The sleeping bag I bought in the fall for our backpacking trip ended up being a bust, I froze my tush off the whole weekend and wished fervently for a better bag!

This week REI Outlet had their 20% off the lowest sale price sale so I picked up a new sleeping bag with a 15 degree rating (woohoo warmth!) and since it’s from REI I will be able to return it if I end up freezing again or totally hate the bag (gotta love their guarantee!)…

So, Monday I listed my other sleeping bag, and I just sold it!!! Woo-hoo, took a $25 loss but I did get a weekend’s worth of use out of it.

Anywho, the sale got me thinking, how much have we sold on Craigslist? A lot! At least $1500 worth over the past couple of years, probably even more than that. So, if you’ve never given it a try, do it! You can score some sweet cash for pretty easy by selling your unwanted items.

Today’s sale turned out to be pretty ironic too, the guy worked in the same office complex as me! No joke, 3 doors down, how crazy is that??? Sure made the transaction a whole lot more convenient for both of us!

Happy selling!
