Our NCPC MOPS groups is having a fundraiser with the Just Between Friends Consignment Sale happening in Mill Creek Friday December 7th, and Saturday December 8th. The sale will be held at the Gold Creek Community Church in Mill Creek at 4326 148th street Southeast (just off Seattle Hill road). The website for the sale is http://www.lynnwood.jbfsale.com/.
For those of you not familiar with Just Between Friends (JBF) they are a national organization who host large scale consignment sales across the country multiple times a year. At these events, consignors bring their new and gently-used children's and maternity merchandise to sell. Shoppers can then browse and purchase these items at great savings, usually far below retail prices. Consignors set their price for the items they are selling and then make 60-70% of what they sell. Consignors can choose to get items back that don't sell, or the organization donates the items to local charities. You can look up their national site at www.jbfsales.com .
The upcoming Mill Creek Sale is a bit unique in that it is a Toy and Baby Equipment Sale only. Just in time for the holidays. I have been in contact with the organizer and as we are a non profit organization, she will compensate us 80% of what we sell. We in exchange have to provide 2-4 volunteers to work a combined total of 8 hours at the sale.
What we need from our families are a good supply of gently used (and working) toys and baby equipment that your kids (and more likely you moms) are open to parting with. This is just in time for clearing out space in preparation for the influx of items that may be coming at Christmas. You can bring your donations to Brooke Yule's house any time, just call Brooke at 206-795-1504 or email her at beyule@earthlink.net
We can store the items in my garage and my husband and I will drop off the items at the Sale Set up between December 2nd and December 5th. Any items not sold, we will pick up and donate to Mary's Place, our MOPS outreach organization.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with your families. We all have much to be thankful for.
Blessings!
