Three day week

Options
Ive now been down to a three day week now at my work for the past 4 months and things are starting to get us down at home as we have no spare cash for the extra little things we like to do. Im not looking for mega amounts of cash eack month but £100-£200 pm would help me a great deal. Iv tryed the Kleenezzy thing well i done everything realy which has left in in some debt.
Any ideas would be great.
Kind Regards
kurt

  • I do Kleeneze, and make a bit. Have you tried selling stuff you have got around the house on Ebay. Any old thing goes. Clothes, half-bottle perfumes or aftershaves even. Shoes etc. Worth a try.

    This may sound stupid, but if kids can do it for pocket money, why not you? And yes, I saw the Apprentice a week or so ago!

    Get yourself a bucket, sponge and a few other items and then go door to door washing cars. If you're on a 3 day week, that leaves you 4 days. I reckon a car an hour for a fiver... £40 a day may not sound much, but it would build up over 4 days a week.

    If things are that bad, any part time or casual job is preferable to sitting at home watching the money go out.

    Hope this gives you more ideas,
