The woman, who regularly posts on her The Pink Parcel TikTok page, shared pictures in which she detailed the times she considers the "golden windows".
She also added that her time lists are "based on stats".
And it's good news if you're an early riser, as the first time slot is 7.30 to 9am on weekdays.
The next is 1pm to 2pm, and you should then wait until 6 to 9.30pm to list again.
It's important to spread out when you post your listings too, as she said: "List 3-4 items throughout the day so they keep showing up in the feed and don't get buried".
If you're more of a weekend lister, start at 10am on a Saturday and you can go until 1pm, while the next time is 4 to 7pm.
On a Sunday, list 10am to 12 midday, and 7 to 9pm.
"Best hours to post on Vinted," she wrote in the caption.
"I post in these golden windows," she added.
People were quick to comment on the picture slideshow, with one writing: "Sunday 4pm has worked the best for me!"
I've made £5.6k on Vinted and here are the 7 items you need to upload now to make cash quick - white maxi skirts will sell instantly for a start
"That's perfect," the TikToker replied.
"I find mostly if I list at the weekend that helps boost my sales - not by much but at least I can get some sales," another commented.
"I think last week I sold 25 things over 4 days. It doesn't sound like much but was happy to sell my stuff."
"Thank you for this," a third said.
As someone else added they were keen to try out the tip, as she's been struggling to sell her bits on Vinted.
"I've tried so many tips but just not getting many views," she wrote.
New Vinted rules to be aware of
IF you fancy clearing out your wardrobe and getting rid of your old stuff on Vinted, you'll need to consider the new rules that recently came into play.
If people are selling personal items for less than they paid new (which is generally the case for second-hand sales), there is no impact on tax.
However, since January 1, digital platforms, including eBay, Airbnb, Etsy, Amazon and Vinted, must share seller information with HMRC as part of a crackdown.
You're unlikely to be affected if you only sell a handful of second-hand items online each year - generally, only business sellers trading for profit might need to pay tax.
A tax-free allowance of £1,000 has been in place since 2017 for business sellers trading for profit - the only time that an individual personal item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is a profit from the sale.
However, firms now have to pass on your data to HMRC if you sell 30 or more items a year or earn over £1,700.
It is part of a wider tax crackdown to help ensure that those who boost their income via side hustles pay up what they owe.
While your data won't be shared with HMRC if you earn between £1,000 and £1,700, you'll still need to pay tax as normal.
"I have loads of new items with tags and cheap too - can't think of anything else to try and boost my views."
"I read somewhere rather than bumping your items, it's best to put your account in holiday mode," another said.
"Then a few hours later take the holiday mode off and your items will go automatically to the top of new listings.
"Don't know if this is true!"
To which The Pink Parcel woman replied: "I was in holiday mode but when I came back I had really little views.
"I will try again and tell you if it works."

Family favorite restaurant chain booming thanks to cracking deals… as industry struggles
It's been a terrible year for restaurants. But one major chain is bucking the industry's sour trend. Chili's, the Dallas-based Tex-Mex brand famous for baby back ribs and frozen margaritas, just posted a 24 percent jump in sales — serving millions more customers than last year. That's on top of a big increase in 2023, meaning the chain's sales have soared 39 percent over the past two years. Chili's has now logged five straight quarters of growth. It is a rare bright spot in an industry where many chains report diners are eating out less and cooking at home to save money. Chili's says it's attracting shoppers through its doors by focusing on young restaurant-goers and keeping prices low. The 1,200-store chain says its $10.99 three-plate value is one of its biggest attractions. It also pointed to a $14.39 burger and fries meal that targets ultra-low-cost establishments like Burger King and McDonald's. 'Chili's has been on fire lately and has been significantly boosting traffic to its restaurants,' Neil Saunders, head of retail at GlobalData, told 'There are a whole host of reasons for the success including improved menus and product quality, strong social media activity, and winning over younger diners.' Chili's is also helped by the fact it is good value for money, so it's an affordable indulgence for many Americans who are still feeling pinched by inflation, he said. Hochman, who took over the top role in 2022, simplified the Chili's menu and upgraded its french fry and chicken tender — or chicken 'crisper' — recipes. Brinker International spent more than $400 million on the new menu, plus adding more servers and upgrading outdated restaurants. Now, the menu focuses on four core offerings: burgers, chicken crispers, fajitas and margaritas. Instead of upping prices, the chain, which has over 1,000 locations across the US, offered deals including $6 margaritas and a $10.99 'Big Smasher' burger which it claims has 'twice the beef of a Big Mac.' At the same time, it still offers pricier options including steaks and ribs, for customers who are willing to spend a bit more. On TikTok, the company's channel features videos with well-followed influencers doing up-to-date trends. The company has over 180,000 followers. The famous rib-chain reported a stunning 24 percent rise in sales compared to last year The company thinks that its quality cooking is the secret recipe to its success. 'It's clear we have a winning product with our new ribs, and our intent now is to use them to drive traffic,' Chili's CEO, Kevin Hochman, told investors on Wednesday. 'Those who believe our success was driven solely from a cheese pull and social media are just not close enough to our story.' Other industry titans said their sales aren't cooking with gas. Consumer sentiment has remained consistently low this year, as inflation-weary shoppers continue to rein in unnecessary spending. And that has crunched several bottom lines. Burger King, Wingstop, Cava, Sweetgreen, Chipotle, and Shake Shack have all reported significant declines in quarterly sales or misses compared to Wall Street's expectations. They all remain profitable - but their lower-than-expected sales show a major change in the way Americans spend cash. Meanwhile, several iconic brands have plunged into bankruptcy as the higher cost of food and the lower traffic count create a financial double-whammy. TGI Fridays, Hooters, Red Lobster, Bertucci's, On The Border, and Buca di Beppo all declared Chapter 11 after financial struggles.

My father had a severe stroke so I have taken over his finances to manage his bills... NAB has done the unthinkable and now I'm furious
A woman has slammed one of the Big Four banks, claiming she was blocked from accessing her elderly father's account despite having enduring power of attorney. Andrea Fox claimed NAB cut her access to her father's bank account and accused the finance giant of holding his funds 'hostage'. Ms Fox has spent more than four years caring for her father's finances, including bills and rates, after he suffered a severe stroke. 'They locked me out of net banking and they put a hold on my dad's account which means that I cannot access his net banking at all,' she said in a TikTok. 'I cannot access his funds, which means I can't pay his bills for him.' Ms Fox's access to the account had been flagged by the bank's fraud department 'I spent an hour and a half on the phone with the bank. They basically treated me like a criminal, like I was trying to scam my father's money,' she said. After the long phone call, Ms Fox was eventually told she would need to attend an NAB branch in-person to resolve the issue. However, even after verifying Ms Fox's identity and seeing documents detailing her enduring power of attorney (EPOA), which legally appointed her to manage her father's finances, the bank seemed unwilling to help. 'They said they couldn't do anything about the bank block because the fraud department had put a hold on the account and stopped me from accessing that money,' Ms Fox said. 'They said it could be up to 30 days before they reinstate my access to dad's account. 'But guess what? I just got his pharmacy bill for his medication from the nursing home. I just got his rates notice. 'What did they say? "You can go into the bank branch and have that bill paid for you because we won't be reinstating your bank access". 'To say that I'm frustrated is beyond it. I went into that bank, trying to get something really simple sorted out, and walked out with tears in my eyes, a bright red face, feeling like I was a criminal.' In an emotional update on Friday, Ms Fox revealed NAB's fraud department had blocked her access temporarily so it could re-process the EPOA documents. 'Their reasoning was to make sure I wasn't defrauding my father of his money, even though I was going into the bank account to pay one of his bills,' she said. 'I had to go into the NAB today, stand in the line for all that time, explain the situation again and I had to go through a process to get out cash to then walk down to the post office to pay my dad's rates. 'That's just rubbish.' Ms Fox ended her rant by calling on NAB's fraud department to tell her 'what the hell is going on'. 'I cannot call up and inquire as to the progress of this. The bank cannot call up and inquire. All I can do is send an email, which they may respond to within 30 days, and that is not okay,' she said. 'It drives me crazy. It really does. 'The banking overreach, the protecting people's money, which is literally holding people's money hostage. 'I'm not okay with it. If my dad could actually speak for himself, he would not be okay with it either.' Several commenters recommended Ms Fox go to the banking ombudsman if her access wasn't reinstated soon. 'Put a complaint in at the bank, then put a complaint in at the ombudsman,' one wrote. 'They make it hard for us to look after our aging parents,' another said. 'What a nightmare,' another wrote. Others suggested why the bank may have initially blocked her access. 'Unfortunately this is a legislation issue, banks are required to periodically refresh everyone's ID,' one wrote. 'I think the bank is doing the right thing to protect your father's account,' another said. 'It's every bank following elder abuse legislation,' another wrote. 'I'd rather them be over-cautious than do nothing. At least you will get access back with no money taken. Imagine how many people are defrauded,' another said.
