dream of sky

Dear ladies and gents,

It's time for our spring sale! This time round we dreamt up fields of flowers, blue sky as far as the eye can see and lots of pretty floaty things for our photo shoot (all taken by the wonderful Cameron Etchells). Here's a peek at some of the pics...
For more, check out our facebook page here. The sale will be held at the Mt Hawthorn Lesser Hall on the 18th of September from 2pm until we sell out. For more info and to R.S.V.P., go to our event page here.
Hope to see you there!

and now a word from our sponsors...

Or vice versa. We got a lovely post on our facebook page today from the Australian Cancer Research Foundation. Some nice person gave us a bit of a write up on their website telling people about Two Bucks. At the end of the article it said that we've raised almost $22,000 since our first sale in 2007, a fact that I found pretty encouraging. I haven't really kept a close track of what we've sent to the ACRF over the years but it's nice to know that the little bits have added up to something worthwhile!

So, thank you to all of you who support us so that we can support these amazing people and the work they do.

Love,

thank you!

Cheers to everyone who made it out in the yucky, cold weather on Sunday. We raised $3800 for the Australian Cancer Research Foundation!

We've already begun collecting for our next sale that will be on in a few months time as we're hoping to make this one bigger and better than the last. In the meantime you can still get your vintage fix from local sales around town. There's a sale coming up in a couple of week's time, on the 6th of June, that you can get the details for here.


Until we meet again, take care and keep warm!


Love,
Two Bucks 'til Wednesday

to the pole!

We've been a little quiet lately so I thought I'd let you know what's been going on. We've had some lucky trips out to Mandurah with lovely $2 clothing sale days at the shops off Pinjarra Rd. We've even found some amazing things at Zoila's and THAT'S sayin' something. As always, House Op Shop near the foreshore in Rockingham has provided us with armfuls of finds (and some really neat brass bunnies that Anna gave our Mum for Easter). Parish across from Rockingham City always has the sweetest old ladies so we recommend paying a visit there too.


We've got our plans for the next photo shoot so pictures will be posted by the beginning of may at the latest. Don't worry- none of those plans involve any of us being stretched to 6ft and losing 20 pounds so it'll be the same two bucks 'til wednesday-ness as usual.

AND we're heading down to Walpole this week where it's more than likely we'll do huge amounts of op-shopping and eating and playing Ligretto.
So, we hope you all had a lovely Easter break and fingers crossed we've got some rainy weather ahead of us!
Much love,
tbtw

soon be wandering sale day

Hey Folks,

Thanks to everyone who came along last Sunday to help us raise just over $4100 for the Australian Cancer Research Foundation. It was hot and sunny but people were lining up from 10am until the "doors" opened at 2! (Hopefully no one got sunburnt, eep!) Cheers to Emma from Dropstitch and Dani from Streetmuse who were there taking snaps of all the pretty people.

The racks were pretty much cleared out by 3pm and after packing up, Hannah, Martina and I went for a splash in the water fountain installation outside PICA. We could hear the kids screaming with laughter all day and had been looking forward to it from about 10am when we arrived, so it was a sweet, sweet victory.

A big thank you to Georgina Mavor at the Perth Markets for all of her help and being very lovely. Also cheers to Martina and Gordon for their crowd controlling and, of course, Bobby for his delicious cakey pops.

The next sale will be in about 3 months and we'll keep you posted here and on our facebook page.

Thanks again!
Sophia and two bucks 'til wednesday

Up, Up And Away: the day of the sale!

Thanks to everyone who came along this sunny Saturday to get their paws on some cracking vintage threads, you helped us raise $4,600 for the Australian Cancer Research Foundation!!


It was an amazing day, we hope you all had fun and got yourself a pretty piece or five! People were lining up from 9.30am, enjoying the sunshine, getting snapped by dropstitch's Emma (http://www.dropstitch.com.au) and, a bit later on, munching on delicious marshmallow cakie-pops from Bobby the Baker.

Now, wear your lovely new vintage outfits well, and we'll see you in January for the summer sale! Stay tuned...

Love, Two Bucks 'Til Wednesday

p.s.

We'll be handing out tokens for entry at about 1pm to the first 100 people and then when they've gone in, we'll hand out the next 100 tokens. So you'll have to stick around if you want to be in the first 200! We'll be setting up all morning so we won't really have time to hand out tokens any earlier than this. Sorry if I confused anyone with the last post there.

Okey doke, see you on Saturday!

Love,

stampede in the gorge!


Hi all,

I thought I'd let you know that this time round we'll be doing things differently so as to avoid the "stampede in the gorge" effect of the last few sales.

At 2pm the first 100 people lined up will be let in and allowed 30 minutes inside. Then at 2:30pm the next 100 people will be let in and allowed 30 minutes inside. For this first hour it's 3 items max. per customer so that there'll be more to go 'round!

Then at 3pm it's doors open to anyone and everyone and there's no limit to the number of items you can buy!

We'll be giving out tokens for entry to the first 200 people as they arrive, so no sneaky pushing in!!!

Thank you for all of your support, we hope to see you at the sale!!!

Love,
tbtw

P.S. If you have any questions about the sale or what we do, please send your queries to twobuckstilwednesday@hotmail.com.
