Running the Store

Here's a list of stuff to do if you're running the Thrift Store. Use your store volunteers well. Don't forget to check out our Store Prices (although they should be posted by the register as well).

This article was completely out-of-date, so here's a first stab at a rewrite:

Preparing the Store for Opening

• Vacuum
• Reload Monitors
• Reload cards, printers, etc, time permitting
• Tidy and merchandise

End of day Closing Procedures

• Doing the till
• Bring in Free Table
• Turn off Everything
• Secure and lock

About Work Modes

Like any job, there is a regular basket of tasks that come up in running the store. By having defined modes, it is both easier to describe these baskets as well simplifying thinking about streamlining them.
