Clean out your closets and have a yard sale, take your goods to a consignment store or sell them online. If you can’t find a buyer for your unneeded goods, at least you can donate them to a local charity like the Salvation Army or Goodwill. Then you aren’t cluttering up you house with stuff you don’t use, you might be helping out someone else who needs what you are not using, and depending on your income, you may be able to take a tax deduction.

Go to other people’s garage sales, look for bargains and the resell items online at sites like ebay. It helps to specialize in one area so you get to know the market very well and get a good feel for what will sell online and for how much.

In the market for some new reading material? Check out library book sales, especially on the last day when they are trying to get rid of the books. Then you can resell the books online through Amazon Marketplace or Ebay. You can get an edge by becoming a library member, or better yet a volunteer, and possibly getting a chance to purchase books before they go on sale to the public.
