Simply Thrifty Round Up - Sell Your Used Stuff
In an interview the other day, Karen from MyBargainBuddy.com said that the best way she found for making a bit of extra money quick was to hold a yard sale. So, I thought we could benefit from a good list of yard sale and consignment related links.
- Craigslist - This site is a great place to sell large items, but it is also an excellent way to advertise your yard sale absolutely free. The key to success with this seems to be posting your yard sale add the day before so that it isn’t pushed off the page by other ad posts.
- The Yard Sale Queen has a very thorough tip list for having a successful yard sale.
- Yard Sale Search is a good resource for listing (or looking for) yard sales.
- Yard Hopper also lets you list and find sales, but what I like most is their feature to help you easily make signs for your yard sale.
- eBay is still a smart choice for unique or high ticket items.
I noticed a lot of online consignment shops, but I don’t have personal experience with any of them, so didn’t want to list them as resources. Have any of you ever used an online consignment shop or do you stick to local stores?

There’s also a site called Kijiji, which is pretty similar to Craigslist.
