The checkout area is one of the busiest and most important of your Book Fair. Use the display tips below for the school tools and poster program for ease of customer shopping.

POSTERSKeep the poster box behind your cashier table to avoid poster damage. Hang one of each poster on a wall or on a clothes line near your cashier table. Number each poster with a sticky note; students can then purchase by number. Display the Poster Price sign nearby. These display posters are yours to keep after the Fair.

TOOLS FOR SCHOOLRefer to the school tools price list to find the price for each item. Keep these items on or near the cashier table for last-minute purchases.
