I'd like or should I say I need to make extra money a month. Basically to pay back a small CC balance and just to cope with costs of living.
Was thinking of babysitting (I did this as a teenager for a few years and even childminded a toddler and baby for 1 year or so). Do babysitting parents want/need CRB checks these days? I do have a First Aid at Work Certificate (3 or 4 day course) but this didn't cover children. I'm good with kids too.
I would do Ebay but it seems as though there are less buyers there and less are willing to pay decent prices (as in past where I sold quite well).
Doing car boot sale tomorrow but more for my brother.
My mum did suggest maybe I tutor pensioners on how to use IT/PC (her and her friends have problems and I could do this at weekends/after work). I have all the certificates needed there.
I work as a Legal Secretary but no chance of a payrise until this summer though I could ask for training to say be a legal executive or paralegal as a colleague has mentioned.
Any other ideas? Is blogging a good idea? I do write a lot.
Any info would be helpful.

It hasn't launched so now is the time to get people in your "paymatrix".

I am contacting schools, scouts, churches, and other organizations to use it as a fundraiser. I'm also American and fundraisers seem to be more popular in the US. It's so easy to set up and no real selling, just sharing and stuff people are buying anyway at a huge discount so wins all around. Plus everyone earns 2% 5 levels deep.
