More Information!
● 50% item sales and 100% of the baked goods go to students accounts!
● The sale will be set up “Department Store Style”
● Students who need volunteer hours, this is your event!
● If you are selling items in a set (dishes, pans, etc..) please put them together and indicate the number in the set and total price. People often only want part of a set and try to haggle, so it can be better to sell them separately.
● Items that lose their price label will be sold at the cashier’s price discretion and will go to general fund
● Standard book prices : Paperback = .50 and standard size hardcover = 1.00. You only need student band IDnumber on the label. Specialty books (coffee table book, children’s books with audio) can be priced higher. The sign at the table will indicate the .50/$1 price but have a note below “Unless otherwise marked”.
● For the last hour of the sale we will hold a fill a bag sale for $5 . All these sales will go to the band general fund. Large items will be sold at half price during the last hour and sales will continue to be split between the band and student accounts
● Volunteers will be walking around, but we can’t guarantee there will not be theft. Please do not bring small items with high value
● Items that do not sell will be donated to the Kalamazoo Gospel Ministries as soon as the sale is over
● Not sure how much to charge? Not a clear answer to that, but there’s lots of suggestions on the internet, or ask a friend that’s a garage sale guru!
