    Have you got anything you could sell on Ebay or Amazon? Howabout an evening job in a pub?

    The easiest, quickest to start and most assured way to make £1000 in 2-3 months working from home, I have found, is tele-sales. Cold calling.

    If you can face it!

    You can quickly find jobs for £6/hour (+ phone bills paid, although they will expect you to probably have Option3) without too much hunting. Many have bonuses too.

    To get £1000 in 3 months is just £333/month. So at £6/hour you'd just need to be looking for 15 hours/week.

    Tele-sales work you can usually get as an immediate start.

  • How about taking ironing in ?

    Could you do private cleaning in someones home?

    Its something you can do in the evenings while the baby is asleep. :)

    Hi ZoeLouise

    Good luck with paying off your overdraft :)

    You could have a go at some of the free online bingo sites - the ones in this thread you get given an amount to try the sites out with but can keep any winnings.
    No Deposit (Cashcade) Bingo Sites - Post 572 for latest list

    Obviously you might not win anything but its nice if you can (just a little boring)

    Otherwise there are some good ideas in Martin's Boost your income article

    Hope this helps

    £1000 is pretty easy to make in 6 weeks if you take a look in the gambling loopholes board.
    Happy chappy

    You may think that you have nothing to sell but you have a baby,
    you must have lots of baby stuff you could put on there?
  • I recently put a few bits and bobs on that my daughter had grown out of and made about £30 on her clothes. Old mobile phones tend to sell well, I got £60 for one that wasn't even working! You'd be surprised what people but on ebay, I've even sold Make up that has not been used.

    What about having a car boot sale?
