Make Extra Money Selling Your Extra Stuff
The economy’s tanking, cash is tight at home, and there are seemingly few ways to quickly make a little extra money.
But selling household goods — dare we say, junk — is a proven way, and spring cleaning can provide the perfect impetus.
Options abound, from hawking items at pawn shops (where business is booming) to selling items online to hosting the old standby, the garage sale.
“The wintertime is a perfect time to perfect your nest and move out the things that you no longer need or want,” says author and garage sale enthusiast Bruce Littlefield. “In this economy, we quickly realize our excesses and are willing to let go of them if we can make a few bucks in the process.”
The few bucks add up: Garage sales are a $3 billion industry, says Littlefield, author of Garage Sale America.

I think it is always a great idea to hold a garage sale every year or even every other year. you never realize how much stuff/junk accumulates over just one year until you drag it all out and put it in one spot.
