Make Mother’s Day Easy with eBay

My sister-in-law is an eBay fiend.
Every time you compliment her on something she's wearing she says, “Thanks! I got it on eBay.”
I occasionally shop on eBay myself, although I sell a lot more than I shop.
The thing I love about selling on eBay is that I can get rid of my junk and put a little money into my PayPal account at the same time. Then when I do have something for which I want to shop, I don't feel like I actually have to pay for it since the money was just sitting there in my PayPal account anyway.
This Mother's Day I'd love to re-do the bedding in the master bedroom. We've had the same bedding since we got married almost 8 years ago, and while I'm not necessarily tired of it, it does need to be updated just because it is getting a little ragged.
Both sets of sheets are ripped and the comforter is stained.
I love getting those bed in a bag sets because my shopping time is limited, and I'd rather just buy everything all in one shot and be done with it. Plus, I feel like it also ends up being cheaper than buying everything individually.
For instance, just a quick look on eBay shows that there are plenty of complete sets for $50-$70ish including shipping.
I love the fact that I can find what I'm looking for at comparable or cheaper prices than just getting something from Walmart or Target (which I don't really have the time to do anyway as a busy mom.)
And if I want, I can even lounge in bed and shop since there is a new and improved eBay app for all types of smart phones. It's totally free and can be found in whatever app store you use.
The bigger pictures and wider variety of search refinement options make it a cinch to shop from your phone.
I may just go ahead and get myself that new bedding set for Mother's Day!
