This week I:
- Made $1.45 with Google Adsense
- Sold 3 books at Half.com
- Nearly finished my test site for a Candy Buffet business
- Almost finished sewing 36 tres chic cocktail napkins (sorry, meant to have pic. will post later) for an Etsy shop
- Decluttered my Closet & drawers by 50% (but found nothing worthy to list on Ebay)
Total made: $27.49
Minimal progress. But this week was more about setting up the my ‘ducks in a row’. Getting ready for take off.
I plan on making progress by:
- Writing another article or two for ehow.com
- Opening my Etsy store & design banner
- Continue collecting and recycle my aluminum cans
- Clean out kitchen clutter and post on Ebay & work’s Eboards
- Continue to think of more ways to produce money
How is your progress?
ps – Be sure to check out Coupons.com for your free grocery coupons. This weekend, there is like huge sales at the grocery stores due to the holiday. I am getting my California Pizza Kitchen’s (CPK) pizzas for $1 cuz I am armed with my coupon(s).

just set up the etsy shop. still a way to go with it. but it functions! http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5696861
Right on Girlie! I love the goods. The pillow is soooo cute. And the wedding favors are such an exceptional personalization. Very cool
Wow, you are moving right along! Good for you!
Thank you. Now if it will just produce the results I want.
Wow you are doing awesome so far!! I’m so jealous!
I have to make myself do a lot of it. In the nights I come home wanting to put it off until ‘the next day’… I must pick up and chug along.
that is a fantastic start!!!! Keep it up
If there is nothing worth selling on Ebay from your closet, would any of the items be worth taking to a consignment store? Most stores pay between 40-50% of what they earn. If there’s nothing that will sell at all, donate your cast-offs to a charity. You can use it as a tax deduction. Just make a list of everything you donated. The charity will have a standard list of what the items are typically worth.
No, I don’t think any are worthy. Basic tees, basic blouses, etc… thank you for the tips. I am, however, delivering 3 big bags of clothes to charity. And claiming my write off.
Speaking of, I need to go check out the consignment shops. Now that I dumped 50% of my clothing I need to replace with a few good pieces.
Great start Christine…I love the idea of candy buffets
Oh thank you. My friend and I are still toying with the candy buffet idea. I still need to research the cost to get started. Shouldn’t be too out of place. Especially because I have 40% coupons for the candy jars.
Thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. I am so glad I found your blog. I love it.
Best wishes,
Janie
Thank you, Janie. I’m always happy to find a new blog myself. Til further great reading….
Great start! I wish mine was going as well as yours! =D
Thanks. I hope to keep the momentum (of course, this weekend I was much more focused on fun & food). Til the remainder of September! *Cheers*
Really a very good start!
I have also tried aluminium cans recycling at my home n I was able to collect many cans. This weekend I will be going to local market to sell them.
Oh thank you.
I am so glad to hear that you are applying a win-win situation of helping the environment and recieving a payment at the market. I look forward to hearing how it works out for you.
