You could look into a consignment store for the purses perhaps.

Is anyone here familiar with the iphone app Poshmark? You can buy/sell, trade clothes, handbags, accessories... I have had a lot of luck selling my coach purses on ebay, but other items I list on Poshmark. Anywhere you list sometimes it's a waiting game for the person with the right size and taste to come along but it's been a good way for me to get motivated to clean out my closet and stuff that doesn't sell in a certain amount of time I always donate to our local humane society that has a thrift store to help raise money to care for the doggies and kitties. smile

Do you have any children you could sell? (just kidding)

I have a bunch of Coach purses just sitting in my closet I could sell and those right there would bring in a pretty penny.

I could also chat with the guy I work with from home and see if there are some others things that I can take on for more income.

I'm going to get creative here!!

Thanks, everyone!

OK, showing my redneck roots here. What is a macaroon? These look like moon pies to me.
If you start up selling again, I'd buy some just to see what they are.

It's expensive at bakeries! about $2-3.50 per piece. We sold them for $16/dozen. At one point we were making about 500 pieces per week. That went on for a few months, and now I don't want to ever eat/taste/smell a macaroon again. (just kidding, earl grey is still my favorite). Just a thought smile

Macarons are a heavenly french delight. NOT the yucky coconut american version. Sorry, I just don't like coconut, no matter how many times and ways I try it.
