Don’t forget! You can get in early on Thursday night at 6pm when you bring a can of Formula with you to donate!
It’s time for the Just Between Friends Sale here in Utah! This is one of the best consignment sales that you can go to. Each year I have been able to pick up some great gently used and new toys, baby furniture, maternity items, and clothing for super cheap!
But the best part is that Freebies2Deals Readers actually get to get in at 6pm the NIGHT BEFORE the sale opens to the general public! Just bring in a new can of infant formula for The Four of Hearts Foundation. More details on www.jbfsale.com
Here are the regular sale times: (yours is 6pm the night before)
Davis County Legacy Events Center – 151 S. 1100 W. in Farmington
Open to the public on Friday 4/22 10:00-5:00 and Saturday 4/23 9:30-1:30

How much does it cost to get in? (besides the can of formula)
Melea Johnson
Its free! If you dont want to donate formula, you can go during regular times and get in free as well.

Has anyone ever been to this? (besides Melea) It is a franchise and the people that bring the items set the prices so you can’t negotiate or bundle. I’m wondering about prices and more importantly the quality of things it UT. I can’t find ANYONE that has gone to these.

I have gone to all 4 sales (spring and fall in each location) as a consignor and a buyer and you cannot find a better place to buy things second hand. Prices are lower than Kid to Kid and the quality is better. They are pickier than most consignment places when it comes to wear and tear. As far as prices go, it can vary because the consignor prices it. As a rule of thumb when I consign, I will put 2 or sometimes 3 articles together and price it at $3-$4 and I have all my stuff go half price on Saturday. Are there specific things you are looking for? If so, if you tell me what it is I can give you a ballpark number that I’ve seen things go for generally. For nicer things like Easter dresses, I have paid $7-$10 for the larger sizes (10-14) and I pay $3-$5 for my baby’s things. I hope that helps! I hope lots of you ladies come because it is a really great way to stretch a buck! I spent $170 between both sales in the fall and bought my 1 and 2.5 year old’s entire winter wardrobe, 3 pairs of jeans and 6 shirts for my stepdaughter and almost all of their Christmas presents. In addition to kids stuff they also have maternity clothes.

What sizes do they sell? Is it mostly baby clothing? I’m just wondering because I have kids that wear from size 5 in childrens up to adult.
Melea Johnson
In the past, they have had all sizes of kids.

I have a different opinion of this sale. I went to the one in Spanish fork in the fall last year. Not impressed. I thought the toy prices were high and the clothes were either very out of date or overpriced. I’m sure its hit and miss. Good luck to all who choose to go.

Melea- I’m going to be a consignor but I have two friends that want to get in to the presale. Do they just mention that they follow your blog?
Melea Johnson
Yeah and bring in the donated item that I mentioned in the post. 🙂
Ashley
So if you bring a can of formula you can go tomorrow (Thursday 21st) at 6pm?
Melea Johnson
Yep!
AMANDA
So if we can get it at 6pm….how late is it open if we don’t get there right at 6. Trying to decide if I can squeeze it in tonight haha!
Claire
I have gone before and just got a couple things. And I went on the last day so I know it was picked over…but it was all half off by that time too. I’m debating about going again. But if I do I’ll only go on the half price day because I remember thinking that I couldn’t believe the things I bought were double the day before, I never would’ve paid that. I have a friend who’s a consignor this time and offered me to buy her clothes before she dropped them off and I didn’t get around to it and I’m kicking myself now. It was all Gymboree and Gap stuff! Good luck to those who go!
Melissa
I like to go to the sale the day it opens I buy anything I think is reasonable or that I have to have then I like to go back on Sat for the half price sale and buy anything that maybe I though was a little over priced before if it is still available.

I wish I would read things more thoroughly. I kept reading the red “Friday” statement and was thinking that was the early night. I was just about to head out the door and decided to read it through. Guess I missed the early in AND the all-dayer today. Tomorrow is a no-go. Bummer! Always wanted to check one of these out. How was it?
Stacy
So…the one in Orem is this week, right? Are we still able to go on Thursday at 6pm for this one?
