How can YOU resist???

Imagine this position I am in. As I have mentioned, I assist others to unload their items when they are moving away. Estate Sales/Garage sales they are commonly called. This provides me with first dibs on household after household of items.

When I first started the business, it was all about satisfying those seeking items, and seeing a profit. I bought NOTHING. Then, over time, with pregnancies, and my daughter needing this, and my son needing that, moving apartments, and the biggest one of them all… how can I just let this be thrown in the garabage… certainly we can make good use of it, I myself have become a good customer!

I know I have discussed clutter, and perhaps this will give you a clearer picture of how I have got into this situation - but….

HOW CAN I RESIST???

Could you say NO to a wooden bedroom set in mint condition for $400, a free framed mirror, a stainless steel juicer for $10, wooden puzzles (with all the pieces!), yet ANOTHER ride on car (but for $3!), books, and more books, and more books! If I make the purchase, I also get to pay less my commission!! When I look around my house and say that 85% of the items (and I mean EVERYTHING INCLUSIVE) are from my sales, and probably 40-50% of those items that would otherwise have gone to the trash, and for which I paid nominal amounts, you can see the considerable Perk of the trade here.

Doesnt EVERYONE need 10 down blankets??
