Now, more than ever, people are in hard times. The effect this is having is to send people searching for new ways to earn money. Is this happening to you ? Do you do this ?

Yes, I find myself doing it all the time now that I am laid off. I have been searching the internet to find place to make money with getting scammed, and it is very hard to tell the real one from the scam. Do you have any suggestions? Please let me know.

YES!! Since my hours have been reduced, I've been more serious about searching for a part-time job or whatever. Right now - I'm selling old books that's been sitting in my mini-library just to get by. Just a lil bit hesitant in doing this because I value some of the books and even though they cost a good amount of money, I feel like they're worth more than that. I'll keep looking though, just to stay afloat.

I do, we start doing lots of little things to help. It can be from using coupons, recycling or odd jobs.

Oh yes! I am becoming so frugal. In all ways. I work a full time job amnd a part time job anmd also do gift baskets for a few villas. I have cut down on food and grow so mnay things now. I have tomatoes, snow peas, pumpkin, bananas, plantain and a little sugar cane. I am putting in soem fruit trees this weekend and soem sctoch bonnet pepper trees. I have poratoes growing in tyres. Even just a little of everything can help with the food budget. Our food prices have now increased by 25% this year and we are hurting. So many things like the tomatoes and snow peas are grown in pots. Trust me - it helps me so much.
