Need Some More Money Ideas Please

Hi Folks
I'm looking for some more ideas to make a bit of money to pay off debts and maybe the odd treat or two. I'm currently a SAHM (and for the forseeable future), and I'm only available evenings for a 'conventional' job.
So far I've tried:
Looking for shelf stacking type jobs - nothing locally with suitable hours at the moment, keep looking
Ebay - selling my old things, very hit and miss
Party plan/catalogue distribution - cost me more than I made (I'm just not a sales person), not going there again!
Applied to Lionbridge (MSEr suggested) - no reply in two months, assume I wasn't successful.
Applying for online mystery shopping jobs.
Surveys - rarely get invites.
Have tried making cushions/bags etc to sell, but very few sales.
Child-minding was suggested, but it's really not for me.
Planning to start a perfume related business when I complete the training and certification.
Is there anything else that anyone can think of that I could try? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Have you thought about home based call centres?
there are quite a few although i'm not sure what shifts they offer, I know they offer part-time hours.
The ones I know of are:
teletech
arise
sensee - are recruiting at the min- ( I have an interview tomorrow)
I'm sure there are loads of others, but these are just the ones I know of.

If you have a natural ability to wri te and create stories, or can research, then there is lots of work available where web designers, magazines, in fact any industry need to promote their website and keep it up to date.... an idea, thats what I do! You have to build up your reputation and market yourself properly though, but a genuinely rewarding careerYou can bury a lot of troubles digging in the dirt
