  • Join their email list at the checkout counter for advance notice of seasonal sales and special events that aren't advertised elsewhere.

  • Bring your own shopping bags to both save resources and make carrying purchases easier.
  • Don't hesitate to ask volunteers about upcoming merchandise—they often know what's being processed in the back room.
  • Visit consistently rather than occasionally, as inventory turns over quickly and regular shoppers find the best treasures.
