Here's how it works:

  • Grab something you own and want to track.

  • Put a four-digit number on it with a pen, labeler, or whatever. (You might want to start with 0001).

  • Enter it into the website *

Or,

  • Send a text message to stuff@sgrcndy.com that says "new 0001" (where "0001" is the number of the item in question.) *

If you want to enter in more items, just add them on after item 0001, like this: "new 0001 0004 0002" etc. You check items "in", "out", and "gone" the same way - just send a message that says the command followed by the number of the item or items you want to check in, out, or gone. Like this:

in 0008 0006 0003
out 0005
gone 0001 0004

 
That's it!! Now you can use Own Your Stuff however you like. If you want to track when you get new stuff and get rid of old stuff, just enter in new items when you buy or receive them, and then enter in when you get rid of them.

If you want to get more intensive, (which is demanding but worth it), track every time you take something (or a class of something, like clothes, or sports gear, or whatever) out of a closet or garage or other storage space, and then track when you put it back in. Using Own Your Stuff in this way can be helpful in the short term especially, to give you an idea of how much you actually use your stuff.
