It seems like the whole world is talking about tidying up right now. With the popularity of the Netflix show and the staying power of the ever-lasting side hustle, I think we just found a new winner! Why not simplify your life, de-clutter your home and make some money in the meantime?
Imagine that, cleaning your house, boosting your mental health and fattening your wallet all at the same time. 3 great things and it won’t take long to do it! Just spend time clearing out your space of the things that no longer spark joy for you and you will have your stuff ready to sell! You will be amazed at how much stuff you will find.
Here is how you can tidy up and build your savings:
- Sell your clothes and shoes – Use Poshmark, FB Marketplace, Ebay, Mercari and other apps to post your high-quality clothes that are in good condition. I sell on Poshmark all the time and love it! It’s so easy.
- Sell your electronics – I always find that Ebay, OfferUp and FB Marketplace are good places to sell used electronics.
- Sell your housewares – If you are anything like me, you have lots of extra kitchen stuff, wall decor, bedding, curtains, etc., that you no longer use. You can easily sell this stuff to someone looking to switch up the decor in their home.
If you have followed Dave Ramsey at all, you have probably heard how much he talks about selling everything that isn’t nailed down to pay off debts and build your emergency fund. Tidying up is a great excuse to get your butt moving and get to building that emergency fund or, move past your emergency fund and get to paying those bills off! Which will you be working on?
Good luck tidying, my friends. You’ve got this!
