    Begging.
    Fraud.
    Stealing.

    Okay, so the last two arnt legal but im sure its possible to earn £60 a week using a combination of the three methods I suggest.
    When dealing with the CSA its important to note that it is commonly accepted as unfit for purpose, and by default this also means the staff are unfit for purpose.

    Neither is the first one. The police may turn a blind eye, because it is not worth the bother, but it is still illegal.

    Although I seem to remember the European court deciding that prosecuting a someone for begging would be a violation of their right to free speech!

    Ok - maybe i need to pad this out a little! I tried to keep it brief so we only deal in the actual detail. Therefore im asking for one line of extra detail per suggestion on ho the money is made!

    So 3 suggestions with only one line of detail!!

    Lets go..............:T
  • My brain is a bit numb at the moment, but to make £60 you could try spending £60 less in a week. That probably is not as stupid as it sounds if you think about it.

    That's not at all stupid, in fact, if you can do it, it is the best thing to do.

    If you think about it, save £60 and you have £60 all to yourself. Earn £60 and you have £60 with the tax man wanting his share.

    Well, from a standing start, not very.

    You could do overtime at your job.

    You could register as a care assistant with a nursing agency. One night a week in a care/nursing home is probably that, much more for Saturday nights or bank holidays. This can't be done next week though, as CRB checks etc take time.

    As has already been mentioned, party plan is good, but it takes time to build up a customer base, and easy money it is not, if you want to deliver great customer service and keep your customers.

    Give more than is asked for, a fourth suggestion is to help out local house-bound people, gardening, oven cleaning, collecting shopping for the housebound, window cleaning, odd jobs etc.

    Ooh I agree completely :) I have cut my food bill in half just by looking at what I already have in my cupboard and freezer and just buying the bits I need to go with the sauces,rice,pasta,etc that I already have :) I have also started cooking recipes from scratch and it's amazing how much cheaper this is to do!
