Retail 101 recently visited at Jonathan Law and it was a rousing success.

The event was held the entire weekend of October 17-19 in the Law gym. Its purpose was to raise money for the junior class’ post-prom.

Hundreds of clothing items were brought to the school and sold at discount prices. Clothing items ranged from shoes, pants, sweaters, belts, and even hats. Brands available included American Eagle, New Balance, Nike and more.

“I had a great time,” senior volunteer Pat O’Brien said “It was nice to do something that helps the school while also having fun.”

The entire premise of Retail 101 is very simple: it saves people money. Everything is neatly organized and particular clothing items and brands being together.

“It was really easy to find what I was looking for, and I saved a lot more money than if I chose to go the mall instead,” senior Max Slusky said.

Teenagers are always in search of ways to save money on clothing, so Retail 101 was perfect because prices were incredibly low but were also high quality.

“I bought a pair of Vans for $30 that was originally $70 when I checked on their website,” senior Morgan Hennessey said.

Retail 101 provided a calm and helpful atmosphere for those looking to purchase clothing for themselves or for other people.

“I received great customer service, and it was an extremely easy process to get what I wanted,” senior Emily LaLuna said.

There were plenty of opportunities for those who attended to fill their closets with things they may need or even some fun accessories that aren’t worth paying full price for.

“I was able to buy an enormous amount of clothes, even some on the funnier side, while still saving money,” senior Sean Rice said.
