The crazy, hectic holiday season is finally over. Yankee Peddler and Pawn is your one stop destination to get rid of all of those unwanted gifts and gain some extra cash after the holidays. It’s the perfect time to start your New Year’s resolution of living a clutter free life! Here are a few ways to help fulfill that New Year’s goal.
1: Plan Plan Plan
Staying organized isn’t always an easy task, with balancing work, school, children, family, friends and whatever else life throws your way it is easy to get unorganized fast! We recommend using a planner or the calendar application in your phone to keep everything in order. Block out time for cleaning, working, free time and of course…more planning!
2: Purge When Needed
Clutter can build up fast, especially if you live with more than just yourself! Take time to go through that clutter as often as you need to. You can even make back some of that money by coming and visiting us at Yankee Peddler and Pawn! We’re here to help you achieve your New Year’s goal by purchasing your unwanted items and gold.
3: Make Time For Yourself
It is super important to make time for yourself. We often forget to treat ourselves because our schedules are so hectic! Self care is crucial if you want to stay organized. When you’re a mess, usually your home is a mess! Your health is also often impacted by stress and organization and by staying organized you can eliminate some of that stress and ultimately stay healthier!
4: Make A To-Do List
Making a To-Do list will help you remember what tasks you need to accomplish throughout your day. First start by jotting down everything you want to do for the day. Then prioritize! This is where you really see how much you can pack into your day and complete what needs to be accomplished. For example, cleaning out your closet might be number one on your list so you can get over to Yankee Peddler and Pawn to sell some stuff before they close for the day!
5: Put It Away
What typically happens after a long day is you throw everything down, hop in your comfy clothes and become a couch potato for the rest of the evening. Tip: DO NOT DO THAT. Making sure everything has a good home and is put back in that home after you’re done with it will help you stay organized, clean and limit the amount of times you lose things!
To stay organized and clutter free follow these 5 tips and you’ll be on the path to success! Don’t forget that your friends at Yankee Peddler and Pawn are here to help you eliminate the clutter and ultimately put cash back in your pocket. Contact us for more information!
We’ve got your pot of gold at YPP!
Did you know, the price of gold is at a general all-time high since the financial crisis of 2008? In response to the crisis, gold hit a whopping $1,895 an ounce in September 2011… crazy huh? Regardless of the price of gold, it will always remain extremely valuable in society simply because it has for over 3,000 years already.
Now, gold isn’t valuable just because it is shiny and makes your girlfriend really happy (although those would be valid reasons). Instead, gold is valuable because of its chemical properties, its timeless appeal, its long term store of value, and the fact it has no counterparty risks. Basically what all this means is that gold is very hard to be destroyed, it is aesthetically pleasing, and its value cannot fall to zero. Would you agree these all seem like great reasons to invest in some gold? Now, we’re not expecting you to get out there, get your leprechaun game on and attempt to find a pot of gold under some illusionary rainbow, because we’ve already done all that for you.
Yankee Peddler and Pawn is feeling luckier than ever this March due to our wide selection of gold we have here for our customers, you guys! Our inventory is spread across our three locations in Groton, East Hartford and New London, and consists of pieces from name brands like Tiffany & Co., Michael Kors and Rolex. Every piece of jewelry has been appraised by our own professional leprechauns. So stop in today, you never know what you’ll find!

Your “One Stop Shop” for the Holidays
The holidays are finally upon us and we couldn’t be more excited. The weather is finally starting to feel like winter, the holiday decorations and lights are starting to illuminate the streets, and the holiday flavors and scents are starting to fill the air. I think it is finally time when you can listen to Christmas music with no shame. You don’t have to hear people complain, “What about Thanksgiving? It’s too early for Christmas”. Thanksgiving is over and everyone is now in full acceptance that the holidays are here. This begs to ask the question; have you finished your holiday shopping yet?
This time of year is all about giving and sharing moments with the ones you love most. Unfortunately, the giving season always brings out two kinds of people. First are the ones who have already finished their holiday shopping and have been done for a while. The ones that plan ahead and buy gifts throughout the year. In our opinion, the smarter and less stressed of the two. And second are the ones who most likely haven’t gotten anything for anyone yet. The ones who are going to panic in a few weeks when there are only a few days to spare. The ones who apparently like having the challenge of a deadline.
To those of you that waited until now, there is no need to panic. Here at Yankee Peddler & Pawn, we have everything you need to finish up your holiday shopping. We carry video games and consoles for the gamer in your life. We have cameras, drones, and instruments for the artistic one in your life. Our instruments have been brands such as Fender, Pearl, and Yamaha, to name a few. We have electronics like TV’s, phones, and computers for the techy in your life. And we have jewelry for the love of your life. We have carried brands like Rolex, Seiko, Tiffany & Co., Michael Kors, and Pandora. We are always getting in new items, so our inventory is constantly changing. Yankee Peddler & Pawn has something for everybody, no matter who you’re shopping for.
If you need to make room for new gifts coming your way or need some extra cash to finish up your shopping, bring in your gently used items to Yankee Peddler & Pawn and we will give you cash, fast. We value our customers and always present them with the best deal for their item. We buy items like broken or unwanted jewelry, tools, electronics, collectibles, and more. With over 20 years in the gold buying business, we can guarantee a simple and convenient process when selling your gold. We can quickly and accurately present you with competitive prices for your items, whether they are rings, coins, or jewelry. Don’t be taken advantage of at other places! The price of gold is at an all-time high, we guarantee to offer you the most cash for your gold.
Don’t put yourself through the stresses of holiday shopping. Stay away from the pushy crowds and the long lines at the mall or department stores. Forget those big box retail stores with their hectic crowds and save money with us at Yankee Peddler & Pawn. We specialize in used instruments, power tools, and fine jewelry. Don’t put your trust in online shopping to hopefully arrive in time. You never know what problems might happen with holiday shipping. Come shop at Yankee Peddler & Pawn and get what you want, when you want it, and always at a great price.
If you don’t find what you’re looking for at one location, don’t worry. Check out one of our other locations, located in Groton, New London, or East Hartford.

Fall, Football, and Friendsgiving

It’s summertime! For a lot of people, that comes with a lot of hours alone playing video games on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, PC, and other gaming devices! But, as gamers know, it’s not easy indulging all your time into playing games when box stores and retailers are charging a whopping $60+ for new games!
As a gamer, you don’t want to be spending all your summer savings on new video games that you probably won’t play for more than a few months. Besides, you could use that extra cash to take your significant other out to a nice restaurant!
Purchasing affordable video games are a must since those retail prices can rack up very quickly! But don’t worry – we have a wide selection of used video games for almost every gaming system! We have Call of Duty, NBA 2k18, Assassins Creed, Madden, Mario Kart, and so much more! The best part is – all of our games are under $40! Saving even that extra $20 during the summer months can make a huge difference in your wallet!
You know what is even cooler? We have three locations in Connecticut for all of your gaming and electronic needs: Groton, New London, and East Hartford. If you don’t have to visit our three locations, we also sell some our video games on our eBay store!
Buying used video games will save you that extra cash you badly need. And who knows – saving all that extra cash means you have more to spend on a ton of other used items at Yankee Peddler and Pawn!
