Reasons To Get Involved With Online Buying And Selling

At least give it a try!

5
Reasons To Get Involved With Online Buying And Selling

1. You have room for more

Deciding what you wear and what you don't need becomes a lot easier because you get a profit from what you decide to sell. Making it much easier to fit more into your closet.

2. No need to use your hard earned money for new items

With the profit you make from selling your old unwanted items, you can purchase new items that you will get much more use out of.

3. You do not need to bring your clothes to a shop that will buy them for much less

Such as Plato's Closet, where you will get 75 cents for a shirt that is new with tags still attached that say $180 (yes that did happen to me).

4. You will make new friends

I have several different shopping apps on my phone, Mercari, Poshmark, Tradesy, Wanelo, and many more! The relationships I have made with some of the sellers are very strong and I continue to buy from them because I know the items will arrive in wonderful condition everytime!

5. Expensive brands for less

You quickly learn the deals and what is worth the buy and how quickly you need to buy before someone else. I have found brand new $400 purses for around $50!

6. You can shop whenever, wherever

You connect with others around the world at anytime! Say you work nights, so you sleep in the daytime. On your days off you can still shop when you're the only one up at 2-5 AM! In bed, on the train, in the coffee shop, even while you're driving! (Please, don't do that though, it is illegal).

7. You become familiar with the brands you like, and your sizes

Have you ever been asked by someone in a store, "can you please check my tag and see what size I am in jeans." It happens often to me, (mainly when I'm with my mom haha). I know exactly what size I am in almost everything, and I can refine my searches to my sizing so if I see something I like, I know I am not looking at something I can't have, because that's always a let down!

8. It's a free job

You do not need to fill out an application, or be a male, female, or any specific race. Everyone is accepted and everyone has a free chance to earn money!

There are many, many more reasons why you should online shop! Start downloading the apps, and at least give it a try! :)

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
