About JBF

San Mateo

Here in the Bay Area, I help families navigate the constant cycle of kids outgrowing clothes, toys, and gear—without overspending or letting perfectly good items go to waste. I’m Marci Ludwig (mom of two), and I’m so incredibly proud to bring Just Between Friends to our community.

When I discovered a better way to handle the inevitable mountain of outgrown items in my own home, it completely changed how I approached buying for my family. I realized very quickly that you don’t have to pay premium retail prices to give your kids the very best.

Now, I get to help local families turn what they no longer need into extra cash, while finding everything they need for the next season at a fraction of the cost—all in one organized, community-driven event. For me, it’s about more than just a sale; it’s about creating space at home, putting money back into parents’ pockets, and helping families feel confident saying “yes” to the things their kids need and want.

Make an Impact

Beyond Your Earnings

When you consign with JBF, you’re not just earning money for your family. You’re also helping other families in San Mateo.

Sellers always have the option to donate unsold items, turning gently used clothes, toys, and gear into meaningful support for families who need it most. Together, local sellers help keep quality items in the community and put them to good use.

I have sold with JBF for 3 years now. It’s been a great way to get some extra cash from outgrown clothes and toys. I utilize the valet service which makes consigning large amounts of items easy and stress-free. Each sale, I make money I can use to get my kiddos next few sizes, it’s a sustainable little system and supports the local community.
