Just Between Friends Consignment Sales

[mrsclark731]

...JBF consignment sales--who's been to one? What have you heard?

I'm curious if it is worth it. I would be interested in GUC toys or NWT clothing. 

[misshart00]

Freaking amazing! Try and get the pass to go early.

There is one around me middle of august. I've heard great things so I signed up to do the pre sale thing or whatever they call it. I've heard it's always worth it.

I've never done JBF (I looked it up and there's one here next week, so I may go), but I went to other consignment sales while pregnant. There is seriously so much stuff. I have to say that I overbought at the ones I went to because everything was just so cute and I really had no idea what I'd need. Most of the clothes I got were used, so I'm not sure how much luck you would have finding NWT. But it is fun to go and find deals!

Omg seriously just laughed out loud and my husband looked at me like wtf?

[mrsclark731]

Good info to know!

There are several in my area in September/October. I will make an effort to get to at least one of them with my Mom and maybe sister.

Everyone should share their deals afterwards!

[hollydfromtn]

Boo. I just looked up my area and the closest one is 3hrs away.

mrsclark731,- I heard good and bad about that. I was going to go before but then I decided not to go. I had a FTM pass for the first time. I know you cannot take strollers in there so you either have to leave LO at home or babywear. I also heard some of the prices really aren't that great because JBF takes a huge cut.

With that being said, I am also looking for GUC toys/NWT clothing. Do you wanna fight me for the good deals at the next JBF sale? haha. Just kidding but I do hear there is a lot of that sort of thing going on- pushy women, etc.

I think there is a Once Upon a Child near you. I wonder how that is. Have you been?

[mmarie]

Once upon a child is good too. At least the one by me. It's probably worth at least checking out.

[wanderinga]

I've been and there is definitely A TON of stuff, it's worth going! I believe the majority of the stuff is 50% off on the last day as well and there is always a ton to choose from. Once Upon a Child, at least the one in my area, is not worth it.

[lilyelayne]

Never heard of this. None in my state. Checked texas and had to laugh at the amount listed in Houston.

There's a local version of this every 6 months where I live. Volunteers & consigners get passes for Wednesday, then there are 2 different pass times for Thursday, then open to the general public Friday & Saturday - Saturday everything is discounted. It's pretty awesome. I got DS's pack n play there while I was pregnant. The last one happened the weekend I had DS so obviously we didn't go

[mrsclark731]

All of the Once Upon a Child stores by me aren't very nice. In my experience they are more like Goodwill for baby stuff.

I'm going to try to get a pass and go early. I'll leave DD with H for the day

I wonder which sale by me I should try to go to? The one in the 'nicest' area would be the best bet, right?

Maybe try Glen Mills. Or you can try Oaks, PA. But if you do, then you have to come hang out with me.

[mrsclark731]

mands1125, I was thinking Chadds Ford over Swedesboro

[allonsy221b]

We don't have JBF here but we have a few similar, I've bought and sold at them and I love them! You should definitely check it out
