Hi, I’m Arlene.

Welcome to From Pennies to Plenty!

How it started

Back in 2015, I wanted to host a spring clothing swap, but everyone I invited already had plans or could only attend for part of the time. The clothes I wanted to swap were still in style and in great condition, so I didn't want to donate them. 

I listed a few of the clothes for sale online and made some sales soon after. I was hooked! Once I ran out of my own clothes to sell, I started finding items to sell at local thrift stores and selling for my friends and family. 

I was making extra money selling second-hand goods and absolutely loved it. I realized then that I could help others as much as I help myself. 

I’ve since sold thousands of items and made thousands of dollars selling online. I also started From Pennies to Plenty to share my thoughts and tips on reselling online and others everyday ways to make and save money. 

Do you want to get started reselling?

Take a look around, let me know if you have questions, and good luck with your selling!
