Hello to all -Hope you are enjoying your summer!Question - I have made a wonderful attempt at getting organized before my 1st semester of NS starts. This includes cleaning out my closet, as hard as it was! I have miscellaneous items & lots of barely worn clothes that I would like to get rid of. I need the $$$ or I would donate them. I'm afraid in my neighborhood that I won't receive a substantial amount for the items should I have a garage/yard sale. E-bay is so big that my items would probably be lost in a sea of competitors. Do you have any ideas of how to make my items profitable?Thanks for your time!Rachael

It might not benefit you now, but it will save you some money when tax time arrives next April. Good luck!

Turns out that my sister has gained a bit of weight, enough to catch up to me, and is going to buy all but about 4 pieces from me! Yea! I do appreciate your suggestions though.
