With the price of everything going up, I am finding myself ways to make extra $

I have to agree, seems like the economy is getting worst. I thought it was only here in the states. But I guess not. It's scary because I just quit my job in November to run my websites full time. So hopefully giving up a guaranteed $90,000 per year was the right move. But so far it looks like it is. =) The way I way I make money is blogging and affiliate marketing. It's the best work at home career I've found. Chasing after a work at home job is like winning the lotto especially when there are so many ways to make money at home if people are willing to get out their comfort zone. I started making money online reading emails, then moved to taking surveys and then when I realized I could make money referring other people to do the same, I was hooked. So affiliate marketing has been my consistent way of making money online since the early 90's. A lot of home based businesses come and go but affiliate marketing is consistent. Eddy

I do mylot and also chacha.

Hi, I'm from Malaysia. Today, the oil price in my country rise to RM2.70 per litre from RM 1.58 per litre. That is horrible. Yesterday, all the oil stations were full of cars because the oil price will rise to day. Yesterday, all people were rushing to get the cheaper oil price. I hope the oil price can be controlled soon and I hope can find an alternative for oil. If not, it is very hard to make ends meet.

Hi dear you are very right, here in Pakistan in Fuel prices are almost raise by 40% floor prices raise by 100%, rice prices raise by 200%, Dairy products are up by 25%, cooking oil is almost 50%, electricity prices are up while salaries are same,

Hi Kiran- I agree about all you have said about everything going up-it too over here is just as bad I do a couple of small jobs in a pub and go on bux.to and bux3 though at the moment I can't get into-and mylot..apart from that my sons rent is the only other income coming in and being on my own I find it as equally hard as yourself as its me that has to sort all the bills out etc-hugs littleowl

The best way to earn and survive in the current scenarion is to drastically curtail the expenses. Yes we tend to spend more than we ought to. Try first by preparing the list of expenditure that are essential, like grocery, medical, education etc. Than find out what expenditure can be avoided, like telephones, electricity, petrol, food, yes we spend more on foods. I think this can be a good begining. Try it and see the result, it is astonishing.

You appear to have various sources and ideas of earning extra income. I am poor in this field, except mylot and Associated Contents, I do not log in to other sites for the sake of earnings. I try to cut down my own expenses to meet the rising cost of living. Here in India also, in ther recent past, cost of living has gone very higher and we are finding it difficult to meet both the ends. I also believe, money saved is money earned. So I try to save something, if possible.

I have been doing any and every thing. I have been doing mylot, writing on my blog, sewing, ebay, and more. I just took some stuff to a local consignment shop. I am getting some of my name brand clothing ready to take to Plato's closet. I am just anything I can to try and make more money. Our bills have been so high and I try to help my husband as much as I can. I cannot work out of the home right now , we have a toddler and my husband is a truck driver and is gone about 3 weeks out of each month.

I'm in Malaysia... The goverment just increase the oil price from 1.92 to 2.80 yesterday... Can you believe it... A .78 cent increase.... We all here suffer from that increase....

I do the mylot thing in addition to running my own business. I started the business to make extra money and be able to stay home and take care of my daughter. I make dog beds and have just started making cute collars too. I really love what I do. I sell mostly through a website and occassionaly set-up at local craft shows. It's doing pretty well and we've been able to save everything I am making.

It is getting harder to make ends meet you are right. We are pretty lucky in that we do not have a full mortgage, no credit cards, loans or any debt too big. The only debt apart from the mortgage that we have is a catalogue but that is going to be paid off in another couple of months. We are lucky in that the wage my hubby brings in is roughly the equivalent to two wages, hence why I can stay at home with the kids, so we are pretty lucky. I earn money through here and that is it at the minute, I find that this place takes up a lot of my time!

Here in the Uk it is the same,everything has gone up in price and the thing that amazed me was the thing that had seemed to have the biggest price hike was rice..basmati rice..its dairy and bread that has soared here inparticular.But the general cost of living is going up day by day,im sure everyone must be feeling the pinch.

Ya i too know that. and i feel very sad. can you tell me anyother side to make more money.

Well I have tried making money online it does pay but takes so long to actually get the money, I really haven't found any site that pays decently. I made a sacrifice something I didn't want to do but I started doing daycare again that is the only way I find I can make a decent living and still be home with my kids.

aside from my source income at my small shop, i also earn extra cash through mylot. it is very true that prices nowadays are getting higher and cash are hard to find. i cut down 10% in all my expenses to meet my needs without sacrificing them.

Here in my country is happening the same(I live in South America). I had to reduce some of my unnecesary expenses and Liabilities. Im making some extra money promoting my affiliate link and trading in forex, and besides I have My offline Job.

I think global crisis now is getting worst. Yes prices of every commodities have been rising. May be it is okey if the salaries were varry to the high prices occured, but its not. What we will do now is finding another way in getting extra income to feed our family. For me i have my small business in supplying sand and gravel to my nearby community. I will only used my car in a very important business to go to, but i rather commute ride a passenger bus to go to my everyday's job. In this i can save a little in my gas. Strategy is very important now a days. But inspite to global crisis, i still believe that God will never leave us nor forsake us. He really loves us.

I just signed up to keyforcash.com where you make money for typing. I'm a pretty slow typer so I don't make that much, but if you are fast you might be able to make a decent amount. One thing though, it takes most people about 3 weeks or even more to be excepted, for some reason though I got an email welcoming me right away so maybe you'll be lucky too. I just started with mylot today so hopefully I'lll make a little bit here too- otherwise I'm trying different work at home sites to see whats there. I really want to be able to stay at home for a few more months with my baby so I hope I'll find something soon! Good Luck.

I am still looking for extra ways. I live in the USA and things are getting hard over here too. Its just ridiculous how things keep going up. I have had a hard time finding me a job also.

Iam trying my luck in mylots. Actually putting effort and trying to give quality post. I also signed up for mginger and also ziddu. I also use cashcrate and mtruk. Though i didnt make a cent still(I couldnt cashout in anything still though i collected some money). Would you like to give me some advice. Also i found some sites saying what sites you listed to be scams. could you share your experience with them.
