Success, I'd say!

I can't believe Christmas is over. This whole school year is flying by. Overall, I'm pleased with how my eBay selling went for the holidays. I managed to get a decent amount of things listed. My inventory is still overflowing, but what I listed and sold was manageable.

NWT NEW ST. JOHN'S BAY BIG MENS SWEATER XLT X LARGE TALL DARK GRAY JC PENNEY
Sold for $19.99, paid 19 cents! (Salvation Army- having a sale one day- no clue why this gem was mixed in!)

So overall, success I'd say! One of my goals for the new year is to do a better job keeping track of my costs. I have a bad habit of buying and then stashing my inventory in either... the crawl space... the garage... the trunk of my car... and losing my receipts. A lot of my items have tags left on, but then I can never remember if I paid that price or if I picked up the item on half-price day. So I'm going to force myself to write down how much I paid for each individual item as soon as I get home. 

Oh and guess what? I'm going to Times Square for NYE! I am nervous about the crowds... but it's a bucket list opportunity so I had to jump at the chance.
