Here We Go!

Times are changing here at the State household, big news: I quit my job! There's multiple reasons behind this decision but one thing it means it I'm going full time on eBay. I'm consistently getting questions about how I do what I do and this will be a place to answer those and hopefully help a few of you get on a journey of freedom. I also need to have a place where I keep tract of my goals and hold myself accountable, I will be posting daily and weekly numbers as well as hauls and how to's.

This week was pretty crazy, Yesterday I spent about 3 hours at the Goodwill Outlet, aka the bins, I don't normally like to go on Saturdays but it had to happen that way this week. Usually when I go Saturdays are insane, I can't push my cart down an isle and people are everywhere. Yesterday I went around 5 pm and it was glorious!! New bins would come out and I would have one all to myself, it doesn't get better than that. I picked up 87 pieces for a total of $56, making it 66 cents an item.

The clothes around the mannequin are my newest finds, lots of Anthropologie!


This week has been slow, I like to hit $1,000 a week and I'm way behind. All I can do is keep listing and hope that everything evens out. My goal is to list 300 more items by the end of the month. I currently have 227 active items with 156 sold for the month of September. 

My highest items sold this week was actually my husbands old bullet belt, $51

I have one last week working a corporate job and then I'll be full time ebay, I'm only putting part time hours in now so the sky is the limit!

  1. Hi Nicole, I'm new to your blog. Found you via She Thrifts. I love the GW outlet aka the bins! You have found some great clothing items. I haven't found much in the way of clothes to resell. I think I'm just going to have to look harder! Congratulations on your quitting your job - you sound very happy about it. Looks like you're doing pretty good on eBay and that things are working out. Great!
