“Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing... ”
Recently we watched an interesting documentary called "My stuff " The idea was to put all your stuff into a storage, and bring back only one item per day. Although we are not ready for such radical decluttering methods, watching the movie convinced us that it was time to make some quick cash by selling some of our unwanted stuff.Jerome K. Jerome (May 2, 1859 – June 14, 1927) was an English author, best known for the humorous travelogue Three Men in a Boat.

In the past we have tried having garage sales and also sold things on ebay and found it profitable but a bit time consuming.
This time we decided to try listing our stuff on our towns community buy and sell page on facebook:
itemsforsaleNewmanWesternAustralia
We posted some photos of our stuff including some hand bags, china and other odds and ends.
Sold in 30 minutes!
Sold same day!
We were surprised how quickly the things were snapped up. Not only did we make some cash but we also met some friendly neighbours.
