To Keep or not to Keep, that is the Question
By Digital Excellent
To Keep or not to Keep, that is the QuestionThere are many great
reasons for having a yard sale. Some people have yard sales before they move so
they don't have to pack and keel belongings they aren't using. Sometimes they
are updating the look of their home and sell their old belongings to make money
and room for the new ones. Sometimes your children just grow like weeds and
rapidly outgrow both their clothes and their toys. It could also simply be the
desire to purge all those items you've held onto for so long, thinking you'd
find a use for them but never did. No matter what your reason, having a yard
sale is a relatively easy goal to discharge and requires just a few hours of
preparation and a few more hours actually selling your wares. You'll reap both
financial and emotional rewards from it.
Decide on a date for your yard sale, then get to work surveying the items you
have. When you're going through your house deciding what to sell, you'll
have to be brutally honest with yourself. If you haven't used it, don't
approximative it, don't see yourself using it or don't know of anyone
personally who could gain from it, then it's a yard sale item. Sort through
every dresser and kitchen drawer, every clothes
and linen closet, every cupboard
and toy box you have in your house. Don't forget your basement, attic, pantry,
entertainment center, buffet and outdoor tool shed as well. If an item belongs
to a family member, don't make the decision for them. Get their input before
placing an aspect in your yard sale box. Regardless of the time it takes to sort
through all your items, make the commitment to stick with it and remind yourself
on a continual origination the monetary profit and emotional relief you'll
feel once your clutter has been cleared from your home. Once the sale is now,
make another commitment to yourself not to bring the unsold items back into your
home. Make arrangements with your local rescue mission or charity thrift store
to consign the items. Most will be happy to make arrangements to pick up large
donations as well as provide you with a tax receipt reflecting your generous
donation.
Once irrefutable's all said and done, you'll have some extra pocket
change, and can breathe an emotional sigh of relief that the clutter that's
been weighing you down for so long has been purged from your home. Maintain your
occasion to remain organized and to combat the clutter demon on a continual
basis.
