My Experience with Twice

We are cleaning house.  Getting rid of the stuff we don't need/use anymore that is cluttering up our minds and spaces.  When we decide to declutter the first place that I typically start is my closet.  I am a huge fan of Hilary and her blog and YouTube channel My So-Called Home.  In one of her recent videos she highlighted a website called Twice Clothing.  It is a second-hand clothing retailer that buys and sells your name brand, rather new and in good condition clothing and resells them, boutique-style on their website. They pay for you to ship your clothes to them, they evaluate the quality and email you a price quote.  You can accept that quote at face value and they will cut you a check and you can be happy with your newly purged, thinner closet and fatter wallet, or you can accept store credit which is 25% more than the quoted price.  Great way to fill in the gaps in that closet!

I had about 15 items that I sent to Twice for evaluation.  The items need to be of a current style, in good condition and purchased within the last five years.  I wish I took pictures of the items I sent in.  I am kicking myself now.  I seriously didn't think that I would make a lot of money on clothing that I was going to throw in a clothing recycle bin.  I found a box I had lying around and I threw, well, folded and placed nicely inside, all my items and stuck the prepaid postage sticker that Twice emailed me on the top. I took that bad boy to the post office on my corner and was finished with my part.  About a week and a half later I got my quote that they would write me a check for $59!  I was thrilled!  I chose to just take the check, this time at least.  I will definitely be going back to Twice in the future when I decide to thin out my closet again.  It really was super easy and dare I say, a fun way to make a few bucks!
