The semester is over and summer is finally upon us. Most college students do not have the luxury of experiencing a summer vacation, being launched into a part-time seasonal job. Money will be the only thing on my mind this summer. I realized, after bringing all of my dorm stuff home: I have too much stuff! How could I get rid of all this extra stuff laying around and make money..... Garage Sale!
1. Over priced Text Books
"Why is this small book 25 dollars?" Let's face it, we aren't going to use those books for other than a nightstand. Flipping them is the best option but getting full price back is something of the imagination.
2. Bulk packages of Ramen Noodles
Us college students over prepare for everything: studying, studying, studying, oh and sometimes food. Do not be surprised to find a large box filled with these babies laying around in the university student's utopia.
3. Poster Gum
Most likely rolled up in a small ball with a 25 cent sticker pasted onto it, do not be fooled, this item has been used before. The college kids go to for hanging up all photos and poster. This stuff is magic but does not buy it off the college kid.
4. Condoms
Like proved in the last point, us college kids will try to sell almost anything. Let's also face the reality, coming home there are fewer chances to encounter the brown chicken brown cow moments we had in college. Hey, maybe the young 14-year old who is too fearful to get them at a drugstore might be suckered into picking them up.
5. Juvenile Posters
Cleaning out the room for the months of summer leads to the conflicting idea of finally getting rid of the posters you have had hanging on the walls since middle school. Flip them for a dollar a piece and you might have enough money to buy half a textbook next semester!
6. University Clothes
Remember begging your mom for that hoodie at that bookstore at that college you ended up not going to? Well instead of misinforming people as to which college you attended, might as well flip it!
7. Stuffed Animals
Did you actually go through with a relationship with that creepy guy from tinder and have tokens of his presence still in your life? Sell them to an unsuspecting four-year-old who will have no idea how many hours you cried into that bear.
8. Clothing
Let's face the facts, college has changed us all. From our ideologies right down to our jeans. Donate what you can to salvation armies but flip some old jeans for hard cash.
9. Dorm Rejected Items
Was your favorite smelling candle sitting in the head RA's office all semester long? Don't make the same mistake twice come health and safety inspections next year and turn in those non-UL approved Christmas lights in UL approved ones.
