Need to raise some money quick - any ideas?

Hi all,
As well as dealing with my debt (which I am doing with a snowball and paying off the highest interest ones first) I also desperately need to raise £900 by the end of the month.
Any ideas or suggestions please? What do you do to raise cash quick?
Overtime not plausable as I won't get it until end of July, and can't sell my body (before you say it, Lenny!!) as I would have to pay the punters to take me!!
I have two very young children, so there are time constraints also, but I'd be VERY grateful for any ideas or suggestions. Thanks all.....

Wow £900 in under 3 weeks :eek:
Could you Ebay anything that isn't nailed down
Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

Do what Spud says and also try Amazon for any books you have to sell. Ebay is good for out-grown children's clothes. Are there any larger items you could sell in the local free papers, such as furniture or baby related items no longer required?

Good Luck!
I have loads of stuff Queen Bess, I'm an uncontrollable hoarder!! Things like this I have tried to car boot before, but begrudge letting a £60 high chair go for £3 at a car boot sale!! Have a Rockport jacket and a Mackenzie jacket which were my brothers - I'll get them listed too!DFW #414, MoneySaver, Income Booster

Hi KB
About the only thing I could think of to add to what has already been said is matched betting.
It produces quick profits without risk if you do it right. It won't net you £900 in your timescale but as a supplement to ebay its definitely worth looking at.0 -

You can easily make £900 profit in no time exploiting the Matched Betting loopholes. You can start with as little as £100 and it will soon snowball.Only when the last tree has died
and the last river has been poisoned
and the last fish has been caught
will we realise we cannot eat money0 -

Yes please! Is that an offer?
Seriously though, what about mystery shopping? It won't get you £900 quickly, but it would help.postingalwaysposting wrote: »kells, make sure you list this weekend, i am sure its 1/2 price listing so techniaclly you could list for as little as 7p :j
