Dear {NAME},
Guess what, it's Saturday!
I felt like I needed to tell you that, mainly because I keep asking myself what day of the week it is all the time right now. Have you been doing this too, or is it just me?
With it being Saturday and since spring is in the air, it feels like the time for garage sales and yard sales. But then I remember right now, we're all supposed to stay inside, and not congregate, so nix on the garage sales right now. So I debated whether to share this article below with you.
However, since many of us are still decluttering regularly right now, we might be accumulating quite a pile of stuff that we need to get out of our homes in one form or another, eventually, and one way is to have a sale.
Therefore, think of these tips below as helping you prepare for later, when we can have these sales again, so you're ready and make the process as easy for yourself as possible (plus decide whether a sale is even the best way for you to get rid of your clutter, because sometimes it is, and sometimes it's not!)
But before we get into today's tips and articles, make sure you check out these [3 freebies my family is using right now, while we're staying home]( if you haven't already. They're a great way to spend some free time, or take your mind off things, for you and your kids, that have some learning or skill building involved.

Garage & Yard Sales Strategies & Tips {To Use When Again Appropriate}
As you declutter your home you're going to find all kinds of things that you don't want but that other people do. You can donate, but another option is to get rid of your clutter, and make some cash at the same time, at a garage or yard sale.
I do know that right now, with our social distancing efforts, it can be difficult to actually get the clutter out of your home in any way, donation or sale, and so do not think I'm promoting having a garage or yard sale right this moment.
But we all also know that eventually we will again be able to give donations, or to have garage and yard sales, and if you are decluttering your house right now, it may be the right time to prepare for that sale that eventually will occur.
Of course, garage or yard sales are not for everyone. Sometimes they're a way to postpone actually getting rid of your clutter because you know, deep down, you'll never actually have the sale, and these sales can be a lot of hard work. So check out this article with tips for these sales, and to determine if doing one some time in the future might be right for you, or not.

How To Get A Text Each Morning Telling You What To Declutter That Day
{Use Promo Code SPRING2020 For $9 Off Rest Of Year}
[How to get a text each morning telling you what to declutter that day](
How is decluttering your home going?
At the beginning of this year you decided that you wanted to get your home decluttered, and you were going to follow the Declutter 365 daily missions to get it done.
If you've been following the plan you know it's very simple, but effective. Each day you're given one task that you work on for 15 minutes (or longer, but only if you wish to), that will help you slowly, but surely, remove clutter from your home while developing the habits and routines to keep your home clutter free, from now on.
Of course, before you can do the day's task, you've got to remember and be reminded of the day's task! And sometimes, this can be a stumbling block.
That's why I wanted to do something to help everyone remember what the day's task is, and it came to me -- [text messages](
Many of us carry around our phone everywhere, and when we hear that little ding signaling an incoming text we glance down and read what's been sent. It's already a habit for us. So why not use that habit to our advantage?
Each morning, at 8:00 a.m. EST, approximately, I send out a text telling you exactly what you should declutter and work on, in your home, that day. You hear the ding on your phone once the text is received, you read the message, and then you can plan how you'll get that task done sometime during the day! Simple, and yet quite effective.
And right now I've got a sale on the Declutter 365 text messages for $9 off the rest of the year, when you use promo code SPRING2020 at checkout.
That means this is the lowest price I've ever offered these texts!
Please note that these texts are available only for U.S. based mobile phone numbers. Do not purchase these texts if you have an international number.
Make sure to use promo code SPRING2020 at checkout, for $9 off the rest of the year!
