Just Between Friends Consignment Sale - Don't Miss!!
If you haven't been to a JBF sale, you are missing out! There are several locations in the Houston area with various dates. You can check the website for more details. Each location has 2 sales a year, a fall and a spring. The Pearland fall sale starts tomorrow. It is filled with everything for kids! Toys, clothes, furniture, books, baby gear, maternity, shoes, etc. It is too late for you to consign in this sale, but for the future, you can earn 65% of total sales, or 70% if you volunteer. The biggest benefit to selling or volunteering, is that you get into the exclusive pre-sale before the general public. There is also a half-price sale on Saturday! Check it out starting tomorrow! I went to the Woodlands sale 2 weeks ago and spent about 50 bucks and got about 120.00 worth of clothing!
