During the sale
Please sign up to help either with setup or take down as well as some time during the sale itself. Call Karen to sign up.
Tagging
Attach your tags with safety pins. (No staples or stick pins). Please be aware
of how much tape you use, it’s very hard for cashiers to remove tape! See
the tag template for more information.
Pricing
Prices must be rounded to the dollar or .50˘. i.e.$2.00 or $2.50. Do not use $2.25,$2.99 etc. Please do not mark tags "$25 each or 2 for $40." Please mark each item separately. If an item is free please mark it "FREE." Do not mark an item "Top $2.00, pants FREE", this causes confusion at the cash tables.
All pricing and/or tagging must be done before your items are brought to the sale.
Clothing standards
Please make sure your items are clean and in good shape. If there’s an imperfection, and it is still sale worthy, describe the imperfection. Items will be removed if they are dirty or in poor shape. Please go through your items carefully – would you buy the item you’re trying to sell? If not, please don’t try to sell it at the sale. Items found to be unacceptable are removed from the sale.
