Years ago, Mom introduced me to the idea of going to garage sales. People sell the darnedest things at their garage sales. Garage sales take time, you have to hit quite a few before you find the item you want or need. Finding a new purpose for an old item is one of the joys of finding bargains at garage sales.

There are three parking garages (Orange Garage, Lime Garage, and Grapefruit Garage) and several surface parking lots. Here is what was found, but I suggest calling Guest Services or asking a Cast Member beforehand: Near the entrance of the Orange Garage from 10:00 AM to 2:00 AM. Parking at Disney Springs.

Give a Photo Session. If you have the knack for your DSLR, a photo session would be a perfect idea for new parents, soon-to-be high school or college graduates, or a family portrait. If so, give the gift of organizing a closet (or 2), kitchen cupboards, a basement, garage, etc. And finally, #30: Make a coupon book.

I already had saved up a box full of wine bottles, in hopes of selling them at my next garage sale, so we didn’t have any cash outlay for those. To start, I made a sample bottle as proof of concept using images printed on matte photo paper. 10 White matte photo paper No cost (had on hand). Tax on paper $0.78.

I took at least three trunks full of “stuff” to Goodwill, I had a garage sale, and I sold things online. I’ve taken pictures of my son’s favorite preschool paintings and drawings, and when I see a good deal on photo books, I’m going to create one for him and toss the originals.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) says passive income can come from two sources : rental property or a business in which one does not actively participate, such as being paid book royalties or stock dividends. E-books can be relatively short, perhaps 30-50 pages, and can be relatively cheap to create, since they rely on your own expertise.

Whether you are browsing at a local thrift shop, flea market, garage sale, or just perusing your own garage or basement, we all seem to have an abundance of them! Using clothespins, you can now clip photos, recipes, etc. Paint the frame and add a piece of colorful scrap book paper where the picture would go.
