BTS Sale: Puyallup

On August 1, 2024, although the summer heat in Seattle was not too bad, it was unbearable under the sun. We worked overtime before the summer to prepare more than 500 pieces of clothing.


Because the location was farther away than normal and there were a lot of clothes, we invited two extra helping hands. With two full cars, we set off for an hour and a half drive to JBF Puyallup.



Although the location was far away, it is a larger building than before, and it is organized more carefully, not only by gender, age, and size but also by occasion like sportswear, pajamas, and tops and bottoms.


We registered and inspected the clothes quickly, and then we had to hang each piece in their destined area. The venue was so large that we didn't know how to start or where to go. After everyone's efforts, we returned home before dark.


Because the drive was long, we didn't go check on the progress during the sales period. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. on pickup day, an hour and a half earlier than the appointment time.



We thought we could get more hangers if we arrived early, but we stood at the door for two hours before it opened. We were the first in line and were able to rush in to the hanger bin. We brought back hundreds of hangers for next time, including many trousers clips that we lacked before.


We successfully sold 100 pieces this time, which is the most we’ve sold in one event. This time, we raised $289 after JBF's cut.


With our passion and commitment strong, we wait until the next step in our journey.

2024年8月1日,西雅图的夏天虽然不是那么的炎热,但在太阳底下也是受不了的。我们在放假前已经加班加点把这次5百多件衣服准备好了。


因为此次活动的地点远衣物多,特邀请了两位爸爸帮忙,两辆车满满当当载着大家的期盼出发,一个半小时才开到。此次Just bewteen  friends 卖场虽然远、但是一个比以前更大的卖场,并且划分为更为仔细,不光分男女,年龄,大中小,还分运动装,睡衣,上下装。


我们紧锣密鼓地注册,卸货,挂衣服,验货,然后要把每一件衣服分男女和型号准确的送到卖场的每一个角落的架子上,我们从不知如何下手,到拿起衣服就知道往哪里跑…..据我肉眼可见我们的货最多,经过大家努力,我们在天黑前回到了家。



因为路途远,我们在销售期间没有去看。周日晚上是pick up day,我们6:00pm到了比预约时间提早了一个半小时。原想早到能多拿一些衣架,结果门口站了两个小时才开门,我们排在第一个冲进去直奔衣架。为大家带回了上百个衣架、其中有很多一直稀缺的裤夹。


这次成功卖出了一百件,是最多的一次。 因为标价低加上分成,我们赚了二百八十九刀。

  没有经验的我只带了个盒子,剩下的四百来件把我俩累坏了。回家立马下单买了有轮子的小拖车,再也不怕货多啦!


我们会继续努力的,

儿童午餐团队
