We had a garage sale/yard sale/tag sale earlier this month and made $510 (American) for our shelter. Do you have stuff to sell? Books, CD's, videos, DVD's, household goods? Maybe a couple of you could go in together and clean house and sell anything you don't want or need anymore.

At our sale, all the "girly" things sold very quickly... soaps, shampoos, lotions, jewelry but women's clothes did not sell at all.
