10% off SALE this Friday and Saturday! (March 28 and 29)

The Magic Hat Thrift Shop is joining the Chamber of Commerce!

In celebration of our ribbon cutting ceremony (this Friday, March 28th @ 10:30 a.m.) we will be offering 10% off all purchases made that day.  To extend the celebration we’ll also give 10% off all purchases on Saturday, March 29th.

Join us for light refreshments and a bit of extra savings while helping to raise funds to support the PTOs!

Hope to see you there.

Where exactly are you located??

We are located behind the marblehead Veteran’s Middle School, under the old gym, near MHTV-3.

March 28 – Save the Date: Ribbon Cutting!

The thrift shop will be hosting our Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday March 28 at 10:30 a.m. in the shop.

We’ll have mid-morning fare (coffee, juice, muffins, etc) and plenty of fresh bargains. Join us for a break from your errands, some early shopping, and a bite to eat!

PTO Representatives Meeting

The next meeting(s) of representatives for the Magic Hat Thrift Shop will be held on Wednesday, April 2, 2008 at 7pm or Friday, April 4, 2008 at 9am in the shop.

A representative, or person in their stead, MUST attend one of these meetings.  This is one of the requirements that needs to be met in order to qualify for the 35% of funds divided among all schools intending to meet minimum requirements during each allocation period.  A new allocation period begins April 1st.

Please notify Gale at briangale@comcast.net of which meeting your school’s representative plans to attend.  If, by chance, everyone plans to attend the same meeting, the other will be cancelled (do not assume you can miss one meeting and show up at the other without notifying Gale in advance).

This is a meeting where we can address any concerns or questions that may have come up in the last 6 months.  It is also a forum to share information and suggestions.

Funding information from the current period, which ends March 31st, will be made available sometime in mid-April.  If our projections are correct we will surpass previous allocations.

MARCH 1 is the 50 CENT SALE!!

Mark your calendars!!

Saturday March 1 will be the thrift shop’s 50 cent sale!

We’ll be clearing the racks to make room for new donations, and hundreds of items will be marked down to just 50 cents! Swing by on Saturday morning and score yourself a deal.

Magic Hat is now a member of the Chamber of Commerce!

 

Magic Hat recently became members of the Marblehead Chamber of Commerce!

We’re planning a ribbon-cutting soon, look out for news on this special event – refreshments, shopping – what could be better! As they are solidified, more details will be posted here.

Snow Days

When the Marblehead schools close due to snow, the thrift shop will also be closed.  

things are looking good @ the thrift shop…

Hello Everyone! I just wanted to give a brief update on the Magic Hat Thrift Shop:

We are so pleased that Ursula Anderson has come on board as the new manager of the shop. She’s very easy going and well armed with a great sense of humor.

We also want to extend a huge thank you to all the representatives for the schools. Trying to get volunteers for anything can be like pulling teeth but somehow they have managed to cajole folks into giving a bit of their time. If things continue as well as they’ve been going, we expect to release the largest allocation to date this coming April!

Let’s all hope that things only go up from here. Every day someone new discovers us and if they bring a friend…growth could be remarkable. Thanks for all the help and support!
