$25 + Pre-Sale Pass Giveaway: JBF Consignment Sale

There are a few things that are true for me as a busy mom of 4. #1) My time to shop for the family is VERY limited. #2) My kids keep growing out of their clothes 😌. #3) I'm always on the hunt for the best deals.

Those are some of the reasons I love JBF Consignment sale! A one-stop shop is the easiest for me to find what I need and there are many great deals to be found at JBF. Clothing, shoes, bikes, outdoor equipment, sports equipment, costumes, books, and toys are just some of the items that I have picked up at JBF the past few years. 😊 

JBF Pittsburgh Consignment Sale

March 31 - April 2, 2017

David L. Lawrence Convention Center

These sales are a great place to stock up for upcoming birthdays or even Christmas gifts. You can find many options of a huge variety of toys, books, outdoor play equipment + much more!

You will find a great selection of clothing options to browse! Keep in mind that the spring sale will focus more on the upcoming summer season. 

The shoe tables are always a great place to stop. You never know when you're going to find some great deals on shoes in "like-new" condition. 

Books, books & more books! ✔

The bikes go fast, but if you get there early, you might find a good one! 

Pre-Sale shopping is a great perk! Pre-Sale means you'll have the chance to be one of the first through the doors and have first pick of the sale options. Pre-Sale shopping is the best! (Not to mention you can beat the bigger crowds!!) Keep in mind that kids + strollers are not allowed during the pre-sale.

Free Store + Donation Drive

I was recently able to stop by The Free Store 15104 in Braddock and see the amazing way this is helping so many! The Free Store was created by Gisele Fetterman, wife of Braddock Mayor John Fetterman. Together they are working in an amazing way to bring life & vitality to a part of our city that had lost 90% of its population, homes & businesses. They've been involved in bringing organic gardens to Braddock and have many creative projects and visions for moving their community forward. They are a couple that gets things done in the best way - with love, kindness, & generosity!

The Free Store operates out of a colorful shipping container on a donated piece of land. The shipping container is located at 420 Braddock Ave, Braddock PA 15104.  The shop is currently open from 1-2:30 on Tuesdays/Thursdays and by appointment.  They are also open many Saturday mornings, but the hours may vary based on volunteers available. They operate fully by a wonderful group of faithful volunteers who help with the day-to-day process. Go here to find out how to be a volunteer!

Donations are happily accepted! They are most readily stocked with clothing, shoes, toys, books & some household items. But they are also take bigger donations if there is a need - just call before you would drop a large item off.  They have several businesses that have donated surplus, including Costco & Osh Kosh B'Gosh. Even recently, they accepted hundreds of boxes of new clothes from Gymboree & Crazy 8! Anyone is welcome to "shop" there, they just ask that you take only what you need + pay it forward! The environment of the store is warm, friendly, & happy!

They also have a neighbor shipping container that is the Red Lantern Bike Shop. This venue is operated by Brian Sink and it receives donated broken and unused bikes. The bikes are then refurbished and redistributed back into the community. Please donate bikes to this awesome organization when you have ones that your family no longer needs! I was even able to get bike helmets for my 2 foster children which allows them to love & enjoy family bike rides! 

Red Lantern is typically open on Saturday mornings, but based on volunteer availability, you may sometimes find them open throughout the week.

My friend, Nadine, from The Pittsburgh Mommy Blog, has organized the first EVER "Free Store 15104" Donation Drive!

 June 21st from 2-5pm 

 The Waterfront

The Summer Music and Marketplace Series will be going on featuring great music (3-7pm), the I Made It! Market! (2-7pm), and the Farm to Table Pittsburgh Farmer's Market.

They will gladly accept your gently used clothing (baby, maternity, and adult), accessories, linens, baby gear, toys, kitchen accessories and other small items. Go here to RSVP and see any other details.

I have no doubt that the community of Pittsburgh is going to continue to support this endeavor of people giving back into the community. Be a part of that effort and donate to FREE STORE 15104!

In Review: JBF '14

This week I was able to attend the Just Between Friends Spring Sale. I will tell you, I'm such a big fan of these mega sales. Where else can you find any possible kid-related product, in one place, at 50-70% off retail?! I know there are problems and challenges with coordinating this many thousands of items and hundreds of people involved, but I think each year they continue to work out kinks to streamline and make the process better for everyone.

We have loved the bargains we've gotten there and this year was no exception! I did have a very small budget that I could use, so I made a very strategic list (a must!) I was able to check off each item very happily. :) 

Rain boots are always on my radar because my kids use them constantly to save from ruining their shoes whether it's a muddy backyard or post-rain walk.  I was happy to score 2 fantastic pairs!

Hunters kids boots retail for $75. My bargain: $5. YES. 

Gymboree boots for $6 / dress for $3 / backpack $1

The shoe table is always one of my favorite places to check.

This girl has been carrying around her brother's backpack for months, so when I found a little pink one for $1, I knew a very good home for it. :) She has rarely taken it off in the past few days! Like-new sandals: $4.

Also snagged a few more clothing items and brand-new Dr. Suess books!

But whatever you're in the market for...baby items, toys, bikes, strollers, + much, much more, you are sure to find something good! 

The sale is still going...so go check it out!
