As cheesy as it sounds, I save my cans. It's usually like 7 dollars for 3 or 4 bags, so it's not much at all, but it's something. Other then that I don't have time to do much because I work full time. I have heard that you can sell your plasma, although I have never done it. I also have done a few research studies. If you can find a reputable place in your area, you can make some pretty good money if you qualify. Garage Sales are a good way to make money too. I usually make about 200 bucks in a day when I hold a garage sale. You just have to check with your city and make sure you have the necessary permits and are following all the rules. I would love to hear other people's ideas because I could definetley use some extra money, especially with a 4 and 6 year old, with a birthday and Christmas coming up.

Thanks for the response. I save my cans also and occasionally scrap old appliances and batteries. Sperm banks would be another possiblity I have heard they pay 80 dollars for a sample. But, I dunno if I would do it it would be a little awkward lol

If you donate eggs (if you're a woman) it can pay at least $5000. I have seriously contimplated this. I am with you though, it would be weird. My mother of all people has encouraged me to do this.

I mean don't get me wrong I could definitely do it!!!It would just be wierd to know I could have a kid or multiple kids running around somewhere and not even know it.

Petsitting! I LOVE animals, so it's perfect for me! :)
I'm already earning at least $50 a month with one or two clients, and potentially could "make a killing" this holiday season with all the folks who will need petsitters while they go to visit their families for Thanksgiving & Christmas.
It's exciting, pays well, flexible to my schedule and fun for me! :)

Did you set up or own business? This is something I had thought about doing previously but have never really been sure how to go about starting it.

That is a great idea my girlfriend and I love animals. And people are always going on trips to see family and such. Sounds like it could work well for you.
