Date Ideas in Your Hometown

A little while back, Associated Content had an assignment for its writers: Places to go for a date in your hometown. I wrote about a few places that a couple could go in my hometown... 

While there may not be big well known steak houses or movie theaters, the town that I live in offers a unique view of history with a little bit of fun. A couple would have to have an admiration for crafts, antiques, some history and a love for peaceful small towns. Quaint small towns are still able to bring some romance for a date-you don't always have to visit the city. 

In a rural town like I live in ,you hear the clacking of the hooves of horse and buggies, the smell of country Amish food and stores that feature handmade crafts from local craftsmen as well as antiques too.

If you would like to know about some of the things that you can do on a date in the area that I live in, you can enjoy reading my mini date guide.

Selling Online for $$$$

For those wanting to make some extra cash or need a way to make extra income because of unemployment, they may look to selling items online. The internet provides us with many opportunities and websites for us to sell crafts, gently used clothing, trinkets, antiques, and more.

One popular website that almost everybody has heard of by now is of course Ebay... Ebay has millions of visitors each month, and it is a very easy to get our items "out there." Although, there have been other websites who have tried to compete with their prices and numbers of visitors---yet none have won--just yet--

One fairly new website coming onto the horizon is Bonanzle.com. It is currently building its community of both buyers and sellers. While it is a very tight-knit community, it still is building up its traffic each month. Prices to sell our reasonable-much more affordable than its auction giant, Ebay.  Also, sellers do not pay for their listings --until that item sells. And the most anybody will every pay for their listings is $10--when an item sells for $1000+ .

I decided to compare both Ebay and Bonanzle together and wrote an informative article for anyone interested in selling their items there... If you are new to selling on the internet, and looking to save a few bucks-Bonanzle could be a great starting point for you before heading over to Ebay--It's also a great way to keep a few dollars in your pocket as well.  Feel free to read more about here...
