Selling on Ebay frugally with coupons & Herbs
67Family why I am frugal
Selling on ebay
Alright I am frugal yeah me!!!. The reason for this hub is Ebay, I am at Ebay once again, selling what I do and what I grow and my coupons (my new favorite frugal hobby). Couponing has become a way of life for me and now Ebay is helping not only buy coupons but share my finds with America.
I have noticed that some places cannot get certain coupons and some we can print here but not in certain states. I buy coupons myself on ebay, so I gave it a whirl and started selling my extras because well sharing is caring. Making a little extra on something you love is worth while.
How I sell coupons on eBay:
1st: I buy as many Sunday papers as possible on Saturday because the paper on Saturday is only.75cents.
Then I list the item for a dollar yes wow.$.25 cents but sometimes they go up from there. Here's the goody even if it doesn't go up you are making .$25 cents more available for you to buy more what? Coupons.
The thing is that I don't just sell my coupons. I grow herbs, and list them on ebay. I have to get better by adding pics so my buyers can see how pretty they actually are especially since it's raining so now in the Miami area. My Rosemary is a bush and already I add one ebay listing and a buyer wants in because she explains that the one at her local market that goes for $3.00 is not enough.
I replied that she will get a nice qunatity and for $1.00 plus $1.00 for shipping wowsers that's a steal. Now I am new at this I don't know who long it will take for the herbs to get there so freshness is keen I have to see the outcome of this look up how to package the herbs and how much it will cost.
Ebay buyers are looking for dirt cheap, they don't want to spend money on shipping. Why coupons are so easy, you throw them in a n envelop slap two stamps and off they go.
Nevertheless I have sold my first two items of my own doings on eBay with the herbs it's all profit I grow them and they are paying for the shipping so that's a dollar I am pocketing. Here's the thing after I see the outcome I will add many listing turning $1.00 into 20 and so on. Talk about paying my cable bill or Internet. Another frugal way to make residual income without even trying.
oKAY so as I am still at the beginning of selling on ebay and sold two items. I have customers that are willing to show me how to dry my rosemary. I kind know but I'm not a know it all and sometimes new ideas are great ideas.
HOW TO DRY ROSEMARY:
clip your rosemary clean (warm water running over your herbs) I don't fertilize or use chemicals but you never know what the lawn people might do right?
Then use extra large bags poke holes wrap a pretty red bow for a nice effect and tye your herbs upside down in a ventilated area. No dust please. When herbs are dry put them in cute glass bottles (just like those high quality supermarket brands) and ready for use.
How great is that for a customer response. Please add your own drying herbs ideas and advice...

But do check the buyer's feedback and don't send the coupons regular mail if he/she has questionable feedback. It is too easy for a buyer to claim "not received" and get a refund--then you've given free coupons. Cancel the sale and try again or ship with signature confirmation if the sale price can handle it.
I've been considering selling my excess coupons on Ebay. Do you actually make a decent profit from it?

void judgment you are right like everything there is a mission... You must try to keep your head up... I not only sell coupons but I am a regular buyer... Buying coupons gives me the niche . On buying what I want and when the sales are available I work with reputable sellers that send coupons asap before my sales end... I have bought cereal boxes for $.40 a piece. I not only send coupons but I send extra coupons people are going to say wow this is a nice seller she sent me freebies. They will leave positive and say thank you...
