ST. JOHN’S OP SHOP is not open daily, but rather holds big sales two Saturday mornings a month.  The Op Shop is grateful for donations of goods from parishoners and the public.  Donations may be left on the donations table just outside the Op Shop; the table is cleared several times during the day.  If you wish to put donations directly in the hands of the Op Shop crew, or want to chat with them about what items they do and do not take, you might wish to come when they are there.  The Op Shop crew gathers to sort and price two mornings a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and get ready for sales.  These are not shopping days for the public.  The two days ahead of sales they do not wish to receive donations – and the “No More Donations Until After The Saturday Sale” sign goes up.  At those times, hold your donations, please.   

OP SHOP SALE DAYS FOR 2026 – 10 January … 31 January … 14 February … 28 February … 14 March … 28 March … 11 April … only one sale in April … 9 May … 23 May … 13 June … 27 June … 11 July … 25 July … 8 August … 22 August … 12 September … 26 September … 10 October … 24 October … 14 November … 28 November … 12 December … only one sale in December.

Besides bargains on the ordinary and the unusual, on sale days Devonshire tea is served in the Crypt.  The cake stand offers several choices for that evening’s after-dinner dessert.

Sometimes there is a sale-within-a-sale, featuring cameras, Pyrex or video games.  There were two mid-year “Halfway To Christmas” sales which were not only fun, but moved much Christmas decor we really did not have room to store all year.  The 22 August sale-within-a-sale will feature cameras; camera sales begin at 10:00AM.
