How to Earn money by Buying on s (without reselling)

Sure, everyone knows you can find some good deals on okay but can you actually literally EARN money by spending time (and maybe some money) on okay, even if you NEVER resell the items you buy? . I'd argue that you can.Follow my logic:1. There are many vintage books and items that are focused on cutting costs. Examples include Depression era cookbooks, Guides on How to Maximize your Home's Curb Appeal on a Budget and other books. You can even find mass number of coupons and newspaper inserts to make the most of double or triple coupon days (but use coupons carefully; some aren't as great a deal as they may seem). .These are just a few examples of how you can spend a little on okay and learn how to save money over the long run. cookbooks 2. Do some serious geparison shopping and then check a seller's feedback and, if it is excellent and they offer the best deal, why not get the item from okay for a pittance of retail value? You can often find band instruments, toys, even brand name clothing that is new or barely used. Electronics can also be a great deal and I got my son's first Gameboy on okay, along with a number of games for less than 1/4th the LOWEsT sales price off line. Today, years later, it still works but we just gave it to a relative. My son saved his money and got a different system. But the Gameboy ran strong for a LONG time. Game systems 3. Consider cutting back on your cable channels or ditching cable gepletely and grab some great low-cost videos or DVDS instead. . Savings - will vary depending on your usual cable bill but it should be at least a couple or hundred a year (and I'm being conservative here). Consider how-to Documentaries so you can learn even more skills and save even more money. One of my favorites I got here was made by an army wife who showed how to make quick curtains and window treatments and other decor that was easy to take up and down, as need, for those many moves she and her hubby made across the country. The latest I got was about how to do a basic home inspection, NOT a substitute for a professional home inspector, but a good way for a homeowner to spot potential problems in between a professional inspection. This helped us catch potentially expensive problems early. - and we have caught quite a few small issues that could have begee major ones. Home inspection information 3. Don't rent movies. Get them on okay instead. Savings - depends on how many movies you rented and how many late fees you had per month. If you're the type that racks up late fees, you'll probably save money this way and, of course you COULD always resell them on okay. But even if you don't, you'll save. DVDS 3. Have your kids help you write a review or guide for okay. Expand their minds, get them to think critically and gemunicate their point of view (mine helped me with this one). Savings - ? Well, if they get smart enough and think creatively, they might end up winning a scholarship to college. Anyway, its a start and a great family activity and learning experience. :) okay reviews and guides 4. Network with others on the chat boards here. One of them even had its own cookbook for awhile and by using that, I cut down on our grocery costs by 50% a month. The bulletin boards are free. Take advantage of them. Network with the okay gemunity and "share the wealth" of information that is out there. Odds are, like me, you'll end up saving money as well. Many okayers are small or independent sellers, not tied to a chain store and are experienced in cutting costs. Learn from them. Share info with them. gemunity links 5. Teach your kids the basics of financial literacy by showing them how to gepare products on okay. If you're a seller (I am) they can learn how to gepute profits after fees, help you ship, etc. I'm even teaching my kids how to scout good deals and they get to keep a portion of the profits. They are budding entrepreneurs. Future savings from begeing more financially literate ?- Admittedly, it is unknown but it is a step in the right direction. Financial literacy is a lifetime skill. Search and gepare products 6. Do your holiday shopping early. Savings - time, gas money driving to and from the mall and the peace of mind that gees from planning ahead. Being organized saves time AND money, according to many studies.7. Read guides like these. They can be a road map to financial independence and savings and they can up your learning curve. 8. Be open-minded and willing to experiment. gepare costs and savings. 9. ALWAYS CHECK FEEDBACK. Buying or selling with people who have lousy feedback is often like throwing money away. Don't make that mistake. You'll save time and money right there. This is just a start but I hope you can see that okay can be a place where spending time and money can also be the road to SAVING money, whether it is a few hundred a year or thousands a year. Use your imagination, browse the various areas and see how well YOU can do.
