  1. Would you rather have it.... one saturday a month?[ 18 ] [69.23%] one Friday and Saturday every other month?[ 8 ] [30.77%] The next 50c Sale is scheduled for April 18th!!! Thanks
  2. Okay the next 50c sale is April 18th 10-6 Thanks for the vote!
  3. I just want to say thank you to everybody that has come by and donated clothes this week. We are getting stocked back up!!! Yeah! We still would love and need books galore. BTW, Vicky has been having people write comment cards, how many of these were pcommers? Let me know. Thanks!
  4. Hopefully things will pick up soon and we can go back to the normal schedule.
  5. Things have changed a lot in the past year in the ECONOMY and The Thrift Store industry in Dallas and Paulding. Business has been okay, but people are holding on to their stuff more now than before. We are having to really rally, advertise and locate donations now, where before they were brought to us more. We are helping more families with free clothes and well that is what we are here for and why the IRS granted us a 501c3 status. The reality is still that we have bills to pay each month and nobody pays them for us. The reality also is their is a lot more competition in Paulding County, more
  6. Thanks again for everyone's understanding. People have said that they are cleaning out their closets this weekend and we should be getting the adult clothes we need to kick start next week. Despite the limits today we had a great day. Teresa said she had only one lady complain. I say that is great! We have some great customers....thank you!
  7. We have still had a good show today! Everybody seems to understand that the changing economy changes the way we do a lot of things.
  8. We got a few bags of adult clothes in today, but no enough to include them in the 50c sale. So here is the plan and again sorry about this: For this weekend's 50c Sale we will limit 50c clothing to only include: only: ALL CHILDREN"S CLOTHES (any season is fine) ALL SWEATERS ALL COATS The 25c Rack items will be on Sale for 10c those 2 days Only!! The regular Daily specials for Friday and Sat of course will still be in effect 50% off Toys and animals (Friday) 50% off Purses and Bags (Saturday) Everything should be back to normal by next months 50c Sa
  9. This will be great gift for Mothers Day!
  10. Good idea! You know we have tons of shoes. Find all those 50c Flip Flops! Bring that white plastic shelf out of the container and we can put out more shoes! Thank you! Every little bit helps us get by. If it were not for our loyal donors we would be in trouble.
  11. Mary, you are a good person! I hated to do that, but everybody is having to do things like this with the economy the way it is. Hopefully things will be back to normal next month. I posted a few times for adult clothes and people did respond, but it was only just a few. For the record, we have tons of children's clothes. The change is just adults clothes. That is what we need!
  12. Usually when we prepare for the 50c Sale we have a huge reserve of clothing to put out for the sale. In the past, the 50c sale has been a way to weed out the bulk of our inventory. The 50c Sale is way families are able to buy clothes for their families and still stick to their budgets. We have been assisting more families with help lately and it does take a toll. Hopefully donations will pick up in the coming DAYS with "spring clean outs" that people do in their homes each spring and that should happen any time now. As of right now, we have to make an impromptu decision for the
  13. Everyone should be getting up around now for the big day! I am not going, cause I have wild hair...LOL If there is an 80s movie I am in... After talkings to my employees, I should see alot of our clothes from the Thrift store in the movie scene Good Luck and don't break a leg!!
  14. my chihuahua is now eating just her dog food and not the cat food and her waistline is look'n better, she is getting her girlish figure back. I love the catwalk feeder!
  15. Everytime I see my cats jump on the catwalk, I just have to stop and watch them eat. My chihuahua was starting to put on weight from eating the cat food. The catwalk feeder looks like an expensive piece of furniture that serves such a specfic useful function. I love it so much!
  16. I love this feeder The catwalk feeder has really helped keep my dog's from eating the cat food!
  17. We could definitely use it! Thanks
  18. ANYTHING that is clean and reusuable! Our hours are Mon-Sat 10-6, but call the store I may still be there. There have been nights that I am there until the wee hours of the morning. BUT, I won't open the back door unless I know you, so call ahead 770-505-7707. We have a peep hole in the back door and I can see you through the door
  19. There is usually someone at the store later if you cannot make it by 6pm. Mary at Endless Yard Sale gets all her donations during business hours, and that has worked out for her. We have a doorbell outside the back door. If you need to bring donations after hours and that is your only choice, then ring the bell. I generally work at night because I get more done after hours and I will bring everything in.
  20. Noooo I have a camera and my own footage. It can be uploaded though.
