Tip: If you often visit the local libraries, don’t forget to scan through the books for sale in the lobbies of those libraries. You’ll be surprise how often you’re able to spot books of  high resale value for pennies.

Selling used books online  is a great way for anyone regardless of experience to pick up extra cash. Now I taught my two teenagers (13 and 15 years old) the same method to earn at least $25  per week from selling used books online in their spare time. At an average of $1-2 net profit per book, it doesn’t take many books to earn $25 per weekend.

Now if they want to buy something, my kids know better than to ask me for an allowance   They just hustle more books at the next book sale.
