A new way to shop

Tom Algie is a shopkeeper from Settle, North Yorkshire. He runs a small hardware store called Practically Everything. 0  G  Tom recently tried out something very different in his shop.

Last year, Tom faced a problem when it came to the Christmas holidays. He wanted to give himself and his three staff time off to enjoy the holidays. 1      What if one of them urgently needed to buy something when the shop was closed?

It didn’t take him long to come up with a solution that would suit everyone. He decided to leave the shop open and use an honesty box. He left a note telling shoppers who came into the shop on 26th December to serve themselves. 2      Amazingly, his plan worked. The honesty box, which Tom called his ‘newest member of staff’, was made out of a funnel and a plastic cereal box. He put it behind the counter with a note saying: ‘Yes, I have given everyone the day off, including me, so please choose the items you want and place the money inside. Merry Christmas!’

When Tom returned to the shop at 4.15 p.m. to close up, he could only see £5.00 in the box and was a little disappointed. However, he soon realized that the long tube of the funnel was full of money. 3      He was both surprised and delighted to find that the shop had made £187.66.

The customers left notes telling Tom which goods they had bought. The largest amount was £17.00 for a three-step ladder. When he checked the stock in his shop, Tom found out that they had indeed been telling the truth. 4      One said: ‘Thanks Tom. This is why we moved to Settle. Anywhere else, this shop would have been emptied in two minutes.’ Another read: ‘I’ve just moved back here from a big city. I forgot just how lovely Settle is. This has made my day.’

Tom believes he did not lose any money by using this system. In fact, the opposite is probably true. He explained that people seem to have put a little extra in the box if they did not have the right change. This makes sense because there is an ATM very close to the shop and people almost certainly went there to withdraw some cash. 5      Tom later said: ‘I didn’t think twice about leaving the shop open. Settle is a lovely, quiet, rural town and there’s never any trouble here. I put my faith in my customers and I wasn’t disappointed.’
