Summary: I don't know about you but every fall season - I get in the "de-cluttering" mood! I want to clean the house, have a yard sale, and tidy up all the closets!

This week I've been doing some shopping online, and wanted to share a few ideas with you on how to bring in some extra $$ - while cleaning your house!

Now you don't have to sell stuff in your front yard! There are so many auctions online, that all you need to do is; find a site, fill in the information, and wait for someone to buy your item!

Example: At most yard sales, jeans are priced from .25 - $2.

This week I bought some Tommy Hilfiger & Jnco jeans for the kids for $3.20 - $6.20.

These jeans retail from $45 - $65 per pair (which I will not pay), so I got a great deal! The seller is also getting far more than they would in any yard sale, so this has worked out well for both of us!

You don't really have any expenses! The buyer pays the shipping fees & the post office gives you boxes & mailing materials FREE! Most auctions charge a very small %, but usually only if you sell the item! They will even take credit cards for you & deposit the money into your account if you wish! One of the companies that gives this service on ebay.com is - Paypal. They will give you $5 FREE to start out your account - PLUS $5 for each person you tell about the service!

A site called auction.com tracks a huge list of auction sites!

Here you will be able to find MANY places to sell your stuff!

* Keep an eye open for good deals at stores & yard sales.

You can resell these items for a nice profit!

A gentleman here bought a tapestry for $100 at a local auction. He placed it up for bid online & an armored truck came to his house with almost half a million $$!

Hey - you never know!

Get rid of that stuff & make some extra money - you might start to like it!
