2. Have an online garage sale

Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 Review: Sleek New Paint, Same Old Ports ...

You don’t have to wait for a Saturday in the spring to hold a garage sale, you can do it online.

In fact, you can make more money selling your stuff on the web than you would selling your stuff in person.

First of all, you need to set up an account on popular online selling sites like Craigslist or Kijjiji, which is super simple and free, free, free.

Then, instead of setting your stuff up on card tables on the lawn, you need to take some amazing photographs of the things you’re going to sell.

Lighting Hints

  • Shoot in natural light.
  • If you have to shoot indoors when it’s dark outside, you should use a lighting kit.
  • Place your item in front of non-reflective whiteboard before shooting if you don’t have a lighting kit.
  • Once you’ve shot your pics, edit them to make sure the colors are nice and crop out anything unnecessary.
  • Open up your account on one of those sites we talked about earlier.

Now set up an advertisement and upload your pics.

You can decide if you want to set a price or you can write that you are accepting the best offer.

Hit post.

The site will send you an email to confirm the posting and voila your online garage sale has started. And you can post a bunch of things on one page or you can post a separate advertisement for each item you have.

The beauty of online garage sales is that you will get a bunch of people inquiring about your item so you can gauge how much you will be able to sell your item for. That means you don’t have to accept the first offer that comes your way and that also means you can make more dough.

Fill out surveys for cash

1. Fill out surveys for cash If you don’t mind sharing those opinions then get ready to slide some dineros into your pocket. Companies want to know what you think and they’re willing to pay for it. In fact, not only are they willing to pay for your opinion, the actually sort of have to. About a decade ago, annoying survey agents used to dial up your landline around dinnertime and try to get you to fill out a survey. This attempt to hijack people’s time didn’t go over too well and actually angered people to the point of taking companies to court for the calls. These days, if companies want to find out what you think, they’re going to have to pay you. However, not everyone knows they can get paid for filling out surveys and even if they see an ad asking them to fill out a survey for money, most people think it’s a hoax. And that’s why if you sign up to be a survey taker you WILL get work and you WILL make money for just letting people know what you think. You can make about $10 an hour o...
