- What you Group Name will be. It can be any name as long as your group will remember it!
- What Sale you would like to participate in. (see 2011 Fall schedule above)
- How many warehouse flyers you require to distribute to your group members. The warehouse flyer is a four page colour advertisement that shows photos of some of our thousands of specials, and it also contains the store hours and location. Pleae note that these flyers are not personalized to the groups and are available in PDF format for emailing.
- What address to send your fundraising package to. This package will include your Registration Confirmation Page, Remittance Form and the number of warehouse Flyers you requested. This package can all be sent via email.
- To register your group you can choose from the following:
STEP 2: SHOP
- Distribute the warehouse flyers to all group members.

- Inform your group members of:
- Your Group Name

WARNING: Solicitation of receipts from members of the general public is PROHIBITED and will result in the permanent cancellation of your group.
