Meadowbridge Community Market is moving to an appointment system!
We will no longer be giving out tickets or symbols the day of shopping, and in order to shop you’ll have to make an appointment beforehand. Walk-ups will not be able to shop, but if you have an appointment you’ll be guaranteed a time to shop.
We are making this shift so that shoppers don’t have to wait outside for as long, and so that you’ll know for sure whether you can shop rather than hoping we’ll still have tickets left when you arrive!
Please fill out the form below to make an appointment. You can also read additional info about the new system if you scroll down past the form. If you are having trouble veiwing the form below, you can try this link.
Appointments must be made in advance the week before your shop. The form to book an appointment will open at 9AM each Friday for the following Saturday, or 8 days before the Saturday you’re scheduling to shop. For example, appointments for Saturday, June 13, will open on Friday, June 5. It will close when all the slots are taken or at 12pm the Thursday before the shopping day.
You will receive a confirmation text the week of your scheduled shop and a reminder text the morning of. If you provided an email, you will receive an email instead. Please bring the ticket number from that confirmation message with you when you come to shop.
If you need help with the form, we’ll have volunteers at the free store on Fridays from 10am to 2pm and Saturdays from 7am to 12pm who will be able to help sign you up for an appointment the following week if the form is not full yet. You can also text (804) 404-2346 for assistance.
If you won’t be able to make it to an appointment you made, please cancel it by responding to the confirmation message you received from us so that someone else can shop during that time instead!
This is a big shift for us and it will take us a little while to fine-tune, so we ask for a little extra grace as we implement it - and we welcome your feedback on what would improve it!
