Why Should I Consign with The Saturday Club?
By participating, consignors help The Saturday Club raise funds that support our philanthropic grant program that furthers our mission of providing aid to women’s and children’s charities in the greater Philadelphia region.
Consignors receive 55-65% of their sales!
You have the option of picking up unsold items or having them donated to a local charity.
Consignors set their own prices!
Consignors can opt out of the 1/2 price sale by adding a red dot to their Yellow Tags.
How does the Consignment Sale work?
Consignor registration opens approximately 8 weeks before the sale.
During registration, consignors pick their drop-off day, white or yellow tags, and whether tags should be returned. Once registered, items should be hung, priced, and tagged in accordance with the below guidelines.
At drop-off, volunteers will review each item – checking for proper hanging, item quality, price, etc. – please allow 15–20 minutes! You may need to wait in line and you may have items returned to you.
The Sale runs from Thursday evening to Sunday afternoon.
- Thursday – Preview Night with $10 admission (consignors enter free!)
- Friday – sale is open all-day
- Saturday – 50% Sale Day: all white tags and yellow tags WITHOUT a red dot become 50% off
- Sunday – 50% Sale until 12pm; Sale reopens from 1-2pm for the $10 Fill-a-Bag Sale, which includes only remaining white-tagged items. All white tag items remaining after the Fill-a-Bag Sale are then donated.
- Tuesday – consignors pick up their unsold, yellow-tagged items.
Over the following several weeks, volunteers will reconcile sale records, mail tags to consignors, and issue consignor payments.

How do I make my tags?
Tag Template Options and instructions can be found HERE. Please read through all details in the link as new information has been provided.
Print on bright yellow or white cardstock. Your tags will most likely fall off if you use printer paper, and we cannot credit the sale of an item without a tag.
- Purchase white cardstock at Staples here.
- Purchase yellow cardstock at Amazon here.
Fill out a tag completely for each item.
- Please make sure your tags are legible – especially the price and consignor number.
- During the sale, some tags inevitably fall off and completed tags help us reunite lost tags with their items so that you get proper credit for the sale.
How do I prepare my items for the Sale?
1. Tag all Items
- Use a tagging gun. It saves times and works better than pins. Here is a link to purchase.
- A completed tag must be attached via tagging gun or safety pin to the brand tag or size tag of each item.
Note: Tags are removed at checkout – do not attach the tag to any material that will be damaged when the tag is removed.
Quick tips on tagging non-clothing items:
- Shoes: Shoes MUST be attached together with a rubber band or zip ties. There should be only ONE tag per pair of shoes (this can be taped to the sole of one shoe). Children’s shoes can be placed together in one large zip-loc bag and tagged on the outside of the bag.
- Jewelry: All jewelry MUST be enclosed in a sealed plastic bag with a tag taped to the bag or item. Secure sets together using safety pins or a tagging gun.
- Purses & Belts: use tape or string to secure tags around handles or buckles.
- Please fold all jeans and workout pants. Dress pants and jeans without belt loops should be hung on clip hangers.
- Please fold all children’s pants and leggings.
2. Fold:
- Jeans
- Workout pants
- Children’s pants and leggings
3. Hang: Everything else!
How should I price my items?
- Items that sell the best are priced at around 80% off the original retail price. Items priced $15 & under sell the best.
- $5 minimum price for yellow-tagged items: Due to the added effort to sort yellow-tagged items, these items may not be priced under $5.
- Full Dollar Amounts: please price your items using full dollar amounts. For example, an item should be $5 not $4.99 or $4.95. If a price does not align to this format, we will round it down to the nearest dollar – $4.99 will be rounded to $4 (or $2 if at the half price sale).
- Half Price Sale:
- Saturday kicks off our half-price sale and anything that hasn’t yet sold will be marked down 50%, EXCEPT FOR items that have a yellow tag with a large red dot (a red Sharpie works great) on the lower right-hand corner of the tag.
- ALL white tagged items will be marked down to 50% of the stated tag price.
