HOLIDAY & TOY SALE:

Notes to help your Volunteer *SHOPPING* experience go smoothly:

1.  We reserve Thursday, December 5th, as a benefit and private shopping night for our Volunteers & Consignors.

Everyone who enters the Volunteer pre-sale on Thursday, December 5th *must* be wearing the appropriately colored wristband pass.

(EXCEPTION: You may bring your husband/boyfriend/significant-other to shop with you – sorry, NO grandmas, friends, etc, because we do not know whose children they are shopping for. We assume your husband/boyfriend/significant-other is shopping for the same kids as you – your own. This helps ensure that we keep this time as a private shopping time for the children of our Volunteers.)

We love to have grandmas, sisters and friends shop too – simply have them sign up for their own Volunteer shift and they can earn a pass as well.

• Volunteers who work one 4-hour shift, may enter the pre-sale at TIME TBA.

• Consignors may enter the pre-sale at TIME TBA.

If you are a VOLUNTEER *AND* A CONSIGNOR, you will receive your wristband passes when you drop off your items for sale.

If you are a VOLUNTEER, BUT NOT A CONSIGNOR, you will receive your wristband passes when you come to shop on Thursday.

2.  We reserve Sunday morning, December 8th TIMES TBA as a benefit and private shopping time for our Volunteers & Consignors ONLY.

Everyone who enters the 50% OFF Volunteer & Consignor pre-sale on Sunday, December 8th between TIMES TBA *must* be wearing the appropriately colored wristband pass.

(EXCEPTION: You may bring your husband/boyfriend/significant-other to shop with you – sorry, NO grandmas, friends, etc, because we do not know whose children they are shopping for. We assume your husband/boyfriend/significant-other is shopping for the same kids as you – your own. This helps ensure that we keep this time as a private shopping time for the children of our Consignors & Volunteers.)

We love to have grandmas, sisters and friends shop too – simply have them sign up for their own volunteer shift and they can earn a pass as well.

3.  Allow enough time to shop through all the treasures.

The sale has grown QUITE LARGE – it will take awhile to look through everything and get through the checkout area.

When you shop Friday night, you will be shopping at the start of the sale when the building is FULLY LOADED, so there will be A LOT of goodies to look through!!

Please consider leaving the kids at home. If you must bring a stroller, please use the small umbrella-type. Large strollers can block aisles for other shoppers.

4.  Bring something to help you carry your items. A rolling cart or large reusable bag works well. We will have a limited supply of large reusable bags that you can use while shopping as well.

5.  Stick a pen in your purse so that you can write your name, etc on our LARGE ITEM hold tickets.

Larger sized items will have hold tickets on them – there is a spot to write in your name, phone #, date/time. After filling in the info, remove the barcode tag & stub from the bottom of the hold ticket. You will use this stub to pay for the item when you checkout.

After you checkout, go back & get the large item from the sales floor, show your stub marked “PAID” at the exit door and take the item out to your car.

*** YOU MUST WRITE YOUR NAME, PHONE NUMBER AND THE TIME ON THE HOLD TAG TO “HOLD” AND TO PAY FOR THE ITEM. NO NAME = NO HOLD, so bring a pen!

THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HELP AS A VOLUNTEER !

The sale at this size would not be able to continue without your help, we REALLY REALLY appreciate it!
