I need something to do on the side for extra cash that is kid friendly.?

Question

I have a 3 year old and work Monday - Friday, 8 to 5, but things are getting way expensive. What is something I can do for extra cash in the evenings and weekends. It doesn't have to be some get rich quick scheme, just something I can do and have her with me to make extra bucks. Any ideas? I tried Avon and didn't make a dime from it.

Answer 1

cat sitting

dog walking

baby sitting

virtual assistant (check want ad's)

Answer 2

Hi there, wow yeah you sound busy! I think doing Avon and not making a great deal of money from it and the stress that would also add to having an 8-5 job and a child isn't too great!

You can make money online, but watch out for all the scam sites and nonsense you'll encounter on your way.. I teach guitar, and am generally very very busy throughout the week, so can't really attempt getting another job. So I had a look on the net for ways to make a few extra pounds throughout the month online, and after searching through tonnes of rubbish I found.. .... ...

Basically, you sign up, and use the search engine (which is yahoo), and for every search you make, the site makes 5p, and gives you 2p for this.. Now this probably doesn't seem like very much! But if  you're making 50 searches a day, that's a pound a day and then - 30 quid a month! Plus, you get 1p per search of every friend you let know about the site.. So i guess it works like this (if I'm right hehe, been calculating this myself to see how much i'm due this month)

50 searches a day - £1... Monthly: £30

You refer 10 people who make 50 searches a day (you get 10% i think) - 10p from each member -- another £1 a day...

So that's £30 from yourself, and £30 made from you're referral links -£60 monthly! (great if you have a blog or a small website to advertise from, to get some referrals)... And they will pay you out once you've reached £20! You also get paid 5% for anyone you're friends refer, you can check all the stats online, i've made 64p from my cousin alone so far in a few days hehe!

Works well and pays you by paypal/cheque/credit card (i think maybe bank account transfer too, but definitely paypal!).. It's not a lot, but an opportunity to maybe make an extra £50-£100 a month for doing nothing other than what you probably already do in google - search the web! You can also check your balance at any time so you know how much you've earned and how much you've gained from you're friends earnings!

Check it out, and let me know how you get on :) Msg me if you want any advice about it, i've been a member for a while now : )
