Good Morning Ladies! Is anyone planning on going to the Just Between Friends sale in Woodbury over the next few days? If you are a first time parent did you sign up for the pre-sale entry tonight?

Re: Just Between Friends Sale? (Woodbury0
I've never been to the Woodbury JBF, but here is my general consignment sale advice.
Bigger items like gear (strollers, high chairs etc), furniture and large toys go quickest. Toys, books and clothes are usually plentiful (especially smaller sizes) and can wait until last. Make a list and prioritize it accordingly.
With such great deals, it's easy to get carried away stocking up on larger sizes, etc, but remember that there will be another JBF in the fall for you to stock up on what you need for the winter months, so just focus on getting what you will need for the summer/fall.
When selecting clothing, don't take time to look it over or compare prices while standing in the aisle. If you like how it looks and it is the right size, then throw it in your bag and move on. Once you've gone through all the racks, then take your loot over to a quiet corner and inspect everything more closely. Look for stains and tears, broken zippers, etc. Most of this should have been caught by inspection, but some things slip through unnoticed. You can compare prices at this time, too. Prices can vary dramatically from consignor to consignor. Be sure to double-check sizes, as sometimes things get put back in the wrong spot or mislabeled. There will likely be discard racks for you to put your unwanted items on (again, I've not been to the Woodbury sale), but if not, then you can just stick them back onto the correct rack on your way to check out!
Last piece of advice. Be prepared for long lines. Showing up 30-60 minutes early will get you a much better spot in line and a better chance to snag some deals on the bigger ticket items, if they're on your list. Check-out lines are insane on pre-sale night, so be prepared to stand in line for up to an hour.
Have FUN!
