2nd Time Around
Resale Shoppe

It all started with auction "extras"

Owners, Mike & Patty Patterson, created 2nd Time Around through a real passion for auctions and estate sales. After spending the day together at one, we always come home with a truck full of treasures. Then we spend the evening sorting it all out, putting aside what we plan to keep for our own collections or home use. We started donating the rest of it to the Goodwill or Salvation Army but then quickly realized that all of it had value to someone.

We rented a small 8X10’ booth in an antique mall, in Janesville, WI, which grew into a 300 sq. foot space. After almost eight years there, we decided to take the big step of opening our own store front, in the quaint little town of Milton, WI.

Mike, with a 45-year background in merchandising and marketing, takes great pride in properly displaying the merchandise in a clean bright and cheerful environment and helping the 25 vendors that have joined us price and market their goods as well.

We have a great mix of merchandise, some old, some new, collectibles, vintage, furniture, home décor, crafts, gifts, and more. “We really do try to have something for everyone!”
