Earn extra cash by selling your summer clothes as you switch to your fall wardrobe. “Often people think only high-priced or designer pieces will sell second hand, but the second hand market is for everyone at any price point,” personal finance expert Jessica Moorhouse told Peak Money. She recommends choosing what to sell by looking at second hand markets and finding the gaps. Once you’ve got your items ready, you’ve got options. Local consignment stores will sell your items for you but take a cut — usually 30% to 50%. But if you’re willing to put in the work, you can sell your clothes through platforms like Poshmark, Facebook Marketplace, or Kijiji, where you can list for free, but could be charged varying fees depending on the post’s visibility or whether you sell. Just make sure your photos are clear, and your prices are close to similar products, said Moorhouse. “As the saying goes, one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.”
