Proof That You Can Sell Just About Anything
We just sold two coupons from an area restaurant. Travis and I combined the coupons to make the offer more tempting. Sold the coupons for $10. No cost of investment because the coupons were sent to us in the mail (for free).

We've also got a little piece of real estate for sale. Check out the picture to the right. Property located in Mesa, Arizona.
Found some deals on the web
Told Ron about a website called www.dealigg.com which has sales, coupons, rebates, and free offers that are posted by users and updated every day. Very cool site for those doublers out there looking for deals. Ron and I are still in the "get free software using rebates and sell it for a profit" phase of our strategy. Trav out

Audit Complete
Took us a couple of hours, but we completed the full audit while listening to Red Hot Chilis...a few songs were not so good on that Hits album. So, we have reached a new milestone at $172.43, but cash on hand is $88.06 due to some investments and mail-in rebate strategies that are underway. Ron and Trav
Lots of Activity
Okay, so it's been a while since I posted. I had to search for my username and password to access today...my lack of posts are no indication of my commitment...I'm always hunting for our next opportunity. Anyway, I've been creating an offical spreadsheet for Common Currentsea accounts and I have a few things to report. I returned a Christmas gift which netted $9.95 and also got a friend to give me his old motorcycle jacket so that I could sell it ($22.01 and after expenses, made $14.32). Also, as Ron indicated, we have a lot going on with software and rebates right now...will report on that activity once the sales have completed.

Found A Buck
Found one buck today. It's no longer lost. It's new home is Common Currentsea.
I have no idea what my total is right now, nor do I know the total for Common Currentsea. Travis and I will meet this weekend to reconcile. Several auctions have ended and several purchases have been made. We'll update as soon we can meet.

Sold The Employer's Guide
The sale was a surprise to me. I didn't know if any one really cared enough to bid on the book. However, there were three bids on the book. The guide sold for $12.50 plus shipping and handling. I think it's funny that the same guide is selling on ebay right now for $99. Somebody's going to be sitting on that thing for a while. I just ruined the market. Then again, supply always meets demand. And right now, the demand justifies a $17 expenditure for someone. Anyway, here's the final auction details.
I profited $11.55 from the auction (after all expenses). That brings my total to $43.68.
Common Currentsea's pot just moved to $93.15. More auctions ending this week. More auctions to start this week.

Audit Complete
The results are in. The combined pot total for Common Currentsea is $81.60.
We have several eBay auctions underway. However, the cost for each auction is near zero since each item cost us nothing. In addition, we're sitting on a pair of Ralph Lauren swimming trunks purchased for just over $7. The trunks have a retail value of $45. We'll place the trunks on eBay sometime in April.
This time next week should see the pot expanded by about 40%-50%.

More Free Stuff To Auction
We've got several Quickbooks Credit Card Processing Kits ready to be sold on eBay. Check out our first auction below. Worst case, we lose the listing fee since the software cost us nothing. After it's all said and done, we'll tell you how we got the free stuff.

Lost Quarter
A lost quarter found its way into my pocket. My current total is $32.13. Travis and I will be conducting an audit later today to determine the total pot.

Cross Your Fingers
This book was given to me free. So the only cost incurred is the 75 cents listing fee. Cross your fingers. Not sure what kind of demand it will have.
The 2006 Florida Employer's Guide
Update
First off, I found another penny. That makes my total $31.88.
Secondly, we've got a lot of things on the burner. After meeting with Travis, I found out that he used $5 to purchase some close-outs at an office supply store. His $5 investment has the potential to turn into $15. We'll no more later in the week once the auctions end.
So that left us with $81.88 exactly. We then used just over $7 to purchase some name brand swimming trunks. Based on our research, we should be able to sell the trunks for at least $15. Unfortunately, we'll need to wait a few weeks so that the weather can get people's attention turned from snow to sun.
Next, we've got some close-out diet pills that should work out real good for us. We haven't started that auction, but we should later this week. It's possible that we'll return more than 50% on these diet pills.
And finally, we both found some free stuff to sell. And both of those items will be posted to eBay later this week.
Exciting times. If all works as planned, we could more than double our stake within the next 10 days.
Stay tuned.
