Attempts to make some dough

I've done it again...kept my ideas in my head instead of blogging it. But I just have to share with someone (I'm getting cabin fever since I'm on my third snow day in a row)...that I just posted my first items for sale on Craig's List and Amazon. I listed four books on Amazon, books I know I won't reread or ever need again (like my study guide for my Praxis test for middle school English area). The profile showed that a couple of books I listed have over a hundred selling right now, some starting at $.49, so I'm not too hopeful about selling mine for $5. But I want to get my feet wet in this since my husband and I have been talking about this as a possible way for an occasion extra cash source. You'd be amazed at how much "stuff" we've acquired in our short five-and-a-half years of marriage...and how much of it hasn't been used or has been barely used. On Amazon, I listed two throw pillows that we bought for our living room back when we were newlyweds and living in our townhouse, and I also listed a brand new pair of tennis shoes that my husband was never able to wear. I have no idea how successful these items will be with bringing us any cash; honestly, I'm just excited to have accomplished the process of registering, posting, etc., all on my own!
