			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>every store should have a sales rack &#8211; that&#8217;s a given.  who doesn&#8217;t love a deal?  i&#8217;m always thrilled to find that special dress that&#8217;s just a <em>wee </em>bit out of my price range on the sales rack.  it&#8217;s like fate wanted me to have it, right?</p>
<p>anyway &#8211; markdowns vary  &#8211; usually between 20 &#8211; 60% off is the norm.  but one of the most interesting sales racks i&#8217;ve come across was at a darling shop in San Francisco called <a href="http://www.shopbrowneyedgirl.com/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.shopbrowneyedgirl.com/?referer=');">Brown Eyed Girl</a>.</p>
<p>instead of hiding the sales rack in the back of the store (totally recommended, by the way) &#8211; they had it placed right at the front door.  but that wasn&#8217;t the interesting part of it &#8211; they had an unusual sign that read:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> &#8221;<strong>Sales Rack:  Name Your Own Price! &#8230;<em>all reasonable offers considered</em></strong>.&#8221; </p>
<p>now that&#8217;s fun.  has anyone tried this?  i never did &#8211; but i would right now.  not only would it generate some buzz &#8211; but i think it&#8217;s possible to get a <em>better </em>price on certain items that you expected.  plus &#8211; what customer wouldn&#8217;t want to name their own price?</p>
<p>Any other fun sales rack tips?  let&#8217;s share them&#8230;</p>
