$$ Prom, Homecoming, Twirp, Winter/Spring Formals...

Do you have a dress or two or wayyy too many just stashed in your closet? Or one you just wore to Homecoming this fall? What are you going to do with all those dresses? They could be a good decoration, or closet fillers. You could...what could you do with them??

Well.. I have the perfect answer!

etc. stores, inc. is now taking your Prom, Homecoming, Twirp and Formal dresses on Consignment. What's consignment mean? It means you get to put your dresses in our store, we sell them and YOU get money for them! Beats letting them just sit in your closet.

It works like this - bring in your dress(es) already cleaned - no appointment needed.  ((There's actually a Cleaners right in our strip mall, and I hear they have GREAT PRICES: Star Cleaners. $5-$10 depending on the intricacies of the dress)) When the dress sells, you get 60% of the selling price. (if your dress does not sell after a specified time period, you may lower the price or pick your dress up).

So basically, you can make money from the dresses you've worn, and you can buy someone else's dress for a much cheaper price! ALSO!!!  Madeline Woods Chicago by Madeline Woods of Frankfort, IL will custom make your purse/clutch for your next dance. She'll even match her swatches to your dress! So come on in, check us out on facebook,
our website, call us at 815-469-7225 or email us at etcstoresinc@gmail.com.

We'll start taking dresses on January 1, 2011. :)

NEW VENDOR: Green Envee Organics

Just wanted to let you all know that we have a new vendor at etc. It's "Green Envee Organics." They use all natural, organic ingredients. They use essential oils instead of frangrances/synthetic preservatives; also, there are no parabens! It's been proven to help children and adults with eczema, and works great for people who normally break out from lotions, soaps, etc.

I really recommend trying these products! We love them! We've had great feedback so far, and it hasn't even been in the store a full week! They offer: Lotion, Bar Soap, Body Wash, Body Scrub, Lip Balm, A Children's Line and Gift Sets. (There really is something for everyone!)

The Sri Lankan Lemongrass smells like Lemonheads to me...who wouldn't want to smell so good? And the lemongrass is really imported from Sri Lanka!

They have 9 scents!!!! What? Yes, I said 9. (one is actually "unscented"). I'll give you the list of scents, but seriously, you should come check them out and test them for yourselves!
  • Brazillian Orange and Litsea
  • Egyptian Myrrh and Sandalwood
  • French Lavender and Chamomile
  • Indonesian Patchouli and Orange
  • Natures Care with Shea
  • Sri Lankan Lemongrass
  • Tunisian Rosemary and Peppermint
  • West African Shea and Calendula (Children's)
So I hope you come check it out! Please visit http://www.greenenvee.com/ to learn more about the product and their mission!
