Cleaning Out Your Closets? You Should!

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

It’s that time of year and all that extra STUFF in your house  just has to go!  If you are clearing out furniture and decorative items, or children’s or men’s items, check out our online consignment community ConsignmentChic.com for a place to sell them near you.

But if you have authentic designer handbags, prom or pageant gowns, Mother-of-the-Bride gowns, pretty Spring Transitional items, St John Knits and other high-end brands or Chico’s, Talbots, and better store brands, BRING THEM TO COLLAGE!  Pageant and prom are in HIGH DEMAND right now and Mother-of-the-Bride is always in demand.  Bring them in today!

We are officially accepting SPRING items now so start bringing them in!  Our Winter Clearance is going on now, so we are done accepting Winter items for now – unless you have ski wear.  No appointment is necessary unless you would like to bring items on Saturdays.  Click here to learn more about consigning with Collage.  Call Homewood at 205-879-6163 or Vestavia at 205-822-3991 if you have any questions.

SAVE MONEY and MAKE MONEY at COLLAGE!

See you soon!

It’s Time for the Clearance Countdown!!!

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

clearance-sale-logoThis is the SALE you’ve been waiting for!!  We only run this sale twice a year and THIS Wednesday the Clearance Countdown SALE begins!  On Wednesday, March 4, take 60% off Clearance items, on Thursday take 70% off, Friday take 80% off and on Saturday – FOR ONE DAY ONLY – take 90% off all red-lined clearance items!  Items will go quickly so come in NOW to get the BEST SELECTION.  If you haven’t been to a Clearance Countdown Sale at Collage Designer Consignment, here are some shopping tips to get the most out of this RARE EVENT! 
 ladies-sale
Countdown SALE Shopping Tips 
 
1 – Don’t wait until Saturday to come in because your favorite items probably won’t make it to the final day of the sale.  Shop on Wednesday or Thursday to get your MUST HAVES and then come back Friday or Saturday for garage sale prices on what’s left!
 
2 – If you haven’t been to a COLLAGE CLEARANCE COUNTDOWN SALE before, take this advice – Eat your Wheaties and wear comfortable shoes!!!  You’ll be power shopping along with a lot of other folks so you’ll need plenty of fuel!
 
3 – Because these are the ABSOLUTE lowest prices you’ll find, this is a GREAT time to bring your friends to shop with you.  You’ll all have a FABULOUS time and get MAJOR BARGAINS at the same time!  Example – A suit that originally retailed for $300 that COLLAGE priced at $99 will be $9.99 on Saturday!!!  If we didn’t need the space, there is NO WAY we could offer prices THIS LOW!  And after Saturday – it won’t be here!
 
4 – This is the only week of the season that COLLAGE has the COUNTDOWN so DON”T MISS THIS SALE!! 
 
And don’t forget to forward this to your friends!  They’ll be so hurt if you don’t tell them about this HUGE SALE at COLLAGE!!  Don’t wait too long to come in – you’ll definitely miss some INCREDIBLE DEALS!!!  See you soon!

Collage is HOT!

Tuesday, February 17th, 2009

I hope you’re already following what we’re doing at Collage, but just in case – have you seen our tv show?  We created a television show on CW21 on Saturday mornings about the Thrill of Shopping Consignment called ‘Consignment Chic‘ and it has been a hit!  We were #1 in our time slot on our pilot episode and by week 5 our number of viewers had almost doubled!  We’ve wrapped our first season and are now running the Consignment Chic Minute‘ on CW21 all throughout the day – every day!
 
In the last 4 weeks, we’ve been featured in the Birmingham Weekly, Birmingham News, Birmingham Business Journal online, A Morning Jolt internet newsletter, interviewed by AARP (a national publication), on ABC 33/40’s Talk of Alabama and ABC 33/40’s 10:00pm News, on NBC Midday and will be in Southern Living soon!
 
We’ve created a bus tour of consignment shops that ran in January and we go again THIS Saturday, February 21.  Call 879-6163 or go by any location of Collage to sign up!  Watch our bus tour commercial on our website, www.consignmentchic.com for a sneak peak at the shopping, great discounts and fun we are going to have on Saturday!
 
We’ll be on NBC’s Midday somewhere between 11:15am and 11:35am tomorrow (Tuesday, Feb 17, 2009) to talk about the Chic bus tour, so catch us then!
 
What does all that mean to you?  You are shopping and consigning with the BEST in the industry and the quality of incoming merchandise is FIRST RATE!  Each year of our 17 years, I think our merchandise couldn’t get any better and each season it does!  More press for us means more FABULOUS items for YOU!
 
There’s always more to come – from Collage!
See you soon!
