Does anyone do anything to earn extra money?

[prosper]

I do bookkeeping for 2 area libraries. Takes very little of my time and provides a decent amount of extra money per month.

How did you get started and what are the qualifications neccessary to obtain this position? There are a lot of small businesses in my area looking for bookkeepers. I've never done it before but I've taken lots of accounting classes and I understand financial statements.

I've tried cash-for-surveys programs before, but I don't tend to keep doing something that makes so little money if you don't get other people to do it so you can get money from what they do as well. I also noticed an increase in telemarketter calls and junk mail to my home. I've moved since then though lol.

For a couple years I have made a little extra money reading tarot cards online. At a modest .50 per minute rate you can make $30/hour, some people charge $5-20/min. I can't imagine anyone paying so much for 'psychic' advice, but they do!

I sell Pampered Chef, my friends tried to get me selling Mary Kay but i never wear make up (not since my mom said it was ok, that ruined it lol)
I love the products and being my own boss, and its fun.

I have done surveys in the past. I've made a couple hundred dollars doing so over the past year and a half.

I trade (for a handling fee) coupons and have made a couple hundred from this as well.

I've done some minor web design on the side.

Since I'm done with college, I plan to sell my textbooks on ebay. Hopefully that'll help get my rating up on ebay so I can sell other things as well.

How do you find legitimate Mystery Shopper Jobs?

You can try experienceexchange for mystery shopping

I make most of my money on line getting paid to post in my blogs

I also work the contests at GPT sites and make money that way

[hawkster]

I was selling a few things on Ebay as well. I eventually got tired of looking for things and right now I am working a LOT of overtime at work. Basically I am working most of my off days because they are paid at time and a half and double time

I buy items online when they are really cheap and sell them on ebay. You will be surprised that almost every week there are some profitable items. Last week there was the sony 2GB mp3 player deal for $10 on Amazon (price mistake), and I am selling on ebay for $60 right now. Tonight there is the phone system for $20, can be easily sold on ebay for $60.

Of course you have to be experienced to know which are profitable items. I use deal sites(dealsea, 3deals.com, dealslist, etc) to buy cheap items.

I use to sell on half.com.
Now I am taking calls for west.com

[amberbamber]

I sell my used books on Amazon.com.
Do paid to click and surveys for extra money.
Right now my husband is bringing in almost all of the extra money by doing handyman work and mowing lawns.

Angelina and Brad have babies... and then sell the pictures for a little extra cash. You might try that

[tabbycat31]

I too sell on Ebay. I am also part of cashcrate, mypoints, squishycash, and cash lagoon. Each one of those sites are either being paid to sign up for offers, read emails, or take surveys. I've made a good little bit of money doing those (if anyone's interested you can check out my blog, I can always use referrals ) I also have a 2nd job a couple of nights a week in retail

Sounderella, can you send me a referral for cashcrate, squishycash, and cash lagoon?

I'm on a similar site called Memolink,a nd I have a referral for you if you want it. Send me a PM.
