    You may think that you have nothing to sell but you have a baby,
    you must have lots of baby stuff you could put on there?

    I thought you were saying she should sell te baby :o :rotfl:

    If you have to stay in during the evenings because of the baby, then ironing service as someone mentioned, would be a great idea! Put up a little notice in your local post office / corner shop / etc and see what happens.. you need to work out how much to charge per garment or per hour.

    Baby stuff on eBay will go well as most people are broke after xmas..

    Have you tried to cut down on any expenses? Lowering your food bills, not buying extra clothes or luxuries you don't need etc..

    There are a couple of threads on text / phone work - not really my type of thing, but if you don't mind dirty men, then great! :confused:

    It's not easy to just make £1000, but the sooner you start the quicker you will get it..

    Good Luck x

    Like you i need to pay off my overdraft and a credit card so i know how it feels to be in some debt, its a burden you want to get rid off. I did some research and found these tips on making money-
    1. Stocks and Shares in the right business.
    2. Ironing services in the evening.
    3. Dog walking services for your local area.
    4. Optimize your Ebay listings with advice on the site- may make a difference.
    5.Start a blog and get paid by having adverts on your page.
    6.Babysit for friends and locals.
    7. Enter paid survey sites to get a little extra cash.
    8.Try cashbacks sites for redeemable cash.
    9.Get paid to review sites, movies, games, books,etc with review sites.
    10.Get paid to share pictures online- www.shareapic.com

    Hope this helps...

    hi nothing i list on ebay seems to sell latly and i cant work evenings in a pub as ive got a baby so by the time ive paid a babysitting i would be no better off, but thanks for the ideas.

    Are you sure you have nothing to sell, have you seen how baby stuff goes on ebay. I've often thought about buying stuff and reselling on ebay. if you keep a look out for stuff selling really cheap then resell that. Even nappies sell, open packs! Look out for things that are spelt wrong, that way theu don't get much response.
    The more I find out the less I know!
