Weekly Challenge – Clean Out and Make Money!
This week commit to clean out one room, one closet, one bookshelf or one cabinet each week…mark it on your calendar, delegate & get started! Your “plan” will be done in one day, and the project will be broken up into “bite size” pieces, so you'll avoid feeling overwhelmed.
Just think how good it will feel to be organized and have a little extra cash!
A few more tips to manage the mess…
Piles are good! Always make three piles:
- Trash / Recycle
- Donate
- Sell
Places to sell your stuff:
- Garage Sale
- EBay – Watch these short videos to learn to sell on Ebay OR if Ebay sounds like too much work, you can use a service like Ebay Valet. Ebay Valet does the work for you, but of course they do take a percentage of the profit.
- Half Price Books (great for books, magazines, games, dvd's)
- Play It Again Sports (for sports equipment)
- Consignment Shop
- Craigslist.com
Get the entire family involved and use the money you make to take a family vacation, or let each child keep a portion of the money.
Now…grab your calendar, make a plan & go make some money!
