Two local moms are helping families turn cleaning clutter into cash at their big spring consignment event. Just Between Friends of Milwaukee County is set for April 23-29 at the Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis.
MAKE MONEY: JBF offers a safe & convenient way to turn that spring cleaning clutter into cash. Local families sign up online as consignors, price and tag their own items with an easy bar code system and then bring them to the venue. JBF does the rest of the work managing the sales. Consignors earn between 60 and 70 percent of their sales and receive a check within two weeks. The average consignor check is about $380.
SAVE MONEY: JBF offers a great way to save money on items for spring and summer, including Easter outfits, swimming suits, summer gear and toys. Shoppers can typically save 50 – 90% on everything they need for their families: clothing, shoes, toys, games, books, kids gear, baby equipment, furniture and much more.
SAFETY: In addition to providing information about recalls and checking items at the event, JBF of Milwaukee County is also partnering with Shane’s Foundation to provide FREE furniture tip-over prevention kits to families who purchase furniture at our sale. In addition, JBF will provide shoppers with educational information about the danger of tipping furniture. Tracy Panase can do an interview any time about this partnership. We can also connect you with the founder of the Foundation.
SHANE’S FOUNDATION: In 2011, Lisa Siefert put her 2 year-old son Shane down for a nap. When she went to wake him she found him under a dresser. Lisa never wanted another parent to go through this unimaginable loss so she founded Shane's Foundation to educate and help prevent furniture tip-over accidents.
