Talk:Store Improvements

We used to have a "wish list", that was a real hassle. It was difficult to seek, grab or find the item. And then we had to play phone tag or hope they responded to e-mail, only to find they were no longer interested.

Shawn's suggestion that we could ask them to prepay for items we know we could put together sounds good to me though.

There is a fairly current price list, written in OO writer, that could be put on the store computer. In the past, with just a couple of us working in the store, we pretty much had the prices memorized, though there was a binder under the counter for a time. But with more people covering the store, it will be necessary to have a current list at their finger tips. As a side note. In the early days, we had a basic list of common items, but the rest was up to the "store guy" to guess or ebay a price, and in any case move the stuff back into use at any price.

I was kind of thinking of posting it so the cashier had easy-easy access while typing up receipts. Kind of like in the grocery store.

Sometimes, during the one or two times when things were hectic in the store and I didn't have time to go check prices, I went all old school and made up prices. You still do it for some items like the laptop bags ($2-8, right?)

I scribbled a list of clean up items that need to be done regularly. I think we should request a volunteer shift to help us keep up with things like cleaning monitors, untangling and sorting cords customers leave out daily, and vacuuming and dusting shelves, etc.

Ooh! Will you put it on the Store Volunteering page? I'll flesh it out as we get more stuff to do for volunteers.
