The annual Tent sale for all things FiestaWare and Homer Laughlin will be held June 25th, 26th, an 27th this summer. I came across the list of “Rules” for the sale. It is most likely the same for all of the warehouse/tent sales. If you are planning on attending, you may want to review them before you go. In addition to these, there are no oversized dollies or carts allowed in the tent. I assume that is just for the courtesy of the personal space of others.

Are you planning to go this year? At this sale, it will be the first time Ivory will be offered as “seconds,” so take advantage of the opportunity to pick up a few spare plates. “Seconds” might have an air bubble or another slight imperfection which prevented it from being shipped to stores as “perfect,” but they would still be able to handle the heavy workload that your dinner guests put them under. To most people, it the imperfections are not obvious.
