Working from home is becoming more and more common amoung moms and dads. Especially as childcare and gas have rose higher and higher each year. Parents want to be home with their children but still need to bring in an income. There are several ways that you can make money at home.
With this day’s topic, I want to share with ways that I have found that works. The one way that brings in an income for our household is Ebay.
Ebay is a great way to make an extra income for your home. I don’t know how true this statement is because I think it is according to the household but I have heard this statement over and over, “Every household has $3000 worth of stuff that they can sell on ebay.” But I do know that everyone has atleast 2 to 3 items in your home that you no longer use that you can sell on ebay that will help you understand the concept and help you get started.
Here are a few suggestions of items that you might have laying around the house that you can sell.
- Ol, good condition tupperware.
- Pampered Chef gadgets. Items that you thought you would us but never have, these sell great on ebay.
- Name brand jeans or clothing. think twice about the jeans or other clothing that you donate to Goodwill. Is it name brand to where you can sell it?
- woring electronics
- collectables such as Precious moments, magazines, sports items.
- Giftcards that you won’t use.
Take a look around your house. If you are not sure, shoot me an email. I will be happy to help you choose items to list.

Just to share with you a listing that I have on right now that will end this afternoon. This is a stuffed beany doll called the Mogu People. I picked this up at a good will for $1.25 look here to see what it is selling for now. You can figure 10% of fees from the sale will go to Ebay and Paypal. So I am very pleased with this item.
