every store should have a sales rack – that’s a given.  who doesn’t love a deal?  i’m always thrilled to find that special dress that’s just a wee bit out of my price range on the sales rack.  it’s like fate wanted me to have it, right?

anyway – markdowns vary  – usually between 20 – 60% off is the norm.  but one of the most interesting sales racks i’ve come across was at a darling shop in San Francisco called Brown Eyed Girl.

instead of hiding the sales rack in the back of the store (totally recommended, by the way) – they had it placed right at the front door.  but that wasn’t the interesting part of it – they had an unusual sign that read:

 ”Sales Rack:  Name Your Own Price! …all reasonable offers considered.” 

now that’s fun.  has anyone tried this?  i never did – but i would right now.  not only would it generate some buzz – but i think it’s possible to get a better price on certain items that you expected.  plus – what customer wouldn’t want to name their own price?

Any other fun sales rack tips?  let’s share them…
