Just Between Friends (JBF) is a sale that happens twice a year. They sell used kids clothing and maternity. I have been selling stuff there for the last year and a half. I set my own prices and I get 66% of what I sell, JBF takes the other third. I hate the thought of garage sales, so this has been great, not to mention that I sell things for way more than I could get for them at a garage sale ($10-15 for a nice dress) I don't feel as bad splurging on more pricey items for the kids once in awhile because I know I can sell it later! LOL! Plus, as a consigner I get access to the sale before it opens to the public. Last night was the early shopping night for consigners and I did pretty good. 3 swim suits for Sloane- always nice to have extra swim suits! 3 pairs of shoes for her, including Stride Rite ($$$), a whole bunch of clothes ultra cheap, AND I also scored a toybox for Cameron (long overdue) and a baby doll stroller for Sloane. I spent about $150, but I have already made $100 in sales and it isn't even open to the public yet- yeah!!!
I work my butt off getting ready for this sale and our house looks like it exploded with baby clothes and gear, but I do get rid of alot of stuff and make some decent cash from it. As for baby gear- I think it all sold yesterday. I didn't take the high chair out of the attic yet- I will probably sell that on craigslist. Then the only baby stuff we will have left is the crib which converts to a headboard for a double bed, so i don't think I have any 'big' stuff left to get rid of- yeah!!!
