By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A peer-to-peer luxury clothing and accessory rental service called Pickle is enabling individuals, particularly women in New York City, to earn significant income by renting out their personal items. One user, Kat Friday, has generated approximately $7,000 per month by renting out clothing and even a camera, while another user reportedly earned $30,000 in a single month. Founded in 2021 by Brian McMahon and Julia O’Mara, Pickle operates similarly to an Airbnb for possessions, allowing users to rent items for a fraction of their retail cost and has expanded its services nationwide.
