Is It Too Soon?

to sell Christmas gifts that were received last year? My kids have several toys that they have only played with once or twice and are now in my way. Can I sell these and be done with them?

There is a huge consignment sale coming up and I would like to get rid of them if possible. I honestly think they will not be missed.

What can I do next?

nope not too soon. If they aren't being used and in the way I would. Atleast you held on to them for 9 months, time to make room for the new ones that will be coming in, in a few months.

Tradition in my home is purge toys to get new ones. The kids participate in selecting the toys they would love to gift to another through selling them or just giving them away. I say go for it.

You can do whatever you want with what belongs to you! What's this "too early" stuff? :) If it doesn't belong in your house, GET RID OF IT. That's my motto...and I try to live by it as much as I can because being a stay at home mom and a homeschooler, we already have too much stuff we "need."

Why not? Christmas was over 8 months ago. No point in holding onto clutter.
