In Search of the Illusive Dollar

Lately, I have been obsessing over money matters - probably because I do not have a job.  Finding a job in Michigan is like striking gold in Wisconsin.  So, I have put my creative thinking cap on and have discovered the wonderful world of resale.

• Plato's Closet - resale your lightly worn, junior-sized clothing that is no more than 2 years old. 
• Red Swan - if your diamond collection is weighing you down, sell your jewelry to Red Swan.  Then make commission when you help your friends unload their gems.
• Yoogi's Closet - unload your Prada bag or scour the site for great deals on designer items.
• Gazelle - exchange your old cellphone, ipod, or laptop for the almighty dollar.
