Why join the Crew? 

Never helped at a Kids EveryWEAR event before? The Crew enjoys the fellowship of fellow moms & dads! A change of pace. New faces. New friends... And FIRST PICK OF ALL THE GREATEST BARGAINS! It doesn't matter whether you sign up to work before during or after the sale, if you join the Crew, you shop first! Imagine shopping in a nearly empty store, with shorter lines, cheaper prices, and all the good stuff still ripe for the picking! We offer extended presales – the longest in town – exclusive to the Crew.

What would I be doing?

Crew positions range from scanning tags of items to be purchased, to organizing toys, clothing, and accessories before or during the sale, to sorting the unsold items after the final day of the sale, to setting up before the sale and breaking down the racks after the sale, to watching doors and answering questions or helping at drop-off get consignors checked-in and directing them, to helping man our fitting rooms. When you register, you can choose which type of position you want. We have sitting positions, standing positions, and positions for almost anyone. This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. us if you have questions or if you can't find a slot that works for you.

But I have small children at home...

Believe it or not, almost NO schedule is too full. We'll find a way to work with you if you want to find a way to work for us! There are countless opportunities to serve before during and even after the sale! Mothers with newborn infants are welcome to babywear if they can successfully complete their Crew obligations.

Brief Descriptions of Boutique Bash Crew Opportunities

Regular Crew choose (1) regular shift and shop the day before consignors.

Super Crew chooses any (2) regular shifts OR 1 designated [S] super shift and shop for several EXCLUSIVE HOURS before Regular Crew.

Super Duper Crew chooses (3) regular shifts OR (2) [S] super shifts. You shop first on Crew shop day! (Note: a regular slot that gives Super credit cannot be combined with a regular slot to obtain Super Duper status.)

Die-Hard Crew - Had fun joining the Crew last time? Kick it up a notch! Work a combination of (4) regular or [S] super shifts. We request that each Diehard work at least one EVENING or WEEKDAY shift if at all possible! New Diehards must work 3 shifts before your shopping time.

Marathon Crew works a combination of any 6 regular or super [S] shifts for our Boutique Bash and get to shop very first! This select group also gets the privilege of receiving 100% commission on any items they sell up to the first $1200 in sales. Marathon positions must be applied for. Marathoners must have worked as a Diehard for one sale prior to requesting Marathon approval.

LOVE to organize? Wanna be a "department manager"?

Seeking out one special Crew member per area to work diehard hours during drop-offs and other times during the sale to keep up with organizing (and re-organizing). Wonder why our book area is so beautiful? It has a "manager"! Diehard Crew shop VERY first! Diehards shop prior to Crew Day. This is the very best way to make sure you find all the goodies on your wish list - first dibs and no crowds! Looking for the inside track? This is it! 

Splitting Shifts

Husbands, grandparents, teens 16 and up, etc. may work all or some of your BB Crew hours you sign up for. Keep in mind, the intent of these extended Crew options is to limit the amount of training and shift changes necessary during the busiest sale times, and these Crew members are needed for critical, skill-specific jobs.

Non-Traditional Crew Opportunities/Bartering

Have a unique service to offer? A special talent? The generosity and help we receive, often in non-traditional venues, blesses us more than you can imagine! Click on Bartering to see what you might be able to trade us for a shop early pass! Let's make a deal!

How do I view the available slots?

Click on the register button in the right sidebar, choose Crew, and read through the Crew terms. The next screen will show you all available slots, except meal slots which you can see after entering the password listed on the Barter page of the website.

Wanted: A Few Strong Folks

You can even send your husband or partner! We need a few strong folks to help out, especially at setup and breakdown and working our amazing Holds Department! Or they can work with you to earn you twice the hours you would earn alone! A typical "female" is usually unable to do these heavy-lifting shifts.

We Welcome Grandparents

We welcome Grandparents to work in your stead and even have tasks suited for those with physical limitations.

Reliable Teens

Reliable teens, age 16 and up, may join the Crew for slots to earn you extra Crew status. However, teens age 16-17 may only sign up for one shift and then request approval to do more in the future.

We need Crew to man our doors and help at the fitting rooms! 

We need greeters to interface with shoppers. Our greeters check passes and/or ID to ensure that we are honoring the commitments that those entitled to shop early have made to the sale. They scan tickets on ticket days. We need friendly, enthusiastic folks who can graciously explain to passersby why they might not be permitted to shop at a given time and make them feel welcome to return at a later time.

During preview sales and public shopping times, we also ask the door person to help us maintain security by checking receipts of exiting shoppers and inside bins and luggage.

Finally, those who serve in this position direct shoppers and answer general questions. Clearly, these tasks are of tremendous importance!

Door positions require that you download the Ticket Tailor Checkin App and scan tickets with your phone. We are no longer using TazoTix. Please bring a charging cord. We can log you in when you arrive. Download here for Apple. Download here for Google. Thanks!

The fitting room crew sorts unwanted items at the fitting rooms, puts items back, and helps customers test items.

It's time to pick your Crew slots!

Bartering

Email us atif you might be able to help in the areas listed below. 

• Join our Share Squad aka Launch Team if you are willing to Share Kids EveryWEAR by giving every FB post a heart and comment and then share all of our FB posts to your FB groups. Please email if you would like to join the team to earn Crew hours to shop FIRST!
  
• HTML guru or web designer to alter our Joomla site - make it mobile-friendly, add rotating banners, etc for KE Crew status.
• A graphic designer who can make graphics.
• A programmer proficient in Perl
• Posters -  Do you work for a printer? We need 18x24 b&w or color posters for KE Crew status.
• Drone video after final drop-off as your KE Crew position.
• Large Bags: Register online once you have bags in hand! Stores have generously donated these to the sale in the past. The large bag is approximately 22X12X36. Please no grocery-sized bags! Toys 'R Us, Lowes, Home Improvement, Target, Dicks Sporting Goods, Staples, Joannes, Kohls, Office Max, and Bed Bath and Beyond are great places to ask for donations. Calling is ineffective. We recommend you go in and ask. You will receive 6 volunteer hours for bringing a box of 500 new bags to the sale at the drop-off day or shopping day. If you need a letter on our letterhead, you may print this one. These bags need to be thick. Someone ordered them from the internet for us in 8mil and they were WAY TOO THIN. Thanks for your help in obtaining the appropriate bags.
• Graphic design work on a Crew basis.
• A photographer to take pictures during our events, edit them as needed, and apply our presets to them.
• Media guru to post to homeschool and online groups for us. Email me a list of groups you could cover and I will send you a text to send.
• Window decals - If you work for a company and can make us window decals, we'll give you Crew status in trade.
• Meals: Do your friends and family consider you a great cook? We need GOOD HOME COOKIN' for 6 adults each day of the sale. We know it might sound absurd to ask for meals, but we are at the sale with our young kids for several weeks straight and cannot leave the checkout area during the sale. Pizza delivery gets old QUICK! Click on MEAL SIGNUP for more information on providing meals as Crew.
• Cooperative Advertising: If you have a website or publication and allow Kids EveryWear to place a banner ad on your site or print ad in your publication, we will allow you to place an ad on our site for free or will exchange for Crew hours.
• Access to Interstate Fence Line: If you own rural property on any of the major highways or interstates coming into the Triangle area and are willing to allow us to hang a light, all-weather corrugated sign on your fence line (they just zip-tie on) for a couple of months in the spring and the same in the fall, you'll earn four Crew hours per event.
• Organize a group of students/folks who might need community service hours to come and sort unsold clothing items on behalf of a 501c3 to earn hours toward KE Crew pre-sale privileges. The charity can sign any KE Crew paperwork for the service hours completed. The Crew hours on behalf of the 501c3 are NOT on behalf of Kids EveryWEAR. Therefore each individual will not earn shop early privileges with Kids EveryWEAR. But the person who coordinates a group of students to help can receive hours towards early shopping with Kids EveryWEAR for organizing the group. You would need to email for details about when the group could help. The date would be the day before Pickup.
• TV/Radio/magazine/newspaper coverage: Do you know someone who works in one of these? Get us in the news and you win big time!

Reschedule Boutique Bash Crew Slots

Need to reschedule your Crew slot?

• If it is more than one week before your Crew full-price shopping day, simply click on register and run back through the registration process. Deselect the slot(s) that you can no longer work and choose new slots.

• If it is less than one week before your Crew full-price shopping day, use Registration to change your slot to another time and forward your confirmation of this change with a note via email letting us know of the shift you must miss and the shift you have now registered for to replace it, keeping in mind the following Crew agreement (which you accepted during online registration):

In an effort to ensure the quality of the sale by retaining a sufficient number of Crew workers, Kids EveryWear will require that Crew fulfill their pledged obligation to work the shift(s) they have selected. Crew are expected to be on time and fulfill entire shift. If you cannot fulfill your shift, please register, uncheck that shift, and choose another. If it is one week or less prior to the Crew Shopping Day, please also forward the confirmation to us at  and notify us of the change. In the event that a Crew member does not fulfill her commitment or find a suitable replacement on her behalf, Kids EveryWear requests that you venmo kidseverywear $50 per missed shift if you can't reschedule to a makeup slot. We may deduct $50 for regular Crew, $100 for super Crew, or $150 for Super Duper Crew of the consignor earnings if you fail to do so. Preferably we ask that you switch to another slot and let us know! KE Crew who are not consignors and cannot make up a missed slot are asked to venmo kidseverywear or paypal $50 per missed slot to kidseverywear @ gmail . com (removing spaces) within 24 hours of missing their shift to pay for us to hire a replacement. Should a Crew member NOT additionally be participating as a consignor, that Crew may not be allowed to participate again in future Kids EveryWear Crew Preview Sales unless they make up their missed shift or send a gift card. Extreme extenuating circumstances will be considered (such as death in the family). Should extenuating circumstances prevent you from shopping at the Preview Sale, it would still be our hope that you would consider fulfilling your timeslot so as not to leave us short-staffed. If it is within one week of the approaching Crew shop date and you find yourself unable to fulfill your slot, we require switching to another slot or finding someone to fill your place. Please understand that these guidelines have been created in an effort to maintain a high-quality sale and a spirit of fairness to all who give sacrificially of their time.
