Money Free Through Classifieds

I will tell you how you can take unwanted items,and list them for free using your local newpaper.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • A phone number
  • the internet
  • Old stuff you can sell
  1. Step 1

    The first step to making this work is to find the website,or websites to your local papers,once there find the classified options,and in there you should see free classified ads.Most papers have this options,and they let you post free items for sale as long as its for sale under 500 dollars,and you keep the ad under three lines.So sign up for an account,and get ready to start selling,I've found that it sells much faster then Ebay.

  2. Step 2

    The next step is to go through all of your stuff and pick out items you no longer need,and there are people out there looking for almost anything so don't think it won't sell.So once you have all the items you want to try and sell write them down,and put prices to them,like what your going to list it for,and whats the lowest you'll take for the item.

  3. Step 3

    The last two steps are easy,first take picture of everything from different angles,and upload them all to your computer to a file only for the items for sale.Then start listing them for sale,its good to list two,or three things at once,but don't list everything.See if anyone else is selling the same things you are,and try to price yours better.Then sit back and wait for the phone to start ringing,I was amazed at how fast the classifieds sell.
