Just Between Friends Brooklyn Park Holiday Kids’ Sale Nov 19 – 22 (Free Opening Day Ticket)

By

Just Between Friends Winter/Holiday Sale in Brooklyn Park!

In November, as it’s gets colder and darker outside, I usually go through my kids’ stuff to get rid of old and figure out what new clothes and items they may need and want for Christmas.
Of course, kids grow so fast and their stuff can be expensive, which is why I rarely buy things new. Instead, I’ve bought things gently used for years, especially at Just Between Friends kids consignment sales!
 
And just in time for winter and holiday shopping, there’s a big, safe, not-to-be-missed Just Between Friends Winter Kids Sale coming up November 19 – 22, 2020 in Brooklyn Park! And they have new safety protocols to keep everyone safe and healthy.

Why I Love Just Between Friends Sales!

My kids and I have gone to these sales for YEARS. There are tons of used kids items (and some new items!) and the prices are way more affordable than if you were buying new. The selection is always huge and the quality is high, as there are standards for everything that is on sale. There are so many reasons to visit a sale!

Here are 5 reasons to shop at this sale:

  • It’s all kids stuff! If you need something for your kids, you’ll find it here and much more.
  • The quality is better than you’ll find elsewhere, like thrift shops.
  • The variety! There are so many of each item to choose from, from strollers to winter jackets.
  • The prices are reasonable and so much lower than you’ll find for brand new items. 
  • Between masks and reserved shopping times, everything is as safe as possible for you and everyone else!

The one drawback to all the good you’ll find of course is that it’s easy to go overboard and want to buy it all! Especially if you have your kids with you as they’ll want a lot of the toys (just a note from a mama with experience!)!

Just Between Friends Spring Sale in Coon Rapids!

We’ve had a few days of warmer winter weather recently, which has made me feel the urge to not only get outside more but to start my spring cleaning! If you feel the same, then I’ll say it’s a great time to start the process. With some BIG kids’ sales coming up this spring, it’s never too soon to go through your kids stuff and see what can be sold and what needs to be replaced as the kids grow!

Of course, kids grow so fast and their stuff can be expensive, which is why I rarely buy things new. Instead, I’ve bought things used for years, especially at Just Between Friends kids consignment sales!

There’s a big, not-to-be-missed Just Between Friends Spring Kids Sale coming up March 5-8, 2020 in Coon Rapids. This sale is put on by two great moms, Kris and Katy, who have many years of experience and expertise selling only the best kids stuff for less.

You can get gently used children’s clothes, toys, baby equipment, sports gear and so much more, for as little as a fraction of the price you’d get them new. It’s a frugal mom’s shopping dream come true!

I discovered Just Between Friends a few years ago, when my kids were toddlers (here’s my review of one of my sale visits a few years ago). I wish I had known about them when I was pregnant, because I would have saved a ton of money on baby stuff! To help other moms out there though, and moms-to-be, I’m spreading the word about these don’t-miss sale events, including one coming up in the Maple Grove/Brooklyn Park area next week!

First, here are the details of next week’s sale:
