Helping out Disney-winkel.nl ;)
Dear reader,
As
promised a short report on my adventures at the huishoudbeurs (householdfair)
where I helped the store www.disney-winkel.nl. They own a webshop, but also have
stores in Scheveningen (The Hague) and Helmond. I have been to both stores a
number of times and it is well worth a visit.
I
was delighted when they asked me if I wanted to help out at the huishoudbeurs.
Initially I was supposed to work the entire weekend (Saturday and Sunday), but
as my best friend also really wanted to help out, I allowed her to take over
the Sunday.
The
stand was marked by an aura of absolute cuteness and awesomeness (well at least that’s how it
struck me as a Disney addict :P haha). They sold toys, plushies, bags, but also
other merchandise such as Christmas ornaments, things for in and around the
house etc. etc. I was quite surprised by the wide collection they had managed
to bring with them.
The
entire day I spent handing out flyers to passersby, which was a lot more fun
than I had actually expected. As I am quite a shy person I thought I would be
having problems approaching people, but overall it went quite well. The stand
seemed to be quite a success as we were quite busy even though we were a little
tucked away. I don’t think they actually believed that it would be such a
success themselves. They even managed to sell quite a few of the more expensive
statues (which I was surprised about as well!).
We
also had to perform some dance moves to attract attention whenever Pluto was
present at the stand. People could take a picture with him for free and then
donate any amount of money they saw fit to a good cause, namely the Emma
Children’s Hospital. So I did not really mind making a bit of a fool out of myself
for such a good cause. I really hope they have managed to collect a lot of
money.
The
stand will be there until coming Sunday (the 26 of February), so if you are a
Dutchy, love Disney and have some spare time on your hands, why not pay it a
visit? ^^ If you don’t have the time to go, but are a Disney fan, I highly
recommend paying their webshop a visit (www.disney-winkel.nl). The variety of
Disney merchandise is far greater than the official Disney site! ;).
Love,
Blacky
