Look what I scored at Just Between Friends Consignment Sale Pittsburgh

I had the opportunity to talk to some of the lovely people who are in charge of the Just Between Friends consignment sales and some of the amazing volunteers.  

Looking at the size of the shopping area and how many items there were, I could have only imagined how long it takes to organize, promote, recruit volunteers, take care of consignors, etc.  So I asked them, How long does it take to organize one of their sales?  The organizer for the Pittsburgh East sales told me that almost literally weeks after one sale has ended plans are started for the next.  There’s a lot involved from booking  venue, advertising, and more. 

One thing I like was how they talked about how important mommy bloggers are to getting the word out about their sales and they really appreciate their mommy bloggers :-).  

I’ll be honest, I was in the zone for shopping for deals.  I nearly forgot to take pictures but don’t worry, I came to my senses during my trip.  Had I had a moving van and didn’t have my  newborn with me I probably  would have bought a lot more.  

Ok I’m super psyched about this find.  This was probably one of my fave finds

I don’t know if you can read the tag but I scored a Vera Bradley diaper bag for $6!!!  You bet that went home with me.  

I had a mental list of things I needed and wanted to get.  I needed a new infant stroller.  I didn’t know exactly what I wanted I just knew that I wanted something newer than what I had (mine is 10 years old and has lived through 3 boys!) I didn’t want to spend a lot of money.  Boy was there a selection

Ok this wasn’t even all of them.  I just took a quick pic of what I saw.  Everything from jogging strollers, travel systems, car seat frame strollers, double strollers, just about any kind you might want.  I ended up choosing a car seat frame stroller since I did have a toddle stroller for later.  

Just look at the price!  Only $20 that went home with me too.

I also picked up a couple outfits for my baby girl, some toys for my youngest son, a pair of shorts for my youngest son, a couple toys for my girl, oh and another thing that was on my list was a car seat mirror for the car so I could glance and see my baby in her car seat if I needed to.  Yep got it for $2.50!  Also got a couple of sun hats, some tights that were new in the package, some nursing pads, and a couple pairs of shoes including a brand new pair of Robeez for my daughter.  Oh my seriously I could have spent all day there.  

I stood in the back of the dome and tried to take a pic of just some of the toys.  Trust me this wasn’t even all of them.  They had them sectioned off boys toys, girls toys, games, big play furniture, outdoor toys, Oh that reminds me I also got a baseball glove for my youngest son because he’s been wanting one like his big brother.  

So lets take inventory again

–Graco car seat frame stroller $20

–Munchkin car seat mirror $2.50

–1 girls shirt and pants set $5

–1 girls one piece with matching cardigan $3

–new unopened baby tights $1

–Circo Mary Jane Style pink shoes $1

–sun hat purple/blue/green $1

–Sun hat black and white $1.50

–Robeez shoes $4

–Vera Bradley diaper bag $6

–pink elephant toy for carseat/stroller $1

–Bag of 3 Monster trucks for my son $4

–Boys 5/6 shorts $2

–Yellow and lime Franklin baseball glove $2

Um I think that’s everything.  I didn’t get a pic of the trucks, by son ripped that bag open and played with them immediately.  Then mixed them in with the rest of his toys.  But I’m super happy with the deals I got.  I would definitely recommend going if you’re near a Just Between Friends Consignment sale. The one in Pittsburgh is happening May 3-5.
