Spring cleaning, but in the fall.

I know it's not the right time of year to be doing spring cleaning, but seriously, who cares right? I've got a lot to sell, so I posted a ton of things up online, complete with photos and prices. We just had a couple come by to look at the Christmas tree we're selling, but to them, it was just too small. They want something like the one we just picked up. I know I should just give things away for free, but when I need the money, I have to sell this stuff. Not setting unreasonable prices, and providing major details for each item, I would hope that they would sell. I tried previously to sell these items, but for some people, it was just too far away. So I put a location in my ads, hopefully that helps more. Sigh. We have so much in our place that we need to get rid of as it's taking up so much space, but we haven't been very lucky lately with this sort of thing. Hopefully this time though, we'll have everything sold by the end of the month.

Keep trying. What about having a yard/garage sale? Is it now winter where you live? Do you have a Kijiji or Craigslist in your area? I am with you, we all gather up too much stuff....and keeping the prices down, you will get rid of the 'stuff'. I give me things to charity...there is a small church (that isn't even the same religion as I) that has a continuously going yard sale to help meet funds for the church. I have a green garbage bag going all the time. I find if I give things to charity instead of throwing it away...I'm more apt to get rid of things....thinking maybe someone could use this. Good luck.

We'll be doing one when the weather gets warmer. We didn't have much success with the one we did shortly after moving in, but who knows, maybe this time we'll be lucky.
