Everybody needs a little extra income, especially at times like these, and if you’re out of work, it can be more important then ever.

Here’s 10 Ways to Make Some Extra Cash while you’re out of work – see which ones will be best for you …

1. Have a yard sale …Sort out your house and find anything that you dont use, and take it to a carboot. You’ll clear some space, and make money!

2. Use eBay …

On the same sort of line, use ebay! Sell clothes, handbags, electricals, old DVDs, old magazines…most things will sell, and ebay do frequent ‘no fee listing days’, meaning that it will be even cheaper to sell on some things.

3. Do odd jobs …

Most people will pay $7 to have their lawn mowed, or their car washed. Either produce leaflets, or simply visit neighbouring houses and offer your services.  If you are great at making your own mani-pedi, you might want to offer that for other people for less than what they are charged in the salons …

Perhaps, you know another language or you are strong at math?  Then you can easily tutor your neighbor’s kids.  Or maybe just babysit them now and then…  Just let people know what you can do and you’ll be surprised at how many of them would says “yes”!

5. Become a virtual assistant …
