Just Between Friends Fort Worth Giveaway! #JBFFORTWORTH

Just Between Friends Fort Worth Giveaway!

Have you ever been to the Just Between Friends Fort Worth sale?  I have never been and I am very excited to be able to shop this year!

Just Between Friends Fort Worth is Texas’ LARGEST children’s and maternity consignment sale!  The sale takes place at Fort Worth’s Will Rogers Memorial Center – Amon G. Carter Exhibit Hall.

The sale will be open to the public Thursday, September 3rd 2015 – Saturday, September 13th 2015.  You can find the full schedule here <—

First time parents & grandparent can sign-up to shop early!  Just be sure to sign up for early admission no later than September 3.  You can also sign up to volunteer and/or consigning will get you an early pre-sale pass!  Click here for more information <—

Since I have not attended before and maybe some of you might not have attended either, I thought I would share some Consignment Sale Shopping Tips:

1.  I already mentioned this one above, but to get there first and check out the best stuff you want to volunteer!  That allows you to get in early and scope out the deals!

2.  Hire a sitter!  You’ll want plenty of time to peruse without potty breaks and melt downs.  Well, you might need a potty break or two and hopefully you won’t have any melt downs 🙂

3.  Take a wagon or some sort of small cart that maneuvers easily but, can hold your all your great finds!

4.  Be prepared to take your time, these sales are huge and you want to be able to check out all of the things you’re after and get the best deal for you!

5.  Have a plan, talk to someone who has been before and ask their advice.  Know what you’re looking fo and how much you want to spend on each purchase.  Then work your plan, don’t get sidetracked.

6.  Know the sizes of the kids you’re purchasing for before you go.  Plan to purchase items that will last, so be prepared to look for the next size up.

7.  Make sure to inspect clothes closely.  Search for tears or snags, stains or loose seams.  

8.  Know ahead of time what payment forms will be accepted.  You don’t want to be searching for an ATM.

9.  Bring snacks and water to stay hydrated.  The lines will be long and you don’t want to have to search for fountains or pay for drinks while you’re busy deal hunting!

10.  Have fun, enjoy the time and know that you are saving your family money while providing what your kids need, too!
