December 11, 2006 5:45am CST
Here it is Monday morning and here I go getting ready for work agian. (YUCK)I keep trying all these different ways to work from home, however None so far has paid off. A few cents here and there in my account, but not enough to pay my bills. Has anyone tried the stuffing envelopes programs, and if so has anyone made any money at it? I am thinking of trying it. I saw a site over the weekend that gaurentees sucsess or your money back. If any one has tried this, Please let me know what your experience was with it.

I have tossed around this idea alot before, but never went through with because of the upfront charge, and the fact that are they legit. In response to one of the other responses about creating your own website that sells something.....Try SMC merchandising.......I am going to try it when I get some spare cash (maybe when I reach my goal on mylot that's what I'll spend it on)....I know it costs $25 upfront, and is backed by money back guarantee, this program is endorsed by Tom Bosley, remember him "Mr. Cunningham from Happy Days"...its definately worth looking into! Good luck.

I tried smc and didn't have any luck with it.. No one wanted to buy because its stuff they had seen before, plus its 25.00 up front but then you have to pay so much a month .. can't remember how much but it wasn't very cheap.. I waited for the my contract to end and got out..I just didn't work for me maybe it would work for you..Good luck with that.

I have already tried SMC and had a website up and running for a year and not one sale. I spent about $4000.00 to SMC, website, hosting fees, merchant account fees, advertizing, and the list goes on and on. I would advise against SMC

Hey, deb...have you actually gotten the money in your hand or is it just showing in a balance online? Please let me know. I am gonna add you as a friend so you can message me. If its just in an online balance number showing in your account, and you don't have the money, don't bet on it. Please let me know. I have been doing this for over 5 years now and found too many scams like that.

My brother tried the stuffing envelope thing and it isn't worth it. They had to spend out more then they made actually the first fee then the sending out the stuffed envelopes which they say they will imberse you for they did but my brother didn't make enough, like a few cents per so many not worth it. So I wouldn't even try it. So it if your looking to make any money this is not it.

First off you should never pay for any type of employment. If it's legitimate they won't ask for a fee. Secondly don't fall for the stuffing envelopes programs they are all scams.

All envelope stuffing is a scam. Most times you pay the first fee and never get any response again. If you actually get something to stuff it turns out to be matterial to scam others into giving their money away. Save your money.

We don't have that in our country. I think it's mostly in the USA.

Well, if you have lots of $$ just to waste then try Stupid things like this, but Envelope Stuffing is a Scam and you should Never consider it. I was stupid enough to waste $$ on this scam about a yr. ago. Would have been nice if I would have known it was a Scam. When it comes to making Legitimate $$ online you really have to do Research and such and see if it is for real. I am doing an Online Business that many might be leary of for the Cost, but I am doing ok with it, and will share it with anyone interested.

yes, even i have tried many options, specially when my child was small, but none worked. now i'm back to the 10-6 grind, but i think this is the best. there are no other viable options.

If you have experience with eBay, you can start a business selling stuff there for other people. People are doing this more and more and succeeding at it. Plenty of people have stuff they want to get rid of but don't have the knowledge or time to sell it themselves. The agent takes their stuff, photographs it, lists it, runs the auctions, packs & mails it, etc. and keeps 1/2 of the final bid. You don't need any startup money except for mailing supplies, though you'd need access to a digital camera.

Don't do it...anyway, I think it's really a waste of time. I have tried ultimatewealthpackage but just to test it out. I am not sure whether that's a scam but I never really go through the whole process. There are a lot of hidden costs in such programs. With internet, even though it has improved our lives, but there are a lot of scams out there, so just be careful.

Almost every "stuffing envelopes" business will require you to pay them to work for them or to acquire information from them about doing this type of work. The rule of thumb is that any company that asks you to pay them to find out about work, or to work for them, they are a scam, and you definitely will not make money from it.

If you are experienced in customer service or marketing, have a broadband connection, a home office, and most the time nationwide free long distance, then there are literally tons of work at home jobs out there. ANY job that makes you pay up front is not a job, it's a rip off. The only time you should invest money is if you are starting your own business. Never pay anyone else to work for you !

ALL forms of "stuffing envelopes" are scams!! There are so many things wrong with the issue that it is just outrageous... For that matter, ANYONE or ANY COMPANY requiring you to pay in order to work for them...stay away. Stay far, far away. One more thing...don't fall for something just because there is a guarantee. ANYONE can claim whatever they want and say they "guarantee" it but it is meaningless until they actually follow through, and usually it is difficult to find out whether it's legitimate until you've gotten burned. I speak from tons of both experience and money and time lost.

all I can say is good luck, remember this if you have to pay for work then it is not worth it.. why are you gonna pay an employer to send you work??? if it was a legitimate company they would not require you to put any money down to stuff their envelopes. I tried it once and paid I think 20.00 at the time and whe nI got the package it was a joke..lol you have ot make your own copies and find your own mailing list.. then I tried another one and it was sort of the same way only that you had to fold and stuff the material and put their labels on it however you still had to pay for all of your own copies.. so I wish you well on that however I do not recommend it. have you tried Meluluca (sp) or vitamins(worlds greatest vitamin) I mean if you want to pay for work then atleast go with products that some people really do want. I have several programs that I use however everything takes time and effort and it takes time to get to earning what you want. it does not come over night. Have fun

Send me $1,000 and I will tell you how to work from home and make money. Don't trust me? You shouldn't. And you shouldn't trust anyone else who asks you to PAY for a job. As the saying goes, "there's a sucker born every minute."
