    I have worked from home in the past and currently still do though what i do now is very different to how i started.

    The money isnt great with homeworking as it all depends on how much time you have and how much you are able to do in that time.

    To start off with i did all sorts of different things from sticking folders together to counting out xmas cards and envelopes and putting them together to attaching free gifts to the front of magazines and stuffing the magazines with all those annoying advertising leaflets that fall out of them everytime you pick them up!
    If its something like this you are looking for my best advice to you would be to get out the yellow pages and look up 'Print Finishers' ring around and ask if any of them offer home work the majority that do will deliver straight to you and then collect the items from you. Though this does take up a lot of space and can be very time consuming for not a lot of money.
    DO NOT EVER PAY ANYONE TO GIVE YOU THIS SORT OF WORK!!!!!

    What i do now is interent based and is data collection. All i do is collect email addresses of those people that may be interested in a free trial of our product and pass it on to someone else who then in turn emails them, the only down side with this is that it is commission based if they dont take up the trial then i dont get paid! I have no idea how to get in to this side of it though so i cant be any help on that part, a friend of mine was working in the offices of an internet based company and when they decided to branch out she asked if i wanted to make some extra cash doing so.

    It doesnt help a great deal but it does help a little bit and every little bit helps doesnt it ;)
