Your registration form and $5 seller fee must be received by this date.

Why be a Carousel Seller?
All sellers receive at least 60% on each sold item.  When you volunteer, you receive 70% on each sold item.  It's so easy—just tag your items, drop them off the Wednesday or Thursday before the sale, and we will take care of the rest!

1: Register to be a seller and pay the $5.00 seller fee by Friday, September 19, 2008. Download the registration form (Adobe PDF, 76k), fill it out, and mail it in with a check for $5 made out to Holy Cross Lutheran Church.  The seller fee helps us cover the cost of the sale, including publicity and administration.

2: Prepare your items.  Clean out your house and garage for all of the gently used items, birth through teen, that you don’t need or use anymore.  We are accepting FALL and WINTER clothing only, and all items must be clean and in excellent condition.  The seller instruction packet (Adobe PDF, 140k) details what types of items are accepted, as well as how to tag & price your items.

3: Tag your items.  Follow our tag guidelines in the seller instruction packet (Adobe PDF, 140k) to ensure that your items will be accepted for sale.  Sellers are required to have either $50 worth of clean, tagged items ready to sell at the time of drop-off, or a minimum of 15 different clean, tagged items ready to sell.

4: Consider volunteering to work a three-hour shift at the sale on Friday and/or Saturday.  Volunteers receive 70% of their sale proceeds (instead of 60%) and are eligible to shop at the pre-sale on Thursday evening from 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.  Visit our volunteer information page to find out more.

5: Drop off your tagged items.  Drop off at Holy Cross Lutheran Church on Wednesday, September 24th from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. or Thursday, September 25th from 12:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. 

6: Shop at the sale on Friday, September 26th and Saturday, September 27th. The sale is open to the public from 9:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. on Friday and from 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. on Saturday at the HALF-PRICE SALE.

7: Pick-up your unsold items & your check on Saturday, September 27th from 1:30 – 3:00 p.m. You may also choose to donate them to charity—items not picked up by 3:00 p.m. will automatically be donated to Love, INC.
