If you have other items that you would like to get rid of, then having a yard sale may be the best option for selling your bridesmaid dress. Choose a day (or a couple of days) to have your sale and set up a little shop in your front yard or garage. You could even band together with your neighbors and plan to have yard sales on the same days to increase the number of people who stop by. Post large, easy to read signs directing people to the sale as well.  Mention the dress in ads or signs that you use to promote your yard sale. Display your bridesmaid dress where people will see it. Hang it on the front of a rack or put it on a dress form if you have one. Be prepared to haggle. You may want to put a slightly higher price on the dress than you want. For example, if you would like to get $75 for the dress, then put $95 on it. Then, if someone asks if you’d be willing to take less, you can let them know you’d be willing to go as low as $75. Some smaller bridal shops may purchase and resell used bridesmaid dresses for more than you might get at a for-profit thrift shop. Check with bridal shops in your area to see if they do this. You will likely have to go to the shop with your dress to find out how much they might be willing to pay for it. Try calling and saying, “I have a bridesmaid dress that I only wore 1 time. Do you purchase used dresses that are in good condition?” Some for-profit thrift shops will buy used clothing. Check with thrift shops in your area to see if any of them buy used clothing. If you find one that does, take your dress in and see what they would be willing to pay you for it.  Keep in mind that you do not need to sell your dress if you don’t like the price they are willing to pay. Some thrift stores may give you more if you accept store credit than if you take cash. If you need some new clothes, then you may be able to exchange your bridesmaid dress for some nice gently used items. Your friends and family may know someone who is in need of a bridesmaid dress and who would be willing to buy your dress. Let people know that you have a bridesmaid dress for sale and ask them to tell anyone they think might be interested.

Problem: Article: Once you've figured out what words challenge you, you need to make a plan for how you will move through your list in a limited amount of time. You need to make a plan so that you can cover all of your words quickly at least 3 times. Preferably, you want to cover tougher words 4 or 5 times (or until you're comfortable with those words). Consider a few things:  Your limited amount of time. Days you might be too busy to study. Periodic tests and quizzes. Extra time for extra challenging words. Find yourself a good dictionary and some websites that will help you study. Your dictionary is going to be your most important study resource, so it should be one that you are comfortable using. In addition, websites will make studying a bit more fun, and perhaps easier.  Dictionaries can be bought at pretty much any book store, but make sure to get one that is recommended and/or approved by your spelling bee organization. A good dictionary will show a word's root, phonetic spelling, common usage, and even origin. Oxford is a good choice, but Merriam-Webster's is the official choice of the Scripps National Spelling Bee, and many smaller spelling bee organizations also recommend it. Vocabulary.com has a very helpful word list building tool. See it at https://www.vocabulary.com/lists/vocabgrabber  Take a look at Merriam-Webster's Word Central at http://www.wordcentral.com/. If you are a younger spelling bee competitor, you can play games and build your own dictionary of tough words! Make sure to get a notebook in order to store your word lists and the paper that you'll be writing on when studying. A good organized notebook with your main word list, lists of challenging words, notes, definitions, and more, will be critical to your success.
Summary:
Make a plan. Get yourself a dictionary and find helpful websites. Get yourself other materials to help study and prepare.
