in Debt-free wannabe
I think the quickest way to battle my debt and get it down quicker is to get a second income, I can do it from home evenings, weekends or don't mind going out!

Please recommend me your part-time job, thank you.

    ebay - sold a whole load of rubbish for £500. Alternatively I would recommend supermarket work - gives you a nice discount too

    Whenever we're hard-up and I can do it, I do pub work. It's very sociable, almost like being paid for going out!

    I also repair jewellery, but this is not for the faint-hearted. My goodness, I hate stringing pearls!

    As of yet no one has come forward but if they do i would on a paid basis chase bailiff companies for a small fee. Just a thought you are going to get back money you have otherwise would not have got.

    I work in a car show room at reception 9.-6pm. It is boring however nets me an extra £160.00 per month. Hope this helps.

    Bar work is good however getting home at night can be a right pain. Best of Luck.

    If you look on https://www.jobcentreplus.gov.uk you can search under weekend work within say 5 miles of your area.

    Good Luck.

    I used to do Virgin Vie, now I do mainly Ebaying, Car-booting and a little bit of babysitting.
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    one life, live it!

    Do you have a hobby that you could get paid for?

    I know my friend makes cards and knits, she sells her crafty things at local fetes/ ladies nights and to order.

    I have a 2nd job working as a singer at the weekend as that is my hobby. I am in a band - we play at weddings, corporate functions etc and can be quite lucrative.

    Somebody else I know compiles crosswords for the local newspaper.

    Can you do bookkeeping? Lots of small businesses need bookkeepers rather than accountants.

    good luck
