Think high school senior portraits or family photos for Christmas cards. I shop at thrift stores frequently and I am always amazed at how much I see with store tags still on the product. But that store credit is much better than sending it to the thrift store as a donation. Can you teach piano lessons? Consider tutoring.

If you are in more of a hurry, find a thrift store instead. Expect to pay a bit more in a thrift store, but if it is run by a charitable organization, you can feel good about paying a few bucks more because you are helping out the cause. Garage sales and thrift stores are great places to find books and DVDs. Books and DVDs.
