I have a car... how can I make money?

Hi All,

I have a company car and pay tax for my petrol so essentially its a fixed amount each month regardless of the milage.

As petrol is "free" or at no extra cost is there any work out there where I could take advantage of this?

Delivering mail? Catalouges? Needs to be around full time work, just for some extra pennies for wedding.

Thanks :)

    How about delivering for your local take away? Again if your insurance allows it of course.

    You need to check out whether your firms car insurance will cover you for this type of work first.

    I never thought about that! Good thinking :)

    Hey Donk :)
    Funnily enough I have started back with Betterware to save for my wedding - in less than 4 weeks!! So far in two weeks I have earned 71 pound - not a lot per hour because I walk everywhere, I don't drive :) But the way I see it is that I am getting free exercise and 71 pound is still 71 pound that I didn't have :) It will be easier for you having a car but previous posters are right - check with company about the insurance first :)
    Good luck :)
    Jenny :)

    By the way - Betterware is absolutely free to do! Catalogues, order forms,etc are delivered to you by your co-ordinator and they also deliver the orders to you :) You deliver the orders and collect payments from your customers and your co-ordinator will collect the payments minus your commission,(20%), the following week along with your next lot of orders :)
    Can be hard work but such a simple concept that most people can do :)
    Hope that helps :)
