Christmas is coming and that means expenses will shoot up due to gifts that we have to buy for our family and friends. We might need extra cash for this season, well I'm sure of that.
I have an eight to five job from Monday to Friday. I earn little from mylot since I don't make tasks anymore. I don't have any online jobs. But I want to earn extra for this christmas.
I would love to work on saturdays and sundays but I don't what. Here in the Philippines, companies seldom take part-time employees, they usually hire part-time. So what do I need to do to earn extra cash?

I work a full-time job also.. only I do it from 11pm to 7am. but I do earn extra cash online.. My best paying site is Zazzle. I seem to be averaging between $20-$40 a month.. this month I made $60.. OS I am really starting to look forward to Christmas as my earning usually take a real big jump.. Last December I made $167. I am hoping it will be at least double that this year.
I also earn from a few other sites.. Like bigcrumbs and pinecone research. and a few other places that aren't as consistent.
My new sites Swagbucks and Superpoints look promising... I'm hoping to get maybe $10 a month from each of those.. payable either through Amazon or paypal..
And of course a little mylot money here and there.. is good.

If you like to write or share pictures and videos I would recommend Gather or Triond (if you have time for both, that would probably be ideal). You will have to post new content regularly in order really have a chance at making any real money, so if you're going to make five posts in five days and then not post anything for months, it won't work.
Gather is a lot like MySpace or Facebook only it is very much based on the sharing of each member's unique content, and it is also a lot more mature in nature (not so much "noise"). They use a points system and one of the cash out options is a Paypal payment.
Triond operates pretty much the same way except you get paid cash depending on how many hits on your content you've managed to accumulate in the given month. The minimum payout is fifty cents, but there is no limit to what you can earn. The more you promote your work, the better your chances of getting lots of hits and earning more.
Those are two of my favorite beginner options in a nutshell. I don't know if this is the type of thing that will help you or not as I realize everyone is different in what works for them, but I wish you all the best of luck on your quest to make more money!

Hello Aileen! I'm from Philippines also. just like you, I am also working in a company right now and do the online job after work. I need this online job because my salary is not enough to sustain my baby's needs and bills. I do mylot and the other forum site. I really stick on mylot because I enjoy what I am doing and that is very important for you to stay in the site. I'm also searching possible part time job through odesk.

You might wanna try sulit.com that's a good site for buy and sell. Most filipinos use the site for business. You can sell stuffs that you don't use anymore. It can also be a good sideline for buy and sell. You buy certain stuff in that site then sell it again increasing the price. That's what most people are doing right now.

Try Inbox dollars they pay you to read emails, toolbar searches, watch videos, and do tasks. I've done pretty well with them! Also Synovate is a pretty good place too. you earn points pretty fast by taking surveys and they also have product surveys as well where you get a product try it out and then send feedback about it!
