Biggest Saleday Ever!
Oct. 24th, 2021 07:14 pmYesterday when I got to work (10 minutes before we opened), the parking lot was already full! After opening the register I said "bring it on!" and people POURED in as soon as we unlocked the door. The first couple hours were crazy, so many people and books going out the door! The customers kept telling me how fun they had shopping lol, they definitely missed that sale. :P I kept checking the total in the register when I had a spare moment..it was awesome when we got over $2000 with hours to spare, and was shocked when we were about to go over $3000. Our best one-day sale ever was $2000 something, and we were definitely going to beat that! And it didn't stop there, I checked near the end of the day and Denise and I couldn't believe our eyes when we broke FOUR THOUSAND dollars!!! That absolutely obliterates the previous record! It was fun, but I was absolutely exhausted by the end (I would try to say something and be too tired to finish talking haha!). It was epic though. Denise closed and saw we were waaay off, but she was too tired to count everything a third time, so she figured we could fix it when we were fresh lol. Indeed, she came in today and recounted everything, and we were only 5 cents short!!! Wowww. That's so awesome. :D We're *definitely* going to be busy shelving and straightening up the store this week LOL
