How to make money by flipping creative items for profit
Do you like visiting flea markets, thrift stores, yard sales, or auctions? Do you love finding great deals on brand name items?
What if I said you could turn this hobby into something VERY profitable? Something that could make you a great side income to fill the gaps in your finances – or even a full time income if you decide you love it?
Flipping creative items for profit has turned into our main income source over the last couple of years and I want to show how you can do the same for your family!
If you would have told me 11 years ago that you could sell used items online for an income, I probably would have laughed at you.
As a kid, my family visited second hand stores sometimes to find furniture or decorations for our house, but we had never thought to make money with some of our discounted items.
Then in 2006 I met my husband Rob. He was a different kind of guy in that he thought outside the box. He didn’t have a traditional job – he told me he bought and sold used items on eBay.
I thought it was a little strange, but I couldn’t really say anything because I worked as a horse rider at a dinner show at the time. He actually made WAY MORE money than I did per month – and just by selling and flipping creative items for profit from the flea market and thrift store.
How was that even possible?
Fast forward to present day. We are married with 3 little kids, and this is our PRIMARY source of income at the moment.
Again, if you would have told me this before, I would have probably laughed, but it can seriously be a money maker if you let it.
Maybe you aren’t looking for a career change, but you might be in the market for something that could be adding to your savings account and/or vacation fund. Or maybe you are wanting to pay ALL the bills each month- not just some of them.

Buying flea market, thrift store, and yard sale items at a low cost, and flipping them for a profit is something that we have been doing for years now.

You may be asking if it’s hard to get started flipping items from the flea market
Well, it’s really not tough at all.
You need access to a good flea market or good thrift stores, or have a good “offer up” network or even have a lot of great yard sales in your area. If you have any one of the above you could do awesome with this side hustle of flipping creative items for profit.
Robbie’s favorite resource is the flea market, while mine is yard sales or offer up. You have to find what works best for you and run with it.
