The second-hand store will temporarily be opened for two weeks and new clothing will continuously be added in. Asked why they decided to donate to the food bank? Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) expressed they collaborated with the food bank before and knows the purpose is to distribute food items to people in need. It can really help families in poverty. As for Gillian Chung (Ah Gil), she said because there are many people out there that need food.
The store is nearly 1,000 square feet, Twins expressed the shopping center gave them a friendly rental price. Their mothers and friends will be helping out in the store, and will only get a small pay. In order to open this second-hand clothing store, Twins spent several days preparing, Ah Sa said: "I was really exhausted from picking out the clothes, just getting the T-shirts took me 2-3 days." Ah Gil expressed she especially went to the warehouse to put the clothing in order.
Aside from all that, Twins also did the price tagging themselves. The duo expressed it took them all night and into the morning to mark the prices. Also, a lot of their clothing/shoes/accessories are still very new, Ah Gil said: "Many of the shoes still have the price tag on them, purchased it for HK$5,000, but now we're selling it for a discount." While picking out clothing, Twins realized something: "After doing this, we believed we shouldn't be selling so many things. We learned to only sell the things that are needed, but now it's doing better than before.
