      *Washing windows, Cleaning garages, mowing or raking yards - put up flyers and start knocking on doors if you have to.

      *Babysitting is not just for the young teens,

      *Resumes - offer to build resumes for people, put up fliers or ad in paper or if craigslist allows it on craigslist. Put fliers at college

      Now this one will take longer to get money but you will get money if you have any gumption, get up and go.

      *TAKE a tax course through LIBERTY (my fav) or HR BLOCK. When finished revise your older returns to recoop any lost dollars. If you need extra money you can work during tax season as preparer. Tax preparation you can do on your own on the side or you can work through the companies that train you. For weekends this is the perfect way to earn extra money quickly.
