Ways To Make Extra Cash

These days I can use all the cash I can get.... and I'm sure that you can too! Here are some good ways to make some extra money.

1)eBay: You know that dress you bought, with the tags still on it that you never wore? List it. What about those super stylish skinny cargos that just don't fit right? List em. On eBay you can sell just about anything and people WILL buy. At first it can be a little hard if you don't have any feedback scores but the more you sell, the easier it gets. Start off selling lower-value items at super bargain prices and people will be more likely to take the risk of buying from you.

2)Get crafty: Are you super artsy? If so, put it to use! Make some extra cash by creating something and selling it to your friends, at an art show, or even on eBay (or etsy.com). I make super cute picture frames that I sell a ton of online.

3)Put up a flyer to babysit/housesit/petsit: You'll be surprised at how many calls you will get and how much money you can make! It helps if you get a Red Cross certification!

4)Donate you blood/plasma: Simply do a Google search to find a donation center in your area. You can make money and save lives!!!

5)If you've got it, use it! Search online for local modeling jobs. You don't have to be Giselle to make money off your looks!

6) Learn to save. Don't buy things you don't need and always look for the best deal. A penny saved is a penny earned!!!
