Airis6962 has brought an idea to me for the challenge, she wants to do a twist of sorts for the upcoming seasons! So here it is!
A seasonal twist! (Optional)
October = Spooky Week
Starting 10 days before Spook Week which is October 31! Decor your store in spooky items and sale items that have something to do with spooky stuff! Spook Week per say, bake spooky cookies, sale garlic breads, draw/or sale spooky paintings, sale spook day toys, and such! The markups will stay the same as they are now for the challenge! Just follow the original markup!
November = Giving Week
Starting 10 days before Giving Week this year is November 24! Decor your store with items the pertain to the Thanksgiving season and sale items that have something to do with the season! Per say, bake cakes that have fruits in them or vegetables, Paint painting of outdoor crops and such, sale in toy store toys that pertain to Giving Week! In the nursery store for plants an each of the other stores, sale items that have the seasonal colours in them such as Red, Orange, Yellow, and decor your store the same! The markups will stay the same as the original challenge!
December = Gift Week
Starting 10 days before Gift Day will be December 25! So decor your store for the Gift Week season and sale items that pertain to the season for this month, such as Christmas cookies, paintings of cider trees and outdoors, sale Christmas trees and sale Christmas toys and such! The markups for this season will be the same as the original challenge!
January = Great Sale Week
Starting on January 1, you will not need to decor your store in any special way, During the whole 10 days you will need to sale your original items with only 5% markups for each of the days, on January 11 your marks up will go back to being the same as the original challenge!
February = Love Week!
Starting 10 days before Love Day which is February 14 you need to decor your store for the season and only sell items that pertain to Love Day, such as heart-shaped cookies, paint pictures of sims in love or hearts or roses, sale nursery items such as rose vase and such, and sell toys such as teddy bears with hearts an so on! The markup for Love Day will stay the same as it is for the original challenge!
March = Easter Week
Starting 10 days before April 1, So decor your store for the Easter Week season and sale items that pertain to the season for this month, such as easter bunnys, eggs, and such! The markup will stay the same for Easter Week as the original challenge!
Note keep in your budget as best as you can and remember you can sale any kind of items that comes from your store lot!
Also, Note these items will replace the item placeholders you already have! So if you are already selling 10 items then place the 10 new items! If you are selling 8 items then place the 8 new items and so on! You can't sale both your items, the old and the new, this is why you will be placing the new items for the placeholders you already have!
If you have questions on what kind of items you can sale for the days I will try to give as many pointers as I can! I'm sure all our wonderful players now will also help out with ideas!
Now if you are new to The Retail Challenge you can make your store starting with this twist and for the ones already doing the challenge, If you had rather just make a new store for each season please fill free to do that! Just keep in mind you have to keep it in the 17,000 price range, and don't forget to use the #tags for the challenge!
#StarterRetailChallenge, #GetToWork, #TheSims4
and please if you don't get to do each challenge for the whole 10 days because of Real Life its okay! I know we all get busy these times of year!
