Here's a great suggestion from a Free Money Finance reader. It was left in response to my post titled Simple and Easy Money Saving Tip: Buy Coupons for Pennies on the Dollar where it was suggested you could save lots of money by buying coupons on eBay. The reader took it one step farther -- and turned it into a money making idea. His comment:
That is a great idea! Further, if you often find yourself with great coupons for products that you wouldn't use, you could collect them and sell them on eBay.
Good idea. I'm sure there's someone out there who's doing this and making a decent amount of extra income at it. If you have access to good value coupons on a regular basis and have the time and ability to do this, you might want to consider it as a side business. It could turn out to be a good amount of extra income in your pocket each month.




Just as a side note, I don't think you can sell the "coupons" on e-bay, but you can sell "the value of your time for collecting the coupons".
I think there was some legal trouble with this issue a while back, but I can't seem to find the source.
I hope this helps.
