Poetry for consignment, resale and thrift shops

November 11, 2011 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

…did you see ReFab’s reduced-price event’s slogan:

Good ways to say things for resale, thrift and consignment shops

More Zing

Less Cha-Ching!

Now that’s using poetry, huh? And especially appropriate, I think, as we enter the gift-shopping season. Who wouldn’t want their gifts to have more zing… and set them back less cha-ching?

How about, for Thanksgiving weekend, filling your windows top to bottom with stacks of shiny metallic wrapped boxes and wired bows, with this slogan above it?

File this one away under “good ways to say things“

Any other catchy phrases you’ve seen, or perhaps written yourself? Share!

    Resale is perfect for women who were born with stainless spoons in their mouths.
