I was cleaning out files the other day and came across this layout for a quarter-sheet bag stuffer I made up for a nonprofit resale shop I used to volunteer with. Which reminded me how much fun a Secret Santa event or promotion can be in your shop!
(Admittedly, having a parking lot clearance sale in November and December is easier when you live in Florida, but my resale friends are very inventive, I know…)
Another idea I ran across and shared on the TGtbT Facebook Page:

More ideas to have your shop help kids shop for holiday gift-giving? Check these out:
- Collect all those mugs. Tuck the idea of making Russian tea at home in them. Let the kids choose their favorites for all their family and friends. Recipe for the tea mix is onĀ Recycled Holidays, or maybe you’ll have small baggies of peppermints “free with any mug”…
- Don’t sell much that would appeal to kids’ imagination or budget? Team up with a childrenswear consignment or resale shop and have a Special Santa Shop at your place, stocked by them, promoted by both businesses. Throw in a teenage “Mrs. Santa” to help the little ones out, and grab some adorable photos for your social media!
- Check out all our Christmas posts.
Remember: Having a fun promotion during the holiday season isn’t just kids’ play…
