Holiday Shop Supplies Checklist: Bags, Price Cards and Table Setup

Gifts are only half the order. This checklist covers the bags, price cards and table supplies a school holiday shop needs to run smoothly.

The gifts get the attention, but a shop without bags or price cards slows to a crawl. Add these to the order.

Gift bags

Each child needs a bag to carry gifts home unseen. Our self-sealing gift bags come in packs of 50, in three sizes:

  • Small (5 by 6.5 inches) for pens, key chains and jewelry
  • Medium (8.5 by 12 inches) for most gifts
  • Large (12 by 15 inches) for mugs, plush and several gifts together

Plan on at least one bag per shopper, and more if children bag each gift separately.

Price cards

Every gift needs a clear price. After you order, you can print fold-over price tent cards for each gift from the order in your account, with your own selling prices.

At the cash table

  • Cash box and plenty of small change
  • Calculator
  • Marker for writing names on bags
  • Envelopes for children who bring money from home

For the tables

  • Table covers
  • Signs for each person: Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Brother, Sister, Teacher
  • Boxes under each table for extra stock

More shop supplies are in holiday shop supplies.
