the Friendship Community Center,
to the Oxford National Guard Armory, to the former Designer Checks building, the
former Kitchen's Building, back in the Designer Checks Building and now back to
Oxford in the Oxford Custom Door Building on Hwy 78 West. Robbie and Lori are
extremely grateful to God for blessing the business and the community for their
support.
Sweet Repeats continues to operate semi-annually- this means that only two sales
are held each year. The Fall/Winter sale is typically held in October and holds only
clothes for the fall and winter seasons. The Spring/Summer sale is typically held in
March and holds only clothes for spring and summer wear. Other items such as
children's toys and furniture are accepted in both sales.
Our Location
The former Oxford Custom Door 2224 Hwy 78 W Oxford, AL From intersection at Quintard Mall & Martins, go west on Hwy 78 3.3 miles. We're next to Betta View Hills Church of Christ. From Coldwater go east on Hwy 78 2.5 miles. If you're traveling via Interstate 20, you will take Exit #185-Oxford, then take left at Mall.

Important NEW Sweet Repeats' Policies
Stained Clothing
Badly stained clothing of ANY size will be discarded or donated immediately. We do
not have the space or time to store and sort through badly stained or damaged
clothing. All stained baby clothes (birth - 9 months) will be discarded or donated
immediately. Stained baby clothes do not sell. Please check your clothing in various
forms of light (sunlight, florescent, etc.).
Clothing hung backward will not be sold.
Please see pictures on this website to determine the correct way to hang your
garments. Hook should be facing left if you are holding the garment in front of you,
looking at the front of the garment. (hook will look like a question mark '?') If you hang
your clothes backward, you will be called to come pick them up or change them.
.
As Sweet Repeats is growing in size, we see the need to eliminate some items from
the sale in order to focus our attention on children's clothes and related items. We
have had to assess the items that sell the best and are of most interest to our
shoppers. We will not be accepting the following items. We understand this will be a
disappointment to some of you; however, due to space issues and time issues it was
a necessary decision. Thank you for understanding.
No Longer Accepting
Baby Bath Tubs
Diaper Bags
Décor Items – Lamps, pictures, knick knacks, etc.
Comforter Sets/Nursery Bedding Sets
Mobiles (unless like new in original box)
Maternity Clothing
Car Seats**
Stuffed animals of any type (except electronic ones)
Clothes larger than children’s size 16
**These items (with the exception of car seats) do not sell well at all.
Car Seats are not accepted due to safety issues. Knowing the history of a car seat is crucial.
For example, if a car seat has been involved in an motor vehicle accident or if it is over a certain
number of years old or if it has been stored in high temperatures, its safety can be
compromised. It is fine for you to accept and use a second hand car seat from someone you
know very well and can trust their information. However, Sweet Repeats would be unable to
provide all the needed information about seats and for that reason has decided to stop selling
car seats all together. A bargain is a wonderful thing, but not when dealing with the safety of
children.

Riley age 6, Colby age 3, and Garrett age 10. Yes, they help do
some of the work too.

Items that are not picked up by the designated pick up time, are donated immediately to very worthy charities. We will not hold items past the pick up time.
