Ack. We just found out today that in order to move out we have to pay 2 months worth of rent. One month was already budgeted for because that is what they told us when we renewed. Anyways, I could really use some way to pull in that kind of money by 5/31 (the money has to be in the bank by that day). My parents offered to loan us the money but I hate doig that because half the time my Dad won't take the money back. Besides PTC, GPT, ChaCha (looking forward to the trasnscribing), MyLot, Ebay (I can only sell so much stuiff we have), getting a second job (which I am sort of working on because I want an online only job that will be at least 3 months long to cover this summer).....what else is there?

Are you any good at writing? There are some freelance jobs you can find on the internet where you can write for someone for money. I think the website is freelance.com or something like that. Or freelancewriters. Not sure. Also there is blogging for money. Not sure how much that pulls in, just brainstorming here. For good help on that check out the forum http://indieworld.proboards100.com Lisa who is the admin there makes good money doing that and she would help you out. And of course there is always the street corner. Ok, joking on that one.

I will check that out. I can write, but have never done it professionally.

i dunno how you could earn extra money.. but i'm trying to save up some money as well.. and i have cut back on my spending a lot. instead of eating out so much i have become less lazy when it comes to cooking. I don't have a job, but here we get baby bonus, and its fixed to your family net income.. so i get roughly 200$ a month per kid. . that doesnt go very far, but its easy to save now a day since i can't get outta the house very often with a newborn ;)

I am not very good at making money on the net, so I am curious as to what other people tell you. There is no online program that I am that would make you $1000 by the end of May. Do you have local markets, car boot sales, etc? If you have books you no longer want, or clothes, any items at all really, you would be surprised at what people will buy at markets? Can you pick up some real cheap fruit & make jams?

I just joined a free program and it is possible to make a good portion of that by the end of May with this program. I only spend about 2 hours per day on it. There is no out of pocket cost. This was started in November and they have already paid out over $20,000. I just started and received my first payment yesterday. I have payment proof in my pictures. The banner is in my profile if you want to check it out.
