Vintage JoAnn

Last week was our one year anniversary for Vintage JoAnn.

I had sent fliers and e mails to every one I knew and my store mailing list advertising sales, discounts, and coupons.

In retail one never knows how things will turn out, even bad weather can depress sales.   During the York Fair my business was really slow since every one was there!

Much to my delight and gratitude the anniverary sale was a hit!   All week sales were great, and lots of new folks came in plus all my regulars.

Everyone that came in was rewarded with a discount on something.  I had a few baskets filled with 1 and 2 dollar items and they were a big hit.

The week was my highest weekly sales ever!   Thank you everyone!

I made my bank deposit and Mon. morning was out looking for more treasures of which I found plenty!

Lately people are coming in the store selling the coolest vintage clothing and accessories.  Almost every day something new is put out.   This morning a neighbor stopped in to sell me 3 lovely vanity fair nighties and a leather frame purse.

2 of the nighties were bought by noon.   I try to give fair prices because people bring in the best stuff that way.

Halloween continues to bring people in for costumes and we still have loads of great items left including a size small flapper costume and a size small red poodle skirt, a grecian goddess costume, plus lots of period looks.

Loads of 60’s and 70’s looks plus 40’s dresses and hats from every decade are here.  I also have men’s hats, and accessories so your costumes can match.
