Employees’ Children’s Used Clothing Sale<\/h3>\n

This is a great way to stretch your employee pay checks, and have a low or no cost social event.<\/p>\n

Children outgrow many of their clothes before they wear them out. Employees save money by buying slightly used clothes.<\/p>\n

Here’s an easy way to set up your Clothing Sale.<\/p>\n

Set up a large room with tables. Put a sign over each table telling what size and sex the clothes are for. To add to the fun, employees can also bring in pictures of their children and tape them to the posters. Employees bring in outgrown clothes that are still in very good condition. Each item should be already marked with masking tape and include the following information. (Masking tape will come off easily and will not harm most fabrics.)<\/p>\n

1. The price of the item<\/p>\n

2. The size of the item<\/p>\n

3. The employee’s name<\/p>\n

Have a check out table where one person collects the money, and takes the piece of masking tape from the item to record the sale, and give credit to the right employee. At the end of the sale, distribute the money, and give employees a time limit to pick up their unsold items. Give left over clothing to the Salvation Army or other charity.<\/p>\n

“A gnome,” comes the reply. “I steal food from humans, I kill their plants, I make annoying music at night to drive them crazy, and I love mischief.<\/p>\n

And what, may I ask, are you?”<\/p>\n
