We have markdowns that I haven't started. For the last couple days I've just been trying to process all of our shipment so that I can reduce the amount of our boxes that go into back stock. Yesterday and today I spent my last hour in back trying to clear things up and get all of our things into bays. The trouble is, that right now we have an overflow of out stock shoes, specifically sandals and TOMS. Anni recently filled TOMS and they aren't especially light, so filling won't remedy the problem, there aren't any empty bins and there definitely isn't any room for them where the TOMS are stacked. I have a strong feeling that many of the bins of shoes, men's and women's may contain dime outs, but we have a visit tomorrow, so it was more important to find a short term solution and one that wasn't too time consuming. So I pegged out the cork wall that was previously a TOMS wall and I filled it out. Of course I couldn't find enough shoe hangers, so I didn't finish putting them all out (though they would not have all fit). Yesterday I piled the platform sneakers into an open space in the shoe bay. It is certainly a temporary fix, but it works for now to get rid of some boxes. I looked at the calender and we have another set of jobouts on the 11th, so I hope this helps us make some space. Sandals need to get out. The fact that we keep getting them but haven't put most of them out is contributing to the box build up to a great degree. But I know Anni and Morgin have been thinking about solutions, so things will get back to order soon.
I've had a crazy two days, so we'll chat tomorrow.
Good Night!
