I once got $50 for a couple boxes of old clothes. This is much like ebay but this is local and the people just come to your house to pick it up.

Post By Matt (Guest Post) (08/10/2008) For the kids who may already have a little money, but are really looking to boost their profits, I've got an idea. Find a professional T-shirt printing company and think of a logo or design that alot of people would really like to wear. It could be your schools logo, a saying, or a cool picture, just something people like. Pay the T-shirt company to print the shirts (Buy a relativly large quantity of the shirts) and then receive them. Advertise your shirts all over and say that people can buy them from you. Now, all you need to do is raise the price on the shirts than you what you payed for them, as much as you want. As the shirts are sold, you begin getting your money back then what you payed for the shirts. And after people start seeing the cool shirts people are wearing, your service will keep coming.

Post by camo_angels (661) | (07/08/2008) Profile | Contact I grew up in a rural area, and through the county job service, we were able to sign up for detasseling positions, which was for working in the corn fields pulling tassels. This lasted for 4-6 weeks, and they hired at least the age of 14. There are also others, like weeding bean fields. If you do not have these available, you can offer "gardening" or landscaping services of pulling weeds, raking, etc. Many wouldn't mind a helper, as these jobs take up a lot of time and energy! These can be hourly or by the "project". Tie the gardening with running errands around town (picking up groceries, dropping off library books.) and it can add up! Elderly and caretakers a lot would appreciate an extra pair of hands and feet to save them time. Putting the word out: fliers (please proofread!) are the best way, especially at the library, grocery/drug store, post office, senior center, churches, etc. Talk with your parents, grandparents and their friends about anyone who may need services. It takes a lot of networking, but that is what helps bring in the money! Report Spam or Abuse HELP ME PLEASE!!!

Your school probably has a high school football team. I help in concessions every game for 20 dollars. Think about getting a paper route you average 14 cents a paper and you give about 40 papers a day so 14X40=5.60 a day and 7 days a week = about $40 a week about 4 weeks in a month=$157 a month it really adds up and if you go a year you get $1880 a year and you can do the job before school and then collect at the end of the month or you could start an OdD business. I am going to start a dog treat business and sell dog treats for $5 a pound or make designed pillow cases or some thing. Seriously ebay is great cuz I sold pokemon cards i had from when i was 9 and I got 40 bucks on ebay but they do take a listing fee and a selling fee of like 5% which in my case was 1.45 and listing is only around 2 dollars but it works really well so i can make around $90 in 2 week on average even if it is a piece of junk it will probably sell on ebay.

Post by theseamstress (406) | (11/10/2007) Contact well school is the most important thing as long as your job does not interfer with that. girls could take in ironing at home or if you can sew and can borrow your moms machine you could make doll clothes or pet clothes to sell. McCalls has lots of patterns for both things to make.walmart sells fabrics for $1.00 per yard you could make sets like table napkins and table runners. and then on 2 saturdays out of the month sell them at flea markets ask one of your parents or your grandparents to set up there with you encourage them to bring a few of there unwanted items along for them to make money on and make up some baked goods like cookies brownies to sell also. and take a cooler with ice and fillit with canned generic sodas that you paid 25 cent for each and sell for 50 cent each. a flea market table or booth often only cost7-10 for the day and you'll make well over that if you have already made your items and have lots ready to sell. for things of crafts that the girls have made check your local chamber of commerece to ask them when craft shows will be in your area or near you, call the director of those craft shows to see what the fee for a booth is and if its low withyour budget set up there.again ask your parent or grandparent to come with you to help.or ask your parent to sell them for you on ebay if possible. offer to vacume out and clean the inside of your familys cars once or twice a month like your (aunts uncles grannys etc) car detailing is quite exspensive and you could do it for half the price they charge. just go to the dollar store and invest in your supplies like windex, fantastic, armour all, paper towels etc. just the basics. boys who have knowledge of small engine motors could borrow dads basic tools and repair lawnmowers, weedeaters, things that do not require alot of replacement parts boys could also find thrown away salvage bicycles and repair them paint them and resale them. what ever you choose to do at home keep a log of your customers name & number the duty you provided the price your charged evrything, even your money spent on supplies needed, so you'll know if your choice you picked to do is paying off or if you were just breaking even from the money asspect of it. remember though your still young even though your able and want to be independant. so use caution wisely when dealing with strangers and always let your parents know when and where you'll be and still listen to there judgement and ideas. they want you to be safe as well as independant.

I'd say sell soda cans for 75 cents and lemonade and kool-aid for 50 cents. Every Saturday I mow our lawn and get paid 5 dollars. Today I planted flowers and got paid $6.

Post by Cyinda (777) | (10/18/2007) Profile | Contact Well, I'm from the old school & I can think of no better way for a teenager to make extra money that by doing yard work. In the Summer there are lawns to be mowed & in the Fall, leaves to be raked or blowed into piles then bagged up & in the Winter, snow to be shoveled. This kind of work is especially helpful for older folks because they may have a hard time doing it themselves due to health problems like a bad back etc. On the rare occasions a neighborhood teenager knocks on my door & asks me if he (or she) can do any yard work, I go out of my way to find some for him (or her) because I'm just THRILLED to see a teenager who realizes the value of a buck & has gotten off the gameboy & TV couch! ---> Here's a few "MARKETING IDEAS" for all you teenagers interested in yard work for cash: 1) FREE WORK COUPON: You don't have to, but if you have a computer & printer you can spend an hour typing up a list of your services with a FREE coupon for the first hour of work. This "free coupon" will let the adult see just how hard of a worker you are, & don't worry about all that work for free because you'll probably get tipped extra money just because you offered your services for free. People really appreciate this! 2) GOOD DEALS: You can offer a "buy 3 mows, get 1 free" coupon or some marketing deal like this. Even better you can offer free services for the elderly or a "Gift Coupon" for other neighbors to buy your services for another neighbor in need of yard work. 3) Be a good neighbor, if you have a neighbor who is in the hospital or sick or just had a baby & can't keep their yard up, organize a day where the whole neighborhood can get together & work on their yard. These kinds of things go along way to Advertise your services. Say, "Hi, I'm so & so from down the block, I live in the blue house across the way or my parents are such & such & here's my card. I'm arranging a block work day from noon to 3 for so & so because he just had a heart surgery (or whatever). If you're interested, just show up at such & such address. AND, you ever need any help with your yard, I do a full range of services, here's my card...(or brochure with list of services)." Make sure it's okay with the homeowner first before doing most work. And most importantly: Don't cut ANYTHING down before asking. An example: My mom let a Realtor who was going to sell our house do a bit of pruning & weeding for a few hours (the work was free, what could she say!?) While we were gone, the Realtor TOTALLY cut down her prize Rhododendron plant that she nursed & loved for over 35 years, it had huge flowers & was BEAUTIFUL... Well, as you can imagine, my mom wasn't to pleased (to say the least) when we pulled up & it was GONE! Don't make this mistake! A plant may look spindly & ugly in the fall, but look great in the summer months, don't think it's to be weeded unless you're SURE! 4) On you card say "I guarantee you'll be happy with my work or no charge" because many adults think teenagers these days are lazy & won't work hard. If you can prove them wrong, you'll have a customer for years to come! 5) Keep you prices low & you'll make it up in tips if you work hard. This way you can beat the competition! Sure, you need to get your money back for any tools (leaf blowers, rakes, etc) you needed to buy, but remember, by not having to pay for gas & a car to get to work you're saving tons of money! So, you can start at $10 - $15 an hour or so for weeding to get customers. (You can always raise your prices if need be later on) OR, you can do "piece work" meaning, just charge $25 or whatever, per yard mowed (depending on the size of the lawn). 6) Offer a monthly, seasonally or year-round service.. Many adults make their living this way in our area. Instead of going door to door only when it snows, how about salting their sidewalks & driveways whenever there's ice too. This way, they can always know their sidewalk is free of ice & no one will slip & fall. You could bill them weekly, bi-weekly or monthly, Kind of like a paperboy would. There are many grown adults in our area who make a living this way year round. They buy a leaf blower & a lawn mower & do a weekly leaf clean & mowing & weeding service... We once had a gal who did this & the great thing was, we never had to call her, she came every Tuesday & our yard ALWAYS looked wonderful! She sent a bill to us monthly. 7) Moving, house painting & spring cleaning services are another way to work around the neighborhood. If you know someone that's moving, why not offer your services, They'll appreciate the extra help! 8) HANGING CHRISTMAS LIGHTS - Help he home owner, or do the work yourself, either by the hour or piece work. Just go around in mid November & pass out your business card or flyer & tell them you're looking for ways to earn extra money. 9) When looking for odd jobs, Try to actually talk to a REAL human, don't just leave your card on their door. Go around & knock on doors during dinner time when people are home, usually between 6 & 7:PM. Make sure your parents know exactly where you'll be & NEVER, NEVER enter someone's home. People these days don't take offense if you state "I know you don't want to let the heat out, but my parents won't let me enter someone else's home. Can I talk to you on the porch please?"... And Girls, take a brother or friend with you or have your mom follow you in the family car. 10) Keep good notes! Take a notebook & pen & write down each address & if they were home & what services they might be interested in & if they want you to come back. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * I hope some of these ideas help you... Just let you neighbors know you are working toward buying a (whatever) & that you plan to work hard to get it & they'll go out of their way to find work for you! We adults just LOVE to see a teenager who will work hard for what they want! Report Spam or Abuse RE: How Can Kids and Young Adults Make Money? Post By Josh (Guest Post) (10/18/2007) I'm in The UK. I don't know about the US but at the moment I'm on £4.50 an hour and work 10 hours on a Saturday in a pub. It's great and you make lots of new friends with the staff, and the customers are great with tips so I end up with £45 which is $90. It's awesome, I make normally about £20 tips which is $40. My friend also works in a hairdressers a couple of hours and is on a little less than me. Don't be shy, get out there and ask around.
