Hey Everyone! I am excited to announce I am going on my second week and I am on target! I am at $255 on day 13.

How I did it:

My first sale was a dinning room table my husband and I redid this past summer. I purchased a 3 piece set (a hutch, a buffet and a dinning room table) from Genesee County Habitat for Humanity ReStore.  I already had a dinning room table so I stripped it and stained it last of course.  I was so excited to find my buffet I was in heaven working on it turning into a shabby chic master piece.  Anyways, after I finished the furniture I wanted for my house I did the table and started to post to sell.  Well winter came along and it is TOOOOO cold for me outside so I kind of forgot about it until our challenge started, so I posted it on craigslist.com.  Within a week I had it sold for $150!

My second week and my sales have nothing to do with furniture.  I teamed up with a couple of ladies and taught an Essential Oil Class.  At the class we taught everyone how amazing oils are, what they can do for you and your family and then we sold products we had made out of our essential oils.  For Christmas I had made lotion bars, healing salve, sleep sticks, and zap a zit sticks.  SOOO I had a lot left over so I really didn’t have to do anything special or spend money on making more.  I had also made travel cases for my essential oils, so I displayed them and sold them made to order for anyone interested.  I did $78 in sales with stuff I had already made.

My last bit of MONEY I made was with swagbucks.com .  I didnt have to spend anything to make money here either!  I took a few surveys while on the couch, typed in a few codes here and there when they popped up on my app.  I had enough points after two weeks to get a $25 gift certificate for Restaurant.com . How perfect is that money for a date night!!

How are your NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS GOING?
