Sourcing eBay Inventory

I've had many people ask me where I source my eBay inventory, so I thought I'd put together a quick list for everyone. My experience is mainly with clothing, but all of these can be great resources for other items as well.

The Quest for the Perfect Summer Handbag

I'm always looking for the perfect bag. And I'm picky. Super picky. My friends have called me obsessed and maybe a bit compulsive, any perhaps they're right. We all have our own little quirks, right?

The list of must-have qualities for my summer bag is quite specific. It has to be functional. Nothing fussy. Not too big, but definitely not too small. Room enough for everything (water bottle, keys, phone, wallet, tablet, snacks, and a book or magazine). It needs to be lightweight. And washable! I don't like carrying my leather bags in the summer, so I typically go for something more casual like canvas or nylon.

Here are some of that bags that have caught my eye this year...

How I turned free items from a garage sale into cash!

Sounds like one of those late night infomercials, right?

But it's not. I "flip" items I find through thrifting (garage sales, Goodwill, thrift shops, etc.) on eBay for a profit. It's how I can help support our family and still be a stay at home mom. No shame in that. In fact, I'm kinda proud of making a profit from the "junk" that others throw away.
