More and More LIBRARIANS Are Holding
in-school gift shopping programs to raise funds for the library!
VALENTINE'S DAY GIFT SHOP
MOTHER'S DAY BOUTIQUE
SANTA'S SHOP / HOLIDAY SHOP
All three programs are GREAT fund-raisers and EASY to run. Here's why:

| Rolling Metal Case |
|
| We pack the gifts in Rolling Metal Display Cases, just like a book fair!
We deliver the cases right into your sales area (library), set them in place and open them up for you. We loan you a pre-programmed cash register, provide announcement flyers, money envelopes, gift bags for each item, shopping bags for each student and advertising posters.
All gifts are pre-priced with our simple category codes - those same codes are pre-programmed into the cash register so selling is easy!
Daily re-orders are available.
YOU MAKE
25% CASH PROFIT!
(Many schools make more profit off Santa's Shop/Holiday shop than their book fair.)
Close the cabinets at night for security or roll them to a new sales location each day if necessary.
At the end, we come and pickup the cases.
Payment is made after the sale - simply fill out the no-brainer Billing Summary and send in with payment.

Food For Thought!
Kids are going to purchase holiday gifts somewhere. It might as well be from your library where the profits will help you acquire additional books and supplies!
|
Here's a plan for action that's easy to follow:
Hold your book fairs in early-to-mid fall and again in mid-to-late spring.
In the meantime, change up things!
Offer SANTA'S SHOP/HOLIDAY SHOP in December!
You can also hold VALENTINE'S DAY GIFT SHOP in February!
For those of you who need to take inventory of the library in May
and don't want to mess with books at that time,
hold MOTHER'S DAY BOUTIQUE in May instead!
Many schools hold books fairs and all three gift shop programs. Others mix-and-match to the school's schedule. We understand book fairs because we provide book fairs - therefore, we understand how to juggle several different sales during the school year. Call us for advise on suggested sales dates and what we think will work for your school!
