Hey gang - need some ideas here.... Having our garage sale next weekend. I already have plenty of 'garage sale' stuff to sell... Now I am looking for the 'off the wall' stuff to sell... Here's where you come in ~ HELP! I already have planned the following food items: coffee donuts...

~I'd really like some opinions on our situation. We're moving from NJ, a flat land of temperate weather to CO, a land of mountains and snow. I got my DH to agree that his Hyundai Tiburon wasn't really the best vehicle choice for the new state. I've also been wanting to go just one car. I only...

~I have a couple of nice pieces we bought on our honeymoon that I would like to sell. I have no idea what they're really worth. I've done searches around the web and on Ebay and the range of asking prices is all over. Has anyone sold art before?~

~I have boxes of stuff "flung" in last year's challenge that haven't left the house yet due to me not listing them. Since we're moving across country mid-year, I will have lots more stuff to unload before we go. And we could really use the money too. ;) My goal is to list at least 5 items a...

DH and I bought our house 5 years ago. It wasn't our dream home, but it was in the area we wished to be and was workable. Our dream is to build a home (dome, to be specific) and have some property (5+ acres). This house is sucking the financial life out of us. Our financial circumstances...

I'm curious what happens tax wise when you sell stocks. It was set up so the dividends keep reinvesting. Since our FFEF is tanked and the EF is about tanked dh and I were thinking of sell stock to pay off the last medical bill and to bring the emergency funds back to life. However I don't want...

Last year we finally had to buy DH a car. We got him a Ford Focus. We have a note $188 and a balance of roughly $6200. His dad just passed away and he will be getting his car. It's newer, nice and will be paid off! Neither of us has ever sold a car. Any strategies or advice? Also, what is the...

We have a 1989 Ford Econoliner. It's in good condition with power everything, good tires-everything but a good battery. Back in 1989, it was the picture of "Luxury Van". It also gets about 16 feet a gallon. :cowwave: We have 6 kids, so we needed a back up munchkin hauler. We have a Chevy...

We live away from our home city at the moment and probably will continue to do so indefinitely. One month before this job came up, we took out a 4 year novated lease on a new car. All car repayments, repairs, petrol and even car washes came off my husband's pre-tax pay so from a taxation point...

We have about a year before my husband's next duty station which is likely to be Germany but we won't know til close to then. Our home is a late 90's manufactured home with a 2bedroom addition on an acre in a small town. Some of my family does live in the area so in theory we could have people...

I went to a multi-family yardsale today. I asked if it was a benefit sale or something and I found out that it was a group of people that had been doing a Dave Ramsey course. This exercise was to "sell everything but the kids" to raise money for EFs or snowballing. It was fun to talk frugal...

Its a 1998 GMC Yukon. Had transmission rebuilt in February,Head Gasket replaced in April and just have had the fuel pump and fuel filter replaced this month. Needs windshield replaced. Also replaced passenger side mirror that was broken. I am looking to sell for no less than 4500$ or trade for a...

Well I did it this yesterday from 6:30 am to 11:00am and I am so proud I made $1000. :grwave: I put some stuff in a friends two weeks ago and I made $285 at it. :hurray: So I am going to try again this fall. I still have things I could sell. :yippee: Dave says sell so much that the kids think...

When someone has booked a showing, have a giant barking dog accost them at the door, then sit in the doorway of the livingroom, restraining it, while they attempt to look around. It helps if you are also creepy and incoherant. Don't vacuum your floors, preferrably for months or years.

A long time ago, I picked up a 7 place (almost 8 place - I think one piece is missing) setting of Pickard Greenbriar at a church rummage sale for a very low cost. We don't use this setting often if at all. Pricing this out at replacements.com gives a replacement cost of $1,100 - 1,500. What...

Here is the situation... We have an opportunity to move out of State and live close to family. The job offer is most likely not going to happen again. A few close family members are getting ill, our children don't know many of them (they are 8 & 9). Current job situation is this. I was put...

I have a few books hanging around & I was debating trying to sell them on Amazon. Is it worth it for just a few? opinions please. :tubby4:

Hi All, I was not sure if I should post this here or somewhere else, but I am working on my stockpiling list, and was wondering if Winco sells mills? I know they have a large bulk food area but I have only been in one store, did not really see the rest of the store and have no clue. I am going...
