A sales stall is basically any stall that sells goods under KHM.
Sales stalls pay 10% commission on sales over 4,000DKK. This means that if you sell for 5,000 DKK, the calculation looks like this.
5,000 – 4,000 = 1,000
1,000 * 0.1 = 100
This means that you must pay 100DKK at the office in the volunteer camp before you leave KHM.

A group can be one or more people who attend KHM for the atmosphere, or to participate in shows/matches.
As a rule, no sales are allowed here.
