Extra Money!

So would you like to get extra cash? Of course you would, so I am going to give you a few tips on making money for unexpected bills, Christmas, or just having something to put back.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Internet
  • Clothes
  • Metal
  1. Step 1
    Writing
    Writing

    First, if you are reading this you must be on the internet right? Therefore, you can write articles and open blogs to earn money. Writing for Ehow is a great way to earn money and meet new people. You can also visit other sites that allow you to earn money and not leave your home.

  2. Step 2
    Cans
    Cans

    Next, gather the extra scrap metal you have and sell it. This can be anything from aluminum cans, to stoves and refrigerators. Anything that has metal in it can be sold to the scrap yard. Call you local yard and see what they take that you may have laying around, you may be surprised.

  3. Step 3
    Clothes
    Clothes

    Also, clean out your closets. There are probably tons of clothes and shoes that you or your family can't wear or don't wear anymore. You can then sell these items on Ebay for a profit. If not, visit your local consignment shop and have them sell the clothes and you get a check!

  4. Step 4
    Get check
    Get check

    Finally, remember to be patient. There are times when your articles may not earn as much or you don't receive what you think you should. In this case, work harder! Ehow has been a great place to earn, and they are quick to help when needed. Remember to make friends and be willing to accept their articles for reading. It is a team effort, and that is how you become a better writer. Learn from others. Good luck!

Tips & Warnings
  • Start today! The longer you wait, the longer before you have the cash.
  • Gather old things and sell them.
  • Be patient, it requires time, but is worth it in the end.
