5 Ways to Make Extra Cash

Get a part-time job

One of the easiest ways to make some extra money is getting a second job or taking more hours at your current job. If this is a possibility for you, ask around and see who is hiring! You can do plenty of part-time jobs that offer flexible work hours, such as delivering groceries, being a rideshare driver, or virtual assistant work. When you have some downtime, you can use this job to fill in your budget gaps.

Give your opinion

There are tons of websites offering surveys or other means for you to exchange your opinions for money. This could be by testing websites or products or just answering questions about your regular shopping habits. Some good places for giving your opinion for money include Swagbucks, TopCashBack, Pinecone Research, Google Opinion Rewards, or UberTesting.

 

Use cashback apps

Cashback apps are a huge lifesaver when it comes to earning money for doing very little work! My favorite cashback apps are iBotta, Fetch Rewards, Receipt Hog, and Checkout 51! These give you cashback for just buying groceries and other purchases just like you normally would! Another excellent option for online shopping is Rakuten or Honey, which can help you earn cashback and save money on your online purchases.

Use your skills to earn some extra money

Can you make something with your hands? Are you good with kids? You can use your skills to help you earn some extra money! Sell your artwork on Etsy or Craigslist, or offer to babysit or walk dogs for a friend. If you are good at something, chances are you can make a little side cash by offering your services to someone else! Facebook Marketplace and Fiverr are great places to help you get started selling your services!

 

Sell something

We all have stuff lying around our home that will never get used no matter how many times it shuffles from room to room. Get rid of the clutter in your home once and for all, and sell it! Do a search in your home for clutter that is just taking up space in your home and sell it! You can sell some items to declutter and Amazon, send your clothes to be sold at ThredUP or a consignment shop, or you can try selling your used goods on Craigslist or Facebook. You can also download apps such as Close5 to help you sell your items, depending on what you’re looking to sell.
