Ideas of extra cash for work at home

[elster]

I have been thinking that a bit of extra cash I could earn at home on the evenings would be good and could pay for my flying lessons.

Does anyone know of some good ideas?

I was thinking along the lines of envelope stuffing, or data entry type stuff. Just something I can do at obscure hours and pays a little for some pocket money.

However there seems to be a lot of scammers out there, so can anyone recommend me somewhere, or alternative suggestions would be good.

May be of no use but when I was back in the uk I used to earn some extra cash in the eve’s by putting price tags on Jewelry and belts. I used to get about 20p an Item was mind numbing and did get the contact through a mate. However thinking if you contacted a few wholesale distributors and asked for homework you may get something. Hope it’s useful been a while since I was in the UK back in the day I did loads of Jobs while in Uni even took in peoples washing and Ironing for a charge.
But hey good luck with the flying lessons your living my dream

Webcam whoring?


In seriousness, If i knew how to make money at home i wouldn't spend all day climbing on roofs and crawling under floorboards. But good luck with the flying lessons, i'd love to learn to fly someday. Although, I've never actually been on a plane!

Actually that might be a good idea, I know a few people who are distributors so I will give them a ring.

I can't really see me making any money as a webcam we, other than me being a bit of a prude I am also would not be of high value to anyone.

Well I am not looking at mega money, just enough to pay for a lesson a week. £50.

Time for another quote from Blackadder.


Kate's Father: I'm sad because, my darling, our poverty has reached such extremes that I can no longer afford to keep us and must look to my own dear tiny darling to sustain me in my frail dotage.
Kate: But father surely...
Kate's Father: Yes, Kate. I want you to become a prostitute.
Kate: Never! Father.
Kate's Father: Do you defy me?
Kate: Indeed I do for tis better to die poor than to live in shame and ignominy.
Kate's Father: No it isn't.
Kate: I'm young and strong, clever, my nose is pretty. I shall find another way to earn a living.
Kate's Father: Oh please go on the game. It's a steady job and you'd be working from home.

When I was looking for some extra moneys a few years back I delivered food for a chinese takeaway. It paid about £5 an hour plus 50p fuel allowance per delivery, plus tips. I worked 4 nights a week from 6pm-11pm and ended up making more doing that then I did in my day job lol!

Obviously if your driving something with a big engine then it wont be quite as good as you will be using alot more fuel.

Nice one. I suppose rocking up in a Murcielago to do a pizza delivery would raise an eyebrow or two.

There are plenty of ways to make money through ebay at home. Not by selling your own stuff but buying and selling.

That's another good Idea my Sis makes a bit extra on the side doing the same, she goes to carboot sales and sells them on ebay.

Paid surveys are good at the moment. Everyone wants to know who you are going to vote for. Just pin money but it's surprising how quick it builds up over a year

Not just that. Buying stuff wholesale, whether online or in person then listing it individually is another way of doing it. The difficult part is deciding what to sell, but anything that makes money is a good start.

That sounds about right if paying full price. But i don't need to pay for instructor.

He was having 'refresher' lessons, he has been flying for about 20 years. His planes had been locked away for a couple of years as he had no time to fly them
