I Made About $17.00...Just By Sittig At Home, Idle.

Hello friend, It is a very good news. I am very happy for you friend. Have a nice day.

How did you sell them? Did someone come to your home? Someone you deal with on a regular basis? It's a good way to clean a rented room!

Hiya rekh., Not bad at all eh? Making 17 dollars nothing to sniff at they always come in handy those small amounts too. Did you spend it on yourself or on everyone else too say like a small treat or something like that? They don´t have anything like that here but I wish to heck they did. Not even bothered to collect Bottles either but I put them all in the Recycle Bin we have here and the newspapers and cardboard and paper. I don´t get paid but the satisfaction of putting them in the right places is enough for me.

Awesome, not only did you earn a little extra income you also got to help the environment by recycling. We have a recycling trash bin in our place we just dump everything into and people come past and take what they want%c/bottle adds up).

You have done a great job. I think all of us do the same thing which you have done.

Why is this new to you. Its obvious the old newspapers and bottles are recycled. What did you do with them earlier. But its really not that much. You have to accumulate lots of old newspapers to get something decent out of them.

My daughter do the same thing once in a while. But sometimes we just separate it from the trash so that the clean up boys can have it for their own, so they can sell the same and have a small amount for their use. Basically junk shop business is the most bankable now in our place.

Just like you, I sell my old newspapers, empty bottles and other junks to a junk shop. It's a good way to de-clutter your house and at the same time turn them into cash.

my family always saved cans and sold them pop cans and tey would get alot for them. so about a month ago i tryed to save can as we go thur alot and i did for like a week and i found it it was not for us because we do not have the room.. i have no gargage or shed we have a small space for our mower , so i cant use that. and i set the cans outside of the house on the drive way against th house and it made it loook so junky hubby ask me to stop and i did.. an ddont intend to do it again he was afraid it would cause ants as well.. as for news papers we dont have any , w never buy the paper.. but im glad it worked for you,,, enjoy your money

Hi, Rekhum, this reminds me about a very happy period in my life. We were young, me and my husbands, we had a lot of guests every day and everybody was drinking. We used to collect piles of empty bottles and when we were short of money we were selling them. Now there is no time to drink so much, most people have a lot of responsibilities. And the prices of the bottles are not so advantageous :))

Dear rekhum You did not specify how you sold your old mews paper. Is it off Or online? My recent sales of old newspaper was sold to a lorry buyer at 25 Malaysian cents.per kilo. It's just pocket money. May I know what is the rate you are selling? Thanks. Love. Bro. Joe. GBU.

We put ours out in the front of the house on the days they come to pick them all up, but we don't get paid for it all, unfortunately. All the houses here do that, it is set up that way in the neighborhoods. I wish we could get paid for all of it, but we don't have someone will pay for it.

i generally give it away to my maid for her benefit and she feels happy about it....if i would not give it her then probably i would find a shop to sell it off and earn some quick buck... $17 is a good amount. i think you saved them for a while...:)

I didn't know you could earn money for selling old newspapers! I know you can obviously get recycle money for your bottles and cans. I always do this because it is like getting a reimbursment for the money you already spent on the drink.

I think that things like this are excellent ways to make money because it means that you are doing good by the planet at the same time which always has to be a good thing. We have a system like that in my country as well, and I often go outside and ask my neighbours if they have anything that they would like to be recycled. Because they give it to me, it means that they don't have to go to the effort of getting rid of the rubbish, and it means that I get a little bit of money for it at the same time which is great as it doesn't take me much effort to take the rubbish to the recycling plant.

Wow! that's great! I bet you have dozens or thousands of newspapers and bottles stuck in there so you have gained much amount huh? Good for you. Well, i do that also. I separate those cans, plastic bottles, newspapers and other papers or things that can be recycled and sell it to those who just pass by our street to collect those...it's good to segregate them and separate in garbage for it can help our mother earth as well..

Hey a little extra money is a good thing. Most folks don't pay attention to the fact that you can be paid for plastic, glass or aluminum containers. I wish I knew where I could turn my stuff in. I'd like a little extra cash too lmao

By selling used papers including newspapers and empty bottles I get some amount monthly. There are persons engaged in buying these items and they come home and collect it. So a part of cleaning is done by them and I get not a negligible amount.

Hello friend, oh! It is a great idea to earn money. I also sold them. But never got $17. Thank you for shairing with us this great idea. Nice to meet you. have a nice day.

Well I do the same thing, I sell old stuff like what you said and also sometimes garge sell helps a lot. I have a ton of useless stuff (useless for me so to speak :P) which i get rid of in a garage sell and gets me a good amout of money.
