Any items purchased at Affordables Apparel will receive complimentary gift wrapping and outside store items will be wrapped where the proceeds will benefit the featured charity of the weekend. Small boxes are $5.00, medium boxes are $8.00 and large boxes are $10.00. Customers may choose from a wide arrangement of wrapping paper, tissue paper, ribbons and bows.

“Last year I couldn’t find a place that would wrap all of my Christmas presents, no matter where I purchased them. So I decided to make one of our stores a place where everyone can get their presents wrapped, and for a great cause too!” said President of Affordables Apparel Zack Kelly. “You are not just getting bows on boxes at Affordables Apparel; you’re donating to the worthwhile charities in the Charleston area.”
