(Guest Post) (04/05/2006) I am a stay at home mom with a 16 month old son. I dont want to have to work at a dead end job where i spend more of my pay check on gas to get there and on child care. I would love to find a at home job but without a start up fee. I have no money to my name and i am living with my aunt and need to get out of here. I just want to know about at home jobs where i can stay home with my son and still make some money to help me get out of my aunts house and get my own place.

I found surveys...one is NFO mysurvey.com or check out surveyclub.com because they have a great report on top survey sites. The more you do, the more reward points you get, and entered into drawings; some actually pay you, though only 5-20 bucks at a time, depending on the survey. Alot have points, that you can accumulate and redeem, even for a kenmore washer/dryer! It may take awhile, but if you are saving up for things like that anyway, might as well have fun doing it! Or there are the old standbys: Shaklee, Avon, Tupperware, You-books (books for kids starring kids), Mary Kay, etc. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Working At Home Post by camo_angels (672) | (03/25/2006) Profile | Contact For mystery shoppers: try www.mysteryshopperservices.com Sign up is FREE (never pay to sign up anywhere!)

If you are serious, and willing to put in 10 or more hours of work every week, check out http://webby.com/direct It's not a free lunch, but you can make good money if you put in some time and effort.

Report Spam or Abuse RE: Working At Home Post by SAPPHIREeyezNJ (3) | (03/23/2006) Blog! | Contact I also am looking for a work at home based business. It will be a little harder for me to start up, because I have no money to start with. I can type fairly well, and I know how to do a lot of things, I sell stuff for a few people I know when they have items for sale on eBay, but its not enough to turn it into a full time job for myself, the thing is that I am not sure where to get cheap but good items from to sell them for a profit on eBay. Its hard to find items people are looking for, and the shipping part sucks for oversized items. I really hope someone can help me with this one. Thanks a lot in advance. I really like that Secret Shopper idea. I have seen a few online advertisements, but they always want a fee, and I have no money to pay for anything. Thanks again.

I have tried Ebay but didn't really make money on there. Did anyone find anything? Any ideas? Thank you! katieandjeffy from PA Answers: RE: Working At Home Hi, I work at home for the most part. I am and have been a Pampered Chef consultant for 3 years. Actually I have been able to quit my 9-5 job doing it. Have you ever thought about Home Direct Sales? I typically work 6-8 days a month and make decent income. PLus the flexibilty to work around my families needs. If you or anyone else have any questions about PC, like to know the benefits, or like to give it a try, (it couldn't hurt). Post by sburkhart RE: Working At Home There are hundreds of thousands of Americans doing call center from home, for example taking orders. I tried to find out how to get those jobs and had no luck, but they exist. I heard a story on NPR about it, this company took orders for big catalogs like lands end, and all of the work was done from people's homes with their own computers. You might spend an hour or so online looking, I only spent 10 minutes but didn't find it. This would be a real job with regular hours, but from home. Post by Jeneene (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home I'm a mystery shopper and merchandiser. I am an independent contractor. Just go online and type in either word. I apply to companys online all the time. I have about 8 companies right now which is not bad considering I live in a VERY small town. In big cities, you can make lots of money. Post by Renee (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home Have you tried going to www.craigslist.com? There are a lot of major cities listed but even if your city isn't listed some of the other cities have work from home opportunities. Maybe even try a google search for work at home opportunities. There is another website that I have applied for at http://www.workathomeagent.com/. It is a call center type job from home. I chose the hours I want to work but may not get all the hours I requested. But it is a process and I am only part of the way through but should start working soon. I read that If you want to work from home that you need multiple streams of income. Do you have any hobbies that you could turn into a profit? There are lots of craft fairs that do not cost a lot of money to enter. Craftlister.com is a good place to find them. Do you have a marketable skill? Advertise for your skills. Barter if you can. The Mompack is a great place to ask for advise on starting a business. You may even want to find a group that meets regarding working from home, such as VendorCentralUSA, or WAHMFest, or if there aren't any groups that meet in your area, start one. The information you get from other work at home people will get you started on the right path. Advertise your business in local community business boards & community happenings in the local papers. Print up some flyers - put on cars, in the local supermarkets, walmarts, etc. There are lots of opportunities out there just research, research, research. Use the internet, it is your best tool. Post by Angie (Guest Post) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Working At Home Post by ThriftyFun (3766) | (02/07/2006) Profile | Blog! | Contact Request: I'm just wondering if anyone might have some suggestions for this. I'm no longer working due to a back injury and also because of Fibromylgia. Anyway, I'm seriously thinking of finding a home job where I can do things on my PC for people in my spare time. I can do a lot of different things such as typing, working with graphics. I know many programs, etc. I get so bored some days when I know I could be doing something to help bring in some kind of extra money to help out. I'm from Canada and I can afford to dish out money to get things started. So my question is how and where do I start to look for this type of work where it is actually legit? I don't want to get into something that's not for real or is going to cost me a lot of money as we just don't have it. If anyone can direct me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it a lot. Thank you, Yvonne from Ontario Answers: RE: Working At Home Have you thought of selling on ebay start with the unwanted items around your house Post by madisonandco (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home You may want to check out Elance (http://www.elance.com). You can post your services their and then bid on projects that people looking for help post. Elance then takes a percentage when you are paid by someone. Post by Lewis (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home In my area (NC,USA) doctor's farm out their notes, etc., for transcription. Check with your local medical society or hospital to see about your area. Post by wallflower RE: Working At Home In addition to selling your stuff on ebay, you could advertise to list others items as well. Post by AzDana (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home Hi there yvonne. I have fibromyalgia also. i know there are many of us out here actually. I work 2 jobs not because I like to drag myself thru life but I couldn't find one.

Post by sandy (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home Hi Sandy. Thanks hun but that's not what I'm looking for. I can type 50 wpm, I've slowed down a lot due to my arthritis but there are a lot of programs I can work with, with no problems. I guess I just have to get the word out in my area that I'm willing to do odd jobs for anyone that needs things typed up, web sites done etc. Thanks again everyone for the suggestions. Post by (Guest Post) RE: Working At Home Why not search the internet for the various Virtual Assistant groups and join the forums and learn about the working from home. Virtual Assistants, start there own businesses working from home offering services like typing, transcription, web design, bookkeeping, etc., you can learn a lot by joining the various forums and hopefully join the groups and this if you have the experience could be a good stepping stone to starting your own business from home. regards Ali, AMF Typing Services, South Africa. Post by Alison Fourie RE: Working At Home How about contacting a local school or college? You could help with admin or type student's papers for a fee. Post by Campnluray RE: Working At Home Since you said "graphics" and have a bit of money to get started, you could also advertise custom made invitations, stationary, greeting cards in bulk, business cards, etc. You would be surprised at the number of people that will pay a little extra to get something that actually has their name printed on it. You could have them sign their name, and you could scan it and use it for graphics on the cards, stationary, etc. Just a thought... you would have to buy your card stock, business cards, etc., but once you make a sell, you can put it back into your business. Advertise! Newspapers, flyers, your own business cards, and talk talk talk... your best and worst advertisement is "Word of Mouth". Good Luck. Post by sfrench1124 (Guest Post) Report Spam or Abuse
