I always think about it a little before I go to sell something, but then again I always go to a public meeting place, like inside a mall or once in a walmart parking lot. I suppose it would be different with a large object, I've only sold two cellphones an an MP3 player, all of which are pretty pocketable things, so I'm sure it would be different if you were selling a cabinet or something bigger. But good luck, I love your blog! My Fiancee and I have started reading up on the drugstore ads since discovering your site. I was quite hacked to learn that I had $11.80 in CVS bucks that went to waste at the end of the year that I didn't even know about. I had previously thought that the CVS card was simply a tracking program that enabled them to sell some stuff at a deeper discount (I signed up when they were offering a 2 for 1 on AA batteries a few months ago). take care -Benjamin your absolutely right about craigslist.

Best of luck... and if you can make extra $$, it'll be awesome! Yeah, decluttering is on my list of things to do too for 2008…. it’s a common “problem” I see many of us have…

The really scary thing was that after I got rid of 75-80% of my "stuff", I found I didn't miss it at all. Yes, I'll need some furniture again when I get my own apartment, but I will never have closets, cabinets and shelves stuffed with stuff I didn't use or because they were so stuffed--I didn't even know what I owned.

I brought a lot of stuff home from our trip to the mainland, and K is a little worried about storing it here. I may have to do a purge myself. It seems like that's what life is like after you move out of your parents' house for good -- downsizing becomes at least an annual activity. Good for you!

I've been doing the same thing. I use Craigslist for anything that would be expensive or awkward to ship. I use ebay for little things, to protect my anonymity. What I can't sell I am giving to Goodwill. I was thinking about doing giveaways on my blog, which I'd love to do, but I don't want to lose money on shipping. So I'll just donate it to Goodwill instead. Hehe you sound like me! I’ve been doing the same thing. I use Craigslist for anything that would be expensive or awkward to ship.

Maybe I should give it another look though. Thanks for coming by! I thought about craigslist, but to be honest I’m kind of scared of meeting creepos from it.
