I’m a huge believer in purchasing items second hand. At one my point in my life, I even owned a children’s consignment store).

Recently I was introduced to Tradyo, which allows you to buy and sell locally, and communicate via in-app chat engine. I really think that this chat engine is a cool feature!!  Users can  also set alerts for the items they are looking for and set the distance they are will to travel to get the item.  #loveit.

Even better? Tradyo has one of the first VIDEO listings tool. Users can make 15-second video ads, demonstrating the usability and quality, of the items want to sell.

Seriously, Tradyo has thought of everything.

They even have an app for iPhone and Android users (that’s your cue to go download the app now).

I don’t know about you but I’ve got probably a dozen items that I could post at the moment. Stuff that’s just sitting around that I’m not using and just taking up space. Know what I mean?

For example, my Tassimo hasn’t been used in years.

This glass tea pot that I bought on the Shopping Channel a decade ago (total impulse buy) hasn’t been used in years either. In fact I’m pretty sure I only used it once.

NewsFlash: You will get a guaranteed $25 Starbucks gift card if you post 10 items or more with #momwhoruns. Just post your items on Tradyo and place the hashtag where indicated. (see image below)

This is my first blog post in 2012 and I thought it would only be appropriate to start off the New Year with a “challenge”.

Most challenges are about fitness and some are about food. I even read a blog post many years ago about a challenge to try a different beer for 365 days but this challenge is about SPENDING HABITS and COFFEE.

Like many of you, I drink coffee on a regular basis. But…I only drink it in a coffee shop. I never make it at home. NEVER. I haven’t owned a coffee maker since 1990. However all this has changed, when Tassimo sent me a coffee maker to try. When it arrived, I opened the box eagerly, read the manual (which is so unlike me) and started to make coffee. I even invited friends over for coffee and when I hosted a wine/cheese party, we all gathered round the Tassimo to watch the machine in action.

Needless to say: I am thrilled with my Tassimo. I am so happy that I am going to challenge myself to only drink coffee at home for the month of January. I am determined to save $$ (at least 50 dollars) and I’m determined to embrace my Tassimo.

Enjoying a coffee AT HOME!!

What do you think? Even better…who wants to join me on this challenge?

Disclosure: I received the Tassimo, but was under no pressure to blog about it. The opinions in this blog entry are my own.
