DROP OFF: Drop off is the Tuesday prior to the sale. Bring your tally sheet and tagged items. You will be asked to put the items on racks. It will speed the process if you pre-sort them by gender and size.
VOLUNTEER SALE: Join us to shop on Thursday evening from 5-7 pm to get the best selection! Volunteer to work one 3-hour ship to qualify. (No non-volunteers allowed to shop at the pre-sale.)
Free childcare for children age 10 and younger is provided during your volunteer shift. When you select your shift, add a second childcare shift so we can prepare for your kids.
If you want to volunteer but not sell, sign up as a seller and pick you volunteer time. Selling is not required to volunteer. To sign up to volunteer – www.mysalemanager.net/wrk_start.aspx?partnercode=SPSP.
PICK UP: Items that are marked for donation will be picked up on Saturday afternoon. You must pick up your unsold items by 2:00 or they will be donated to charity. Your donation report will be available online.
TAGGING ITEMS: You must use our software to produce tags and your tally sheet. All tags must be attached to clothing items with a safety pin (no staples or straight pins). Hangers need to have the hook open on the left side to make it easy for shoppers. Pants and shorts should be attached to the top of the hanger to make it easier for people to see them.
Make sure you mark your items as “yes” for discount. All items are 30% off on Saturday. And, be sure to mark each item as “to be donated” or returned.
Be as detailed as possible in your item description (For example – Yellow Carter’s Sleeper with Bunnies). We can sometimes find an item without a tag by using our software. Label things as “2-pieces” when appropriate.
Attach shoes together in clear bags or with ties to keep them from being separated.
Toys, puzzles and games must be in working order and with all pieces. Exceptions must be noted on the tag. Toys with small pieces must be stapled or taped inside a clear bag. We recommend putting batteries in toys to help them sell.
MARKETING: Please help send buyers to the sale! We have flyers that can be distributed at day care facilities and other locations. Include our sale in your FaceBook post and invite your friends to join you.
The first SPSP Sale was held March 2000. The sale provides an avenue for families from the church and surrounding community to sell and purchase clothing and equipment for their children. (Recycling at its best!) As the economy tightened, the number of families who relied on these sales to clothe their children affordably increased drastically.
We accept season-appropriate children’s clothing (newborn to size 16), toys, baby equipment, bedding, shoes and accessories including cribs with a born after date of June 28th, 2011.
