Need help Selling Stuff on short notice?
Question:We are moving out of state in one week, and our house is basically just as full as it was 2 months ago. We have tried to have a "moving sale" (one person showed up after 2 days of selling), advertised my butt off on Craigslist.org, the local paper,ebay, and priced everything uber cheap to sell... but nothing. We have had alot of calls, but of course we wait around and no one ever shows up.
I was thinking of driving to my mothers home 20 miles away tomorrow (Sunday) to try and sell, but I am not prepared, I would have to wake up at 4am to set up, and have heard that Sundays are pretty slow selling days.
At this point I am feeling pretty lost, my condo doesn't allow moving sales, so I can't even put up signs, and I don't know anyone in the area with a yard to do a garage sale there.
Any help on how to sell my stuff would be appreciated!
Answers:
If all else fails you could gather up all you can't sell but don't want and bag it up and donate to the Salvation Army or places that take donations. Get a receipt for it and you can claim that amount on your taxes. You would be surprised how much it adds up and I know a family member that does this each year so basically you still get your money.
How about advertising on your local cable station.
Is there a local store that sells things on consignment?
