Learned About The Phoenix Sports Leagues

03/23/2010

I read an ad in the paper for the Phoenix sports leagues and decided to jump online to check it out. I saw that they have a Scottsdale sand volleyball league and that interested me quite a bit. I played volleyball a lot when I was a teenager and then when I went to college, I joined a group that played sand volleyball every weekend. I had so much fun playing, that I really missed it when I graduated and had to move back home.

I sent the Phoenix sports leagues and email, expressing my interest in the Scottsdale sand volleyball league. They responded almost immediately and told me that they were going to be closing the registration in a few days and if I wanted to join, then I should either sign up online or come in and fill out all the necessary paperwork.

I decided to investigate just a little further and see if anyone else that I knew had ever played on a league like this, or any of the others that the Phoenix sports leagues offered. I was happy to find three different people at work that have also joined the sand volleyball league, so I signed up online and made it official.

Selling My Old Gold Jewelry Online

03/01/2010

I have been selling gold jewelry that my ex husband bought for me when we were married. I do not ever plan on wearing it again, but I can at least take the money it nets me and try and pay off the credit card bills, the house payment and the car payments that he left me with.

I thought about selling gold jewelry to the pawn shop or the local jewelry store that buys and sells, but then I might run into someone walking around town wearing some of my old pieces. I think that would be weird, so the internet it is.

I read that if you sell gold online you should be able to get about thirty percent more than if you sold it to a local store. The reason being, the local guy has too much overhead and then they are only going to give you about half of what it is worth so they can turn a profit too. If you sell gold online, you can ask the fair market value of it since you will be cutting out the middle man and going directly to the public. If I am lucky, when all the jewelry is gone and I collect all the money, hopefully I will feel better about the divorce.
