 Starting next week (March 22nd), we will go back to our former schedule and reopen on Mondays. We will also extend our Monday-Saturday hours to 6PM instead of 5PM. Therefore, our hours will once again be as follows: Monday - Saturday: 10AM - 6PM Sunday: 12PM - 5PM As a reminder, our consigning hours are: Wednesday - Saturday: 11AM - 5PM Sunday: 1PM - 4PM A big thank you for all of your continued support during COVID. It has been a challenging time for everyone, including small businesses. Your thoughtfulness and generosity have really helped us weather the storm. We look forward to seeing you again in person!  For the first two weeks of March (3/2 - 3/14), all items older than one month will be 50% OFF!
We will not be accepting consignments during the sale. We will resume our regular consigning hours on Wednesday, March 17th.

2. DROP OFF & DONATE DISCARDS: You may drop off up to 15 items during our consigning hours without an appointment. We will look through your items at a later date and donate any items we cannot put out for sale.

Monday: CLOSED Tuesday – Saturday: 10AM-5PM Sunday: 12PM-5PM This will not affect consignments or consigning hours. We apologize for any inconvenience; we're trying to take steps that will allow us to remain open, but business continues to be a losing proposition. Winter is typically a slow time of year, and the combination of winter and COVID is proving to be especially challenging! As always, we'll keep you posted with updates as we move forward. Warm regards, The Crew at Dirt Chic  For the first week of December (12/1 - 12/7), all items older than one month will be 50% OFF!

2. DROP OFF & DONATE DISCARDS: You may drop off up to 15 items during our consigning hours without an appointment. We will look through your items at a later date and donate any items we cannot put out for sale. Consigning Hours: Wed - Sat: 11-5 & Sun: 1-4 We're getting ready for our annual Coats & Coffee event (in November) and we're reaching out to you for donations. Coats & Coffee is an event which aims to get coats and other winter clothing to low-income folks in our area. We set up a shopping-like environment for hundreds of community members, who are able to select winter gear for themselves at no cost. This year the event will be modified due to Covid-19, with extra safety precautions in place for guests and volunteers. We expect to see just as many attendees, however-- perhaps more, as this year has been especially hard on everyone.
If you have items you would like to donate to the event, please bring them in to Dirt Chic (67 Main Street, Burlington) anytime through Saturday, November 14th. We are looking for winter coats, boots, hats, and gloves for men, women, and children. We are especially in need of extra large sizes. As a token of our appreciation, we'll be giving out Dirt Chic coupons to anyone who donates! Thank you for your support! Be warm and well, ~The Crew at Dirt Chic  For the first two weeks of September (9/1 - 9/14), all items older than one month will be 50% OFF!

2. DROP OFF & DONATE DISCARDS: You may drop off up to 15 items during our consigning hours without an appointment. We will look through your items at a later date and donate any items we cannot put out for sale. Consigning Hours: Wed - Sat: 11-5 & Sun: 1-4  Since we missed our annual week-long June half price sale, we have decided to hold one in July!
For the first week of July (7/1-7/7), all items older than one month will be 50% OFF! During this particular sale, we *will be* accepting consignments. Please be aware of our consignment procedures:
1.APPOINTMENT: We will look through your items during your appointment and return any items we cannot accept for sale (up to 15 adult items and/or 25 children's items). You can make an appointment here, but feel free to call us if you're having any trouble. 2. DROP OFF & DONATE DISCARDS: You may drop off up to 15 items during our consigning hours without an appointment. We will look through your items at a later time and donate any items we cannot put out for sale. Consigning Hours: Wed - Sat: 11-5 & Sun: 1-4 Dear Consignors, Well, it looks like we're ready to take the next step! After two weeks of offering shopping-by-appointment, we're going to be opening the doors for real next week. Starting Monday, June 8, Dirt Chic will be open again for business. We will return to our schedule of Monday – Saturday 10AM-6PM and Sunday 12PM-5PM. And we will resume taking consignments; the process, however, will look a little different. APPOINTMENTS Consigning by appointment will be much the same. If you have a scheduled appointment, we will look through your items on the spot and enter them into your account. You can bring your bag to the consigning area TO THE LEFT of the counter, which we will sanitize before and after we sort through your clothes (wearing gloves). We will give the items three days to air out before putting them out on the floor. Appointments are available on the hour, Wednesday through Saturday, 11AM to 4PM and Sunday, 1PM to 3PM. You can schedule those on our website: www.dirtchicvt.com. DROP-AND-GO You can still drop off UP TO 15 ITEMS without an appointment, also during our consigning hours of Wednesday - Saturday, 11AM to 4PM and Sunday, 1PM to 3PM. We will have a separate area set up for this TO THE RIGHT of the counter, where you can fill out a tag with your name and the date and place your items in a reusable bag (that we provide) with your name tag taped to it. We will put these items in a separate area for at least three days and go through them after that. PLEASE DO NOT BRING IN MORE THAN 15 ITEMS. If you do, we will only take the top 15 items from your bag and put them on your account. Please do not bring in a batch of items that cannot easily fit into a reusable grocery bag. We have very limited space for storage, especially as we work to turn a new area of the store into a bridal section. SMALL BATCH WALK-IN At the moment, we will not be offering our walk-in consignment option of 5 or fewer items. We are not in a position to comfortably follow health and safety guidelines without limiting the number of daily consignments that we are expected to sort through. We plan to offer this option again in the future, once the scare of COVID-19 is more securely in our rear-view mirror. SHOPPING We encourage you to come in and do it! We will be wearing face masks and following health and safety guidelines, and ask you to do the same. We hope to see our business return to what it once was, which will allow us to get back on our pre-quarantine feet! Thank you for all of your patience, understanding, and support during this time. We are excited to re-enter the retail world and see your faces again! All the best, The Crew from Dirt Chic  Dear Dirt Chic Customers and Consignors,
We wanted to reach out during this challenging time to both offer and ask for support. We know many of you are juggling a variety of challenges as you try and make the best decisions for yourselves, your families, and your communities. We, too, are facing many tough decisions and judgment calls. We have decided to remain open for the time being. We have hand sanitizer available at the front counter and a public restroom at the back of the store for hand-washing. We are cutting back on staffing to reduce the number of bodies at the store and allow employees extra opportunities to stay home. And we will be limiting consignments; we will continue to honor appointments, but we are suspending the walk-in option for the moment. We know this will be an inconvenience for consignors who are hoping to unload their extra clothes, but given the warnings about minimizing social contact – as well as our reduced staffing – we need to make this temporary change. We will be increasing our online activity, to allow customers to see some of the inventory from afar. We’re happy to ring through sales over the phone and hold onto the purchased items until you’re able to come in and grab them. We can also run them out to your car if that’s your preference. Feel free to call or e-mail us if there are specific items you’d like us to find for you. We can always send you pictures so you can shop remotely. And stay tuned to our Instagram and Facebook pages to see what’s “in store!” With schools and some businesses closing, we know many of you will be operating out of your homes, perhaps with extra challenges. We’re here to offer up some retail therapy! Just let us know how we can help. As a local business, we will try to weather this pandemic as best we can, knowing we will take a hit financially and in many ways we can’t yet predict. Please consider this as you move forward with your own plans – we hope to continue doing business with you in any way we can and emerge from this in one piece! Thank you so much for your continued support and patronage. Sincerely, The Crew at Dirt Chic  For the first two weeks of March (3/1-3/14), all items older than one month will be 50% OFF!
We will not be accepting consignments during the sale. We will resume our regular consigning hours on Sunday, 3/15. Please be aware of our consignment procedures:
2. SMALL BATCH WALK-IN: We will accept walk-ins for consignments of 5 or fewer items. 3. DROP OFF & DONATE DISCARDS: You may drop off up to 15 adult and/or 25 children's items during our consigning hours without an appointment. We will look through your items at a later date and donate any items we cannot put out for sale. Consigning Hours: Wed - Sat: 11-5 & Sun: 1-4 |
