It only happens twice a year...the Just Between Friends consignment sale!!
Let me tell you, out here in Southern California, consignment sales are NOT a big thing, this is the only one around here that I've even heard of, and it is tiny in comparison to other parts of the country.
My friend Lisha, that just moved back to Atlanta and had a baby girl said that she's been to TWO in the past two weekends and is thinking about going to another THIS weekend! Crazy! But I've heard that about Atlanta.
So, I must take what I can get! Here are my goodies:
I must say, I probably spent more than I needed to. Our good friend Sue is always sending us hand me downs and Chase truly has a full closet that way. But there is that little maternal thing inside me that wants to buy clothes every once in a while!
Chase gets so excited when she sees anything Hello Kitty, so I bought her a t-shirt. How this 2 year old that isn't exposed to much in this world knows about HK is beyond me!
There were tons of Gymboree sets and single pieces. I never buy anything new from that store, so those are always a fun find.
The most exciting non-clothing find was The Little Mermaid DVD for $4.00. Chase is loving Dora books these days. We have one from the library that I'm certain she won't want to relinquish.
Can you guess what the grand total was??????????
I think that is pretty fair, not great, but fair! It was a fun night though. I took my friend Steph with me and that was her first time at anything like that, so she stocked up on clothes for her twins. We had some good laughs, ran into some friends, and then had some frozen yogurt at Golden Spoon afterward.
I'm also consigning a bunch of clothes, so I hope that I break even!! It's a lot of work to get ready for, but it's always nice to make a little bit of spending money!
Until the Fall, we must say goodbye to our Friends!
I especially love the little white sun-shirt with the doggies? at the top and the white shoes! Cute!Cute!cute! I bought Whit a black velvet pair of nordstrom dress shoes today at Value Village. She LOVED them even though they were two sizes too big. I knew they would be....but hey, she can wear them now for dress-up and later for real life. ha.ha. Looking forward to thrifting with you soon!
