  1. Do you qualify for assistance? If not and getting a second job is out of the question. Try cutting out the little extras in your lifestyle (if you have them.) You could try babysitting to add money to your income. Have you tried out Ebay or selling on Craig's List? You could always look for items under the "free" section of Craig's List to resell online too. You can also find stuff on freecycle.org

    I use www.mypoints.com and usually earn a $50 giftcard around Christmas time. I also do Pinecone Research. You have to apply to work for that site and get accepted.


  2. there are things like wic that help single mom with grocery's....there is section 8 to help single moms get free housing...

  3. I had three jobs, I wish there was an easier answer. Babysitting is the best because it's on your schedule, and you don't have to leave your child.

  4. food stamps

  5. hmm maybe another part time job? You could check out sites on line that pay. I've been paid over $700.00 in 2 months on http://www.treasuretrooper.com/phtml payments are monthly and you can be paid by paypal or check.

    I was a single mom for 5 years  it's hard. But, at that time I wasn't aware there were any sites online that pay. I wish I could be more help. Sorry.

  6. I do on-line surveys, some are great and some are not, but I keep doing them until I can cash out then I will close them, but have over $200 sitting in accounts all over the place, if I know that a certain time is going to be more expensive than I can afford, then a month before hand I cash in a store voucher and use that to help with the groceries etc., (like the vets annual needles etc) otherwise if I'm holding my own I leave them all until just before christmas and it really does cover all the expenses, I also enter competitions in magazines and have won loads of things, the things I dont need I either give as a present to family of friends, or if its something expensive, then I sell it, you'd be surprised at how much you can earn and or win, hope this helps, goodluck to you! :)

  7. I feel for you! Unfortunately, there are no easy programs online to make money. Surveys do pay, but take time away from family life and the pay only amounts to no more than $100/month. MLM could be a solution. However, the programs usually require an investment and a time commitment. I am a successful network marketer. It took me years to get where I am and I had to invest significant money and time to get anywhere.  I have a friend that sells items on E-bay.  She buys items with a significant rebate and sells the item later.  For instance, she buys a printer for $300 with a $150 rebate.  She holds the item until the rebate is no longer available. Then she sells it for around $250 on E-Bay. $100 profit. It doesn't sound like a lot, but she has progressed to selling about 3 items a week. 12X$100 might help. Hope this helps. Do not pay for info on processing rebates, stuffing envelopes, data entry from home, etc.
