I sold a large portion of my health and beauty stockpile at a yard sale over labor day weekend. I had $691.10 in my pocket by the end of the day.
Absolutely!
Nah.
I'll Never Tell!
Normally I donate my stockpile or friends & family come by and shop in my pantry.
Last weekend, I needed to pay some bills and had a big stockpile sale. It was a success. Bills paid. Lots of people blessed with cheap stuff.

I donate my excess stuff. There is a food pantry in a church nearby that always has a sign up saying "Our pantry is empty, please come back next week" and it makes me want to give them free food, as much as I can.

I donate to family, friends, local food bank and humane society. Life is too crazy to think about selling it on e-bay.

One answer should be "not yet... but wondering what to do with all this STUFF!"
I'm making up Holiday baskets full of goodies for family and friends... but I wouldn't mind selling at a yard sale if I thought things would sell.

I too have thought about a yard sale. Maybe in the spring if I collect a lot during the winter. I joined HCW in July, so I know things are just beginning for me!
With the cost of shipping, I don't think ebay would be worth the time for most of my things.
Married since '01 to my Joe, and Finally, Finally Mommy to 3!Daughters, ages 5 and 2, and our son, age 1. Back home with us August 2011 after an attempted adoption August 2010. So thankful!
The yard sale idea seems great-- If only I had a yard. I just started at HCW and stockpiling so I don't have extras to sell. I would probabably give them away, though. If I was in a pinch and had to sell, I'd probably try Craigslist which is free to post.
I got like 18 bottles of Bullseye BBQ sauce for free with coupons, realized I didn't like it, sold it on a local message board for $14, no eBay though...
