I Love Me a Good Yard Sale!

Doesn't everyone love a good yard sale? Well, maybe not EVERYONE since I think it takes a special person to want to get up at the crack of dawn with plenty of cash in hand and scour out the best deals on furniture, books, clothing, and whatever else! I do love a good yard sale, especially when our neighborhood hosts the community-wide sale twice a year. This reminds me that I need to call to book a space at the fall one which is coming up soon! I don't look forward to selling... so much work pricing, sorting, and then haggling with people who want to pay 10 cents for something rather than 25 cents. That part is not so fun.

Well, I found out about a cool site where you can sell things for free online! It's called Yardsellr and so far I'm loving it. They have "blocks" which are basically categories of items. Once you sign up for a free account, every time you log in to the site, you earn "photons" which end up being cash for you to use to purchase on the site. You can also earn these photons by making comments on items and referring friends. You set up your account to be linked to your Facebook and/or Twitter accounts as well. That way, you can share items you "love" and those you are trying to sell on your news feed/profile. It's a neat idea, so I've already listed a few things. No sales yet, but just by browsing, commenting, and logging in, I've earned enough to buy a used Vera Bradley bag. Can't wait for it to arrive!

Take a look at Yardsellr today and happy shopping/selling!
