In debt? Sell something!

Written by Texas Tracy on July 23, 2008

It is with great interest that I follow other blogs regarding people who are deeply in debt, my favorite being by Tricia at Blogging Away Debt. I think that these type of blogs are so popular with both the in debt and the not in debt (thankfully, me) readers because they make you feel like you are not alone (if you are in debt) or you are doing better than you thought you were (if you are not in debt). To those of you in debt, as well as those of you who are not in debt but would still like some extra change in your pocket, I challenge you in this post. Sell something!!!

My husband and I have been happily married for eighteen years. During those eighteen years we have moved five times, each time taking with us a few wedding presents we just could not put into circulation but also felt like we should keep. Well, this week I listed one of those wedding presents. The current bid is $36. It may go for more or it may not, but I am certainly pleased with $36. We all have stuff like this in our house that we can sell. Just think if you had five items like this-and I am sure that you do-that all brought $30 if sold. $150 sounds pretty darn good!

Here is our Terra Sancta Guild Door Knocker wedding gift gone unused. I wish it many happy knocks.
