I don’t know about you, but when I see clutter it stresses me out. Since I purged our home last year I do feel more relaxed. The added perk to purging is it can generate some extra money.
I’ve been asked by a few people how to sell things online without getting overwhelmed. I am going to break it into a few steps to help you out.
I start with an empty milk crate, any small box will do. Just make sure it is a manageable size.
I carry it with me from room to room and scan if there is something that has been just sitting in a random spot for a hike without a real place of belonging and put it in the crate. I’ve cut back on the amount of Knick knacks and a few end up in the crate from time to time.
In my room when I’m frantically trying on clothes if something doesn’t fit I throw them off to the side. Those items get collected for the milk crate.
Pick up a box and take a walk through your house and see what you no longer need and throw it in the milk crate.
The next post will tell you what I do next to turn my clutter into cash. Christmas credit card bills are soon going to be mailed out, or the cold has you dreaming of money for a little get away, this will help you.
It pays to be frugal.
