So after a busy week I'm finally taking a breath and relaxing. Does that sound like your life too? We went to candlelight vinyasa last night with some friends (a great way to start off the weekend!) and then ate at a delicious Mexican place in town. (I say ate, but in fact, I scarfed two enchiladas with rice and beans. Oops). A pretty awesome Friday night, I must say.
My latest interest (or obsession) is this app called Poshmark. To put it in 3 words = easy online consignment.
Got your interest? (At this point, you are either thinking, eww, old clothes gross me out - I've seen the Goodwill, or, you are thinking, Why didn't I think of that?? (I know, I'm wondering the same thing. Darn.)
So you create an account, take pictures and post them in your 'closet' with a brand, size, and price, and then voila! They go into a newsfeed and other posh users can hunt for brands they love or items they want to buy. If they buy it, poshmark emails you the shipping to print out. You box the item up, slap on the postage, and drop it at USPS. Once the package is delivered, poshmark deposits your earning into your bank account.
I tried out the app about 6 months ago with one pair of shoes. They never sold. (Sad face). However, in the past 2 weeks I added 8 items to my closet and sold 3 pairs of shoes. (Wheee!!!!) All my friends know I love to shop, I hate not getting use out of clothing I buy, and I like to save money.... So if I can make $$ on old clothes I never wear, or shoes I bought and wore once, I'm helping myself and someone else!! How generous of me, right?
If you are interested in the app and know someone using it, contact them for a code and both of you will get $5 credit added to your account.
And hey, $5 goes a long way when you are buying new citizen jeans for $25! Sigh. Happiness.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
