How Many Of Us Invented New Ways

Actually I have had yard sales to make extra money.I am fixing to start making quilts to make extra money on the side.I have also saved alumnimum cans and took them to a place that recycles them to get a little extra money.

I do mystery shopping to make some extra money. I don't live in a huge area, so the jobs are few and far between, but when I get the chance, I usually do them. My son goes and mows lawns. My kids have had lemonade stands. We also will do garage sales when we are in need of money.

I have done some mystery shopping, and I have done some merchandising. If I were more organized and confident, I could probably replace one job with those things. I have a big can of aluminum cans I need to take to recycling, and I have been known to collect used printer cartridges and sell them to a place I know. I do not necessarily know that that is extra money, it is more like getting a return for a deposit, since I have had to buy the cartridges first. As a kid, we picked up returnable pop bottles, but that is not an option these days, at least not where I live.

Hi, Well i am still a bit young (only 20 years old) and have made a lot of cash offline with offering my computer skills. I have made serveral programs for educational use. I sold them to different schools. Also in the netherlands computers are getting more and more important when teaching childeren. I try to get into this business because my mother is a teacher and I can get a lot of feedback from here. I also sold a lot of websites to business owners and sold a lot of stuff on flee markets. With kind regards, MOnline

The most money I've made has actually been the two things I love doing most: writing and crochetting. I've made some good money writing web content as a ghostwritter and have sold dozens of baby afghan & pillow sets (one set pictured here)

Well, as far as I can recall, when I was in my elementary days and having a vacation from school; my younger brother and I decided to try our skills in business. Fortunately, we were able to sell a few of our handmade crochet pieces. Then, more than five years ago, my younger sister tried to sell our old clothes and accessories at a garage sale. This went on for two to three days. The earnings were divided between the two of us naturally. And now that I have my own family, I still engage myself with this stuff either to clear some space and / or to earn extra money. But this time, I collect used sheets of paper, magazines, newspapers, plastic bottles, breakable bottles, tin cans, and cartons on a monthly basis. Once I have collected at least a kilo of each stuff, I bring it to the nearest junk shop in our place. Somehow, it adds up to our current cash on hand to be used for our daily expenditures.

In the recent past I have made witnessing bracelets. They are plastic beaded bracelets with different words on them such as I (Heart) Jesus, Jesus (heart) you, F.R.O.G.(Fully Rely On God) P.R.A.Y. (Pray, Repent, Ask, Yield) Those are just a few of the type that I've made and sold. I've really been meaning to post them somewhere on the internet, but with working as much as I do, have never found the time to do it.
