Make Money With Facebook (Not like you Think)

68

By Darren Peters

Here is a little Facebook idea my wife came across after being frustrated not selling anything in a yard sale.So needless to say she wasn't to happy. She then searched Facebook for yard sales.What she found was there were allot of 24/7 yard sale groups but none in our location.She then made her own group and added a few friends that lived in town.(By the way we live in a rural area population under 1000.) she had 200 members in 4 days not a ton but a good start.People were posting new and used items to sell.We made $400.00 in 2 weeks selling unwanted stuff people love it.I use this to source items for eBay. I also buy these cheap but good wireless mice from eBay for about 3 bucks and sell em for 15.00.This is small potatoes but you could increase sales and make some cash.Things are picking up at the Deseronto Garage Sale as it is getting closer to spring,lots of electronics being sold at good prices.I purchased a net-book for 80.00 in very good condition.I have sold quite a few Nascar framed pictures that I have made myself with old frames and calenders I had laying around the house. If you need extra cash make a yard-sale group your almost guaranteed to make money. As far as making a Facebook group its easy just go here.http://romcartridge.blogspot.com/2010/01/how-to-create-group-on-facebook.html

Here is the 24/7 Napanee yard sale group http://www.facebook.com/groups/292279754116379/

Hope this was useful

This is a very good idea to get people to come to your garage sale. Will keep this in mind next time I have one.
