Inventory System

We have started using a new inventory system that will do a much better job of keeping up with markdowns. The new tags have the markdown assigned and we won't have to go around with that red pen any longer. When we started the new system September 1st we also started a new markdown system. We will be no longer waiting 90 days for that first red line. At 45 days we will deduct 15%, 45 more days another 15% and 45 days another 15%. Again, the system does it for us and we can move things along a little faster. If at the end of six months the item has not sold the consignor has the option to pick up the item or donate it to one of our many places in town that could use a helping hand. Come in and check it out. Let me know what you think.

Rugs, Rugs, & More Rugs...

We have a huge selection of rugs right now. I think I shall have a sale!!! I am going to take a bunch of photos and update the web site with a "set" for everyone to see.
I have been out of commision for a few weeks - rotator cuff surgery - the right one and yes I am right handed. The explaination for no updates to the blog. But I would really like to comment on how nice the general public has been. People see me coming with the arm in a sling and immediately offer to assist me in any way possible. It has been very uplifting and brings a special warmth inside to know that people are so kind. So if you ever see someone that looks like they might need your help - know that you could make them feel warm and fuzzy inside by simply offering!!!
