I like the selling online business. Buy cheap items on clearance sale in WalMart then sell it in ebay. I also have an interest for the making of jewelry. Thanks for the lists. I do hope that you get more responses on this topic.

I am actually selling online already, but not much customers though. I still don't know where to buy cheap, yet of good quality items that are in demand. The business sounds easy, but it really is hard to start earning from it. I'd really like to decorate cakes, but I still don't have the know-how and the time to learn doing it.
Yes, I really more people will start responding to this discussion so that we can also find other businesses that we can start from home.
