|
Filling out a Tag
|
|
|
|
Use the "unlined" side of an
index card
|
|
|
|
1. Draw a line approx
3/4" down from the top - this is where you will pin the tag onto
your item
|
|
All writing will go
BELOW this line
|
|
|
|
2. TOP RIGHT CORNER -
write the item's size
|
|
|
|
For items with a size range - round up -
|
|
(ex: for 3-6 months use 6 months, 6-12 months use 12
months, 7-8 use 8)
|
|
|
|
For items sizes Small, Medium, Large, etc, use your
best numeric estimate.
|
|
|
|
3. BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER - write the
item's price
|
|
|
|
Price in whole-dollar increments only (for example,
$2.00, $3.00, $4.00 $5.00)
|
|
|
|
All CLOTHING items must have a
minimum price of $2.00
|
|
(you may hang or bundle more
than one item together to get to the $2.00 minimum if necessary)
|
|
|
|
All OTHER ITEMS must have a minimum price
of $1.00
|
|
|
|
4. BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER -
|
|
If you want the item to
sell for 50% off during Sunday's 50% off sale,
|
|
place a "RED STAR"
above the price - large enough so that it is clearly visible.
|
|
*** PLEASE consider
including your items in the 50% off sale - if you choose not to, your
items WILL still
|
|
be available for purchase at full
price on Sunday, but shoppers will generally "shop around"
full-priced items at the 50% off sale.
|
|
|
|
5. BOTTOM LEFT CORNER - write your
assigned consignor #
|
|
(This number will be used to
track your sale so be sure to write it legibly)
|
|
|
|
6. TOP LEFT CORNER - write a
"D" for "donate" if you choose to donate this item if
it is left unsold.
|
|
(All
unsold items will be available for pick-up Sunday, Sept. 28,
2008 between 4pm and 5pm.)
|
|
OR we will have
representatives from local charities that will picking up unsold items
designated as donations)
|
|
**** NOTE: All items MUST be
picked up during the designated time on Sunday as we are required to be out of the
building -
|
|
ALL items not picked
up within the times designated become the property of The Stork Lady Kids
Sale. ****
|
|
|
|
7. CENTER - write item
description
|
|
Include things like color, brand
& how many pieces are in the outfit (be clear so that if your tag gets
separated from the item, we can figure out which item it goes with!)
|
|
If the item is
"new" or "barely used' include that info as well
|
|
Mention any
special features that the buyer would want to know
|
|

ATTACHING TAGS TO CLOTHING
|
|
|
|
Attach tags to clothing using a SAFETY PIN or TAGGING
GUN
|
|
|
|
(For reasonably priced tagging guns:
Check eBay OR Store Supply Warehouse
(located at Page & 170 or shop online) OR
check Office Depot & OfficeMax)
|
|
|
|
*** We recommend the short 1" - 2" plastic
barbs to load the tag gun. ***
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Attach tag to either the garment's label in the
neckline OR
|
|
to a RIGHT-hand seam
(at the shoulder,
neckline, underarm,etc - on the RIGHT side of the garment).
|
|
|
|
**** PLEASE, please do NOT pin or attach directly
into the clothing fabric as it often
|
|
LEAVES A HOLE - this is extremely frustrating
to the buyer when they discover it at home!
|
|
|
|
ATTACH TAGS TO CLOTHING LABEL OR RIGHT HAND SIDE OF CLOTHING ONLY:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ATTACHING TAGS TO OTHER ITEMS (toys,
baby gear, etc).
|
|
|
|
Attach tags to items using CLEAR PACKING
TAPE
|
|
|
|
Place a single piece of clear, packing tape
all the way across the top 3/4 of the tag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In some cases, it is easier to attach tags w/
a hole-punch and string or ribbon.
|
|
|
|
OR use quick, easy and inexpensive plastic ZIP TIES
|
|
(available at Home Depot or Lowes)
|
