Find Store with Item I Need by Next Friday

[melaniepc]

okay what kind of store has this? I have looked everywhere and I cannot find one. I really want one by next friday at my show.

target, kohls (maybe), wal-mart. I would look in the 'photo' section, as they can come in all different styles.

If you are talking about the metal ones with little clips on them (usually used for photos), you should be able to find them at Target, K-mart, WalMart, or specialty stores like Aaron Bros., or possibly even Michaels. They should be in the same area as picture frames. Good luck

I got one for $7 at target- its different than the traditional one you see... but it is cute and serves the same purpose.

I have that same one, got it at Kohls though. I saw one with clips on them at Kohls also.

I went to a regular Walmart the other day and couldn't find one to save my life. I don't know if a SuperCenter might have more of a selection though. I have yet to get to Kohl's or Target, but they are next on my list.

What is a booking tree? I get that you guys are using the clip photo holders, but do you put booking slips on it to encourage bookings or what?

What I do is put dates I have available then put a picture of a PC product ( usually 15 and under) on the back. I encourage guests to pick a date to hold a party and then they get a free gift. They do not get the gift until they hold and close there party though. HTH

I have index cards with about 5 or 6 of my available dates for shows on them. On the back of the index card I have room for the person booking to put their name and contact information and a spot for me to put the date that I gave them their hostess packet.

I just got mine at Kohl's, it was on the bargin table for $5.00.

It has room for 5 date cards, since I plan on doing 4 shows a month, it will work very well .

Hope this helps :chef:

I looked in target , walmart and kohls and nothing. I am looking in the frame section, I dont get it . I guess I should just order it online but the shipping is almost as much as the thing itself

I got mine about 2 months ago, but I saw some like Cassie got at our Target last week. I could pick you up one and mail it, but it is probably going to be the same if you buy it online and pay the shipping.

Just saw these are Aaron Bros last night...they're having their buy 1 get the 2nd for a peny sale too!

Wow that sounds like a good way to ease into asking for bookings. I think I might get one of those and try it. It looks like I will have my 4 shows in my first 30 days and I have another in the works, but every little bit of help I can get sounds good to me.

I guess I'm cheap! I just got one for $1 at the Dollar Tree!

 

[jrstephens]

Bed Bath and Beyond have them too.

AWESOME!! I will have to look at our Dollar Tree here and see if they have them.

I have been looking for the past month in dollar trees, dollar generals, walmarts, anywhere I go and I cannot find one anywhere. I've really been wanting to do this at my shows. Hopefully I'll find one soon.

 

[melaniepc]

I can't find one either. I have looked at a ton of stores. I guess I just need to order it online

I posted this on another thread but you can do this in other forms.
At Easter I got the plastic eggs and wrote dates on them and there was a slip of paper inside that had that dates incentives. Then I put them in a basket on the table were the guests ate.
In May I made flowers and had them in a pot. They were made out of foam and Dum-Dum suckers.
I want to do Pilgrams for Thanksgiving and Trees or Snowmen for Christmas.
You can also use mini gift bags, tiny gift baskets or take out boxes that you can get at the Dollar Tree.

OOPS! I forgot to write what I was originally posting about!!
Watch the "seasonal" Clearance at Wal-Mart, and other such places, often they have things that aren't as seasonal as they want you to believe!!
I have a flower that can be used much of the year. March-August are great for spring and Summer flowers and Feb. is Valentine's Day so flowers are ok.
Just an idea but...like I said before...I am cheap!!
