(This is not a postmark deadline.)
SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:
Fill out application entirely (front and back) by typing or printing clearly.
You must offer a minimum discount of 30% off one of your primary
products/services, and it must be for a single item, not a combo. (This
requirement accommodates customers wishing to purchase only one item.)
You may include an “OR” option, but this must be in addition to the single
primary product/service offer of a minimum 30% discount.
“Buy one, get one free” offers cannot be your primary offer; they must be the
“OR” option in addition to the single primary product/service offer of a minimum
30% discount.
Offers must be for products/services you are currently licensed to sell at the fair.
Discounts must be valid all 12 days of the fair. (Aug. 26-Sept.6)
If you intend to offer more than one promotion, the Blue Ribbon Bargain Book
deal must be your best offer and different from any other offer or promotion
approved by the fair (e.g., special day promotions such as Kids Day,
Seniors Day, and Military Appreciation Day in the Deals, Drawings and
Giveaways Guide).
Please note: The BRBB is your only opportunity to offer a coupon for products
sold at your booth. Your vendor license prohibits any use of other paper,
electronic or social media coupons/deals.
