Customers.....

[Another Time Antiques]

well........it's true!

My B&M store is going on "by chance or appt only" for the month of February. First time in 13 years of owning a store I've done this. But..... so many are shopping online so I'm staying home to beef up my Stores business online. Seems the extremes are the way: Salvation Army or Megga Mall...
It's getting a "little" frustrating to make a beautiful shop ... for just me to see!

......sorry......guess the skies are a little too grey around here lately!

Barbara,
The shop I consign in has sharply curtailed their hours for the winter. She's only open when the sun is shining through the door! That means she opens at 11 and closes at 4.

We had a store here just put out a sign that said "sorry, we have decided to close during the winter months."

That is exactly what I did with my B&M store. We are open the first part of the year because I prepare taxes. We also buy at that time, especially jewelry. After that it is by appointment only since I make more selling on line than waiting for one or two customers to come in a day. Saves on utilities, too!
