Make Money Quick - SKINT!

suz_87

Hi

I am looking for some suggestions to make some money quickly!

I literally have £49.87 left until 31st January and I need to pay for petrol to work and back ( 30 mile round trip 5 days a week) and food!

I can't ebay as I only have access to internet at work and they have kindly blocked access to ebay! Petrol is running low so any suggestions how to make money super quick would be appreciated!

Also I know you will probably suggest trying to car chare but I need to use my car for work throughout the day so can't really do this.

Any suggestions will be soo gratefully received!

Thanks

Can you not go to a local library or similar to use the internet there and Ebay? or try a car boot sale or offering things for sale locally? Can you do some temporary evening work as like a waitress or whatever (my friend used to do this through an agency when she was skint). Have you bought anything recently that you haven't used and can take back?

Hi Have you got anything you can sell on gumtree, preloved or local papers?

How about any vouchers like tesco coupons or boots points you can use? Any Family that can help you out with a sub?

In the meantime have a look through your cupboards and meal plan.

Also, drive your car as economically as possible- for example drive at 50 mph at the highest, check your tyres and get anything that isnt needed out of the car so you can get as much mileage as possible.

Hope this helps!

Ask work for a £100 sub?

No overdraft at the bank?

Honestly, I'd just ask a family or a friend for a bit of money and pay them back later...

The problem is OP needs money now!

Any job probably won't pay her until 31 Jan, unless she finds one that pays cash in hand daily or weekly. £49.87 won't fill the fuel tank of most cars. I would suggest drastic measures such as pawning jewellery or other items of value until you can redeem them at the beginning of next month.

I don't recommend the following, but it may be a necessity, one of these pay day loans or companies which loan money on very short term basis. Beware of excessive fees though.

5-Watch "The Real Hustle" for some awesome ideas that can actually work.
6- part time job in a strip club (actually, scrap this one)

try offering to deliver leaflets in your local area for takeaways, you can get £10 per 1000 delivered and you don't need to go further than the area you live in, I do this sometimes and find that 1000 takes about 1h to post them all! Now if you're clever and ask all the takeaways the same question, you can deliver the leaflets for each one all at the same time! Most places where I live don't mind about this but it's always better to check with them all first especially if they are all indirect competition with each other! Also try selling unwanted stuff in the groups on facebook look for things like Stuff for sale in (where you live) there is no fees like eBay and people come and collect it from your house and pasy cash when they take it!

Let us know how you're getting on!

suz_87 I was in a similar situation to you so I rejoined Kleeneze and it has really helped me. There is an option to start for free and it may give you that £30-£50 a week you are looking for?
Hope this helps,
Jenny

Can you not be cheeky and complete surveys and such like at work?

I doubt very much they would have these sites blocked, but i dont know.
