Martin Lewis has revealed how people could earn thousands by simply clearing out their house over Easter.
The Money Saving Expert said that people could be making money from things lying around their home.
He explained how to do it in his latest Money Saving Expert newsletter, as people may be at a loose end this weekend.
Martin said: "If you've spare time this long weekend, why not do a personal stock clearance?
"With what you find, ask yourself: "Have I used it since last Easter?"
"Our usual rule is to consider flogging anything unused in a year, but now, given the restrictions, you get a pass on stuff such as suitcases, ball gowns or fancy china.
"However, we bet most can still make cash from their attic."
Selling things on eBay could earn you thousands with Martin pointing to the example of Fiona who earned over £1,000 in three months by selling clothes, candles, toys and computer games.
Facebook is also another good place to sell items, with one user getting £500 after selling their kitchen on the social network site.
Gadget trade-in sites can also get you some extra cash, Martin's team found one sure that would pay £199 for a 64GB iPhone X.

And if you want to donate items to charity instead this is still available despite stores being closed.
Martin said: "You may prefer to give unwanted items to a worthy cause.
"While charity shops are still closed, you can often donate old clothes, jewellery and more for free by post to the likes of British Heart Foundation and Cancer Research."
