Fida Lähetystori

Three stars?! WHAT??? Anyone who three-​stars this place doesn’t have children. Fida on Iso Roobertin is my new go-​to for baby and infant clothes. I hate to even share this information as based on the huge inventory, it would appear that no one knows they have this stuff. Or maybe Finnish people just don’t buy things used. That’s fine! More for me.
It’s a little musty-​smelling and the rest of the selection isn’t great but it’s an awesome place to pick up baby clothes if you don’t mind digging a little. I am a firm believer in recycling and common sense dictates that a baby will outgrow clothing in 3 months or less. This is the best find I’ve found since moving to Helsinki. I won’t be shopping there for myself, but I am very happy to have discovered their treasure trove of nice used things for little people. A quick run through the washer and they’ll be good as new!
PS– I think Fida benefits a religious organization or some other cause, so I feel good giving them the little money it actually costs to leave the store with tons of great things.
