A self proclaimed “yard sale junkie,” Antoinette Alpart, co-owner of Replay Toys in Warminster Square Shopping Center will confirm that dreams do come true when you believe they can happen. After years of yard sale hopping, Alpart decided to give families what she knew they wanted.
"Moms know what moms want," said Alpart.
Celebrating the store's third year, Alpart said the inspiration behind it was simple, “to provide safe, clean, working toys at great prices for families.”

Replay is mainly a consignment store but also accepts donations. Donated items directly support various organizations or families in need.
Giving back to the community is a big part of Alpart and her co-owner, Emily Roach's, business ethic.

In the works at Replay Toys is the launching of a new program called “Replay Sports" to benefit local youth sports organizations.
Other charities Replay has helped include Goodwill, Special Olympics, The Hunger Nutrition Coalition of Bucks County and the Sunshine Foundation. Each month Replay donates to a different charity.
From the outside, what appears to be a small business is actually 5,000 square feet of wall-to-wall items from collectibles to X-Box games.
Donna, a friend of the family, said the store is like a “party in a box,” and didn't hesitate to add there were hidden treasures everywhere.
On a walk down the aisles you'll find tire swings, tunnels, outdoor toys, ball pits, American Girl 18-inch dolls, games, Thomas the Train, Lego, Lincoln Logs and even a child-size recliner.
Alpart even offers a 'wish-list' for customers who want something they don't see in the store.
They also have accounts for kids so they can trade in their old toys for new ones.
Plans for other Replay locations are in the works but exact information is not available yet.
