This may take a couple weekends but it will get you decluttered and organized. Things of significant value can be sold on Ebay, Craigslist or Half.com. I wouldn't recommend it for smaller stuff because once shipping is factored in the buyers won't consider it such a great deal and you will have had to pay the listing fees and deal with the hassle. Everything else you can freecycle (www.freecycle.org) or donate to charity. To stay frugal when you look at getting new stuff make sure you really need it not just want and then look on ebay, craigslist, freecycle, and thrift stores. You would be amazed at what you can find at really great prices. And the effort involved will probably dissuade impulse buying. A great source for cheap books is half.com or you could always just use your library. I use Amazon.com to read reviews on books and then I check them out at my local library. It works great.
