Do you ever stop to realize how many people throw away or give away Free Stuff? Im not talking about junk that doesn't work. im talking about perfectly good items that you can use or sell. Have you ever been driving around your city or town and see something on someone front lawn with a free sign? You probably never thought of picking it up and selling it have you? I know people who make a killing on craigslist and other sites like Facebook and more. They look for free stuff just being given away and then they sell it. This often works if you are close to a wealthier neighborhood. Patrolling around can be more profitable than you think. If you have a pick up truck you can find things like kitchen sinks, dressers, couches, doors, and more! What does it cost you to pick it up? It may need some help as far as repairs or cleaning but its totally worth it when you sell the item.

As always thank you for reading please don't forget to follow me.

this actually happened to me today when i was bringing Bailey back to vet! i saw some stuff on the side of the road with a free sign on it and the stuff looked in decent shape, so i pulled over! they had two little ride on toys and a Spiderman umbrella stroller which was in really good shape. since we don't have any boys i figured i could sell the umbrella stroller because it looks brand new really, hardly any wear and tare. and the two little ride on toys were perfect for the little one!

these little findings are so convenient sometimes especially if you are tight on money. pick up something for free and clean it up and sell it, we have done it so many times!

When we have something that we no longer need, I will sometimes sell it on Craigslist, and when we need something that is usually one of the first places that I look, Sometimes you can find some great deals there, and another place to find bargains is at a thrift store.
When there is free items on Craigslist, there are always people rushing to get the free item. Any time I have listed something for free, within a few moments of listing it, I will have a bunch of people that want to come and pick it up, and I can take the listing back off of Craigslist.
Some of these people might actually need the item I am offering; but a lot of them are just getting it free to re-sell it again.

Seems to be a great idea to earn you extra income on the side, I had never thought of it that way. One man's trash is another man's gold mine.

In Nigeria, this is simply true considering the fact that some people have even taken it as a work to always go round picking free stuff that others have thrown away as not being used anymore. I mean things like cups, books as well as metals. Metals are being sorted because it can be used to make rods that are used in building houses over here. So, these set of people go round looking for metals thrown away and when they have packed it, they go and sell them to those that take it to places where they will be melted.

I have seen people thrown away food, coupons, clothing and many small items. They can make money selling this on ebay. But it seems like they don't have the time. And that's what makes things a lot better for many of them. I guess in such cases where you have to manage the earning, it just makes me wonder if this can be leveraged. So far not much seen people making most out of it. So it depends on each one of us to make money. We have to take things seriously and build on top of all that stuff. It'd be reasonable to say that if it can be regular earning from that. But all it needs is buyer and then such stuff can be reused.

Most of the good used stuff or previously owned things are found and sold on ebay or amazon. Some of it is junk though or not properly described and when you actually physically receive it, boy are you in for a surprise. But yeah every now and then you find old stuff that was thrown out and is still useful or can be fixed up. I got an old CRT monitor that way 7 years ago. A company was throwing out a Gateway ev700 CRT and I answered an ad to pick it up before it was scrapped. It served me well for more than 4 years before I got a dell and an HP CRT monitor. The HP I then got rid of for a dell widescreen monitor. I still have the black dell crt in storage as it works perfectly.

I never thought I could do such a thing, maybe because here in my country people donate them to their relatives. I know that in Germany people get their free stuff in front of their houses and leave them there as anyone can take them. I know people from my country that goes there and take these stuff, brings them to my country and sell them for a lot of money (I am talking about TV, Fridge, stuff with value).

Free stuff is a great way to have many items as you want. But when selling it is a different way. If you want to sell it, make sure that it is convinient. You must get a permission to the one who gave that free items.

Sounds like a swell idea, but I'm sure it's way more difficult than at first glance. In other words, you need to have an eye for value an ability to sell, as well as a good marketplace. Therefore, I would advise getting well educated on the subject before diving in.

It is indeed more difficult. I have seen some of the list based websites where this is going on. Think of it as a full time job. You can make some decent money from this. But nothing is much guaranteed over in this industry. And even harder part is getting new users. Because pushing paid programs through free offer is not an easy task.

Unfortunately, that's not the case in my country. No one will be willing to give you their old stuff which they no longer use here. They will try to find some way to sell them for example through garage sales. I have been selling many stuff which I no longer use this way. I have also tried to sell online. I have also donated clothes which I no longer wear to charity.
