For many, fall is the season of crisp air, crunching leaves, and pumpkin spice lattes. It is also the season of shopping. However, with record-high inflation driving up prices of goods, services, millions of Americans are looking to make some extra cash this holiday season and prepare for Christmas shopping this year.
Luckily, you don’t have to look too far to make a quick buck. If you are like the average American household, you and your family probably have boxes upon boxes of old and unused things lying around your basement, the attic, and the garage. Especially as the holidays roll around, everybody is looking for special items for their loved ones. There may be no better time than fall to sell some of your old and pre-loved items as well as last year’s unwanted presents. Here are some of the best things to sell in the fall to pad your holiday shopping budget.
Sella is a professional service that sells your items for you. You can sell anything that is easy to handle, and fits into a car, and makes sense to sell. One rule of thumb to keep in mind is to stick to items that are generally worth more than $40. Common necessities like smartphones and small appliances are also a solid place to start.
Many people begin preparing for Christmas as soon as Halloween is over, and fo some it’s even earlier. So take a look around your house, checking every closet from the basement to the attic to see what items you can sell that people may want to buy as gifts or treat themselves with for the holiday season.
Get the family involved by asking the kids if they have old PlayStations, video games and consoles in good condition they no longer use. Tell them they can put the money they make from the sale towards buying new ones.
It’s important to be forward-thinking. If we’re selling in the fall, we want to think about what people will buy in the winter. Popular winter items include snowboards, skis, snowshoes, ice skates, ice fishing equipment, power generators, and smaller snowblowers. With the cold weather right around the corner, demand surges for quality winter gear.
Furthermore, you can count on fitness to begin trending again this January. Isn’t working out and losing weight the most popular New Year’s Resolution? With this in mind, it’s prime time to re-home the workout equipment and gear someone else will certainly need.
