Nine Year Old Selects Store ProductsBy KOTV

If nine years old seems too young to be a buyer for a store, think again. What better way to attract young buyers to a gift shop than to have one of those young buyers select the gifts? News On 6 reporter Rick Wells reports that Nielson’s in the Plaza at 81st and Lewis has a special department called Faye’s Fun Finds. Faye is the buyer and she’s nine years old.

Nielsen’s features beautiful gifts with names like Waterford, Lalique Lladro and a special department in the back called Faye’s Fun Finds. Faye is a fourth grader.

The first thing Faye wanted to show Rick was a collection of nite lites. She likes the reindeer bubble lite best.

“She gravitates to things and says I think people would really like to buy this for their grandmother,” says Andrea Nielson Bartlett.
