      Cleaning out your closet is a great way to get rid of clutter, but it can also be a way to make some extra spending money or save on future purchases. While you aren't likely to recoup your entire purchase price, many gently-used items can be resold either online or in person. Instead of selling, you may also be able to save by trading items with friends or donating them to a charitable organization.
