Decluttering can feel overwhelming and daunting just thinking about it, but it doesn't have to be! Printables for decluttering can make this process extremely organized and easy.
To start decluttering, I had to pick a room, the space that bothered me the most, and just start. If I hadn't used the item, let alone thought about it, in over six months, it needed to go.
Honestly, we started decluttering our home to help accelerate our debt payoff journey, not because it had occurred to us that we might have too much stuff. My husband and I had read Dave Ramsey's Total Money Maker and in May of this year {2019} committed to getting out of debt. Actually, we listened to it on Audible. In August we had decided to take the Financial Peace University class at a local church.

There are many easy ways to sell your unused items and make money from decluttering. These two are my favorite:
Here is my sign up for Mercari invitation link - you get $10 and I get $10.
I joined Mercari in July of this year {2019} and since then have earned over $900 for the unused items in my house! SCORE!
As of 12/27/2019, $1,220.65 is my total Mercari earnings just by decluttering my home!
My absolute favorite thing about Mercari is that there is NO meeting people, no anxiously and awkwardly waiting in parking lots (or is that just me?), and no waiting for buyers that never show. Ain’t nobody got time for that.
You ship everything that you sell on Mercari. So all I do is pack my items, print my shipping label, and schedule a USPS pickup. Easy peasy!
Such an easy way to get some cash for the items in my home that were otherwise laying around just collecting dust.
My city puts on a HUGE consignment shop twice a year, in the Spring and Fall. And I mean huge, it takes place in our local civic center! When I have kids' clothes, toys, books & other accessories that I have not passed down to mom friends, I sell them at consignment. My husband helps me sort and enter items into the system, and then print, label, and tag everything. For this consignment shop, we have the option to donate everything that does not sell. We choose this option so that if we made some money from our unused items, then great! If not, then they get donated to local charities, also great! We drop our items off on the scheduled date and wait for our earnings check to be mailed.
The first time we sold our unused items at the consignment shop was in April. We earned $156.65.
In October, we had a lot more unused items ready to sell! We earned $233.35.
All of the money we earn from decluttering and selling the items we no longer want or use goes straight to our debt snowball!
