During times of distress, you'd be desperate to try anything to get some cash. Do be careful not to fall for scams. If you have certain skills, I suggest you go to elance.com to bid for writing assignments. If you have other skills, it can be done as well. I think this is one of the ways. Offline, I think you can look for part-time or freelance jobs. Walk other people's dogs or babysit their dogs when they go for Christmas vacations. You can offer to do some things in the community for a fee.

Sure! Do tell us how it turns out. I'd love to know. I'm also looking for something to supplement my income - offline and online.

I earn about $100 a month online but it has taken me some time to get there and only because I exchange links of sites instead of registering for fre. That way I can get some free active referrals that help me cash out sooner. If you want to exchange, add me and send me a PM telling me you are interested. $100 may not seem much, but you can´t make much more online without investing and that´s a risk. Check other opportunities of working too. Luck!!!

So sorry to hear that you are suffering the effects of this horrible economy. I wish you the best and I pray that God provides for you. Can you write articles? If so, I suggest Associated Content as they will pay both up front and for page views. I usually make about $70 per month there and would make more if I could write more there. I am only able to write in spare time right now as I home school my daughter and I have much house work plus we live on a small hobby farm. Good luck in your endeavors here. I wish you the best!!
