price tags on them we since we have a thrift store we get donations cash register are expected to place the purchase item in the bag sometimes we'll ask the customer if they want some tissue paper if the bag is going to be a gift bag for someone and then we might even have to put it into bags if we have a couple of gift bags and then put that in a big shopping bag so that someone can safely take their items out of the store that's really good yeah as when say thank you thank you thank you for asking why we do our thrift store we have a really basic cash register that has it's almost like a calculator and it does mostly hold dollars because we're selling clothes so we don't have to have tax so people can learn on that cash register st and then our cash register in our gifts store is a little bit more complicated and computerized and requires a different type of training to be able to use the back cash register but we do have to cash registers in the stores  hi carol jessica look things do you still in our gift store we sell different types of gift items some of the items are wholesale so something that we might buy from a big  company like gun teddy bears or candles from a company and then some of the other stuff that we sell are made by people that go to one of our programs we have our director at our program in watertown and they make crafts  that are then sold in our stores we also buy from the public so if someone is a good artist and wants to sell their art pieces of artwork in our store we can sell that in our store as well in our thrift store we s women's
