3 Free Ways to Make Extra Cash from Home for the Holidays
The holidays are fast approaching and with it, come additional expenses from
travel, gifts and decorating. For many families who are already barely getting
by, the holidays are a time of financial stress; however, they can offset the
expenses of the holidays by earning extra income on the side. Here are three
ways you make money without incurring upfront expenses.
1. Sell Your Unused/Unwanted Items on eBay or Amazon - Frugal families are
visiting eBay and Amazon to do their holiday shopping, so now is a great time
to get rid of stuff you don't want that could be of value to others. eBay is
great for clothing, toys, electronics, household items and novelty gifts. To
get the most from your eBay sales, take great photos and write descriptions
that accurately describe the item. Amazon is perfect for selling books and
DVDs and is easy because you don't have to take pictures. Simply enter the
item's name, write a description of its condition, pick a price and list. eBay
and Amazon are not free, but you don't have to pay anything until your item
sells and the fees are reasonable. In terms of how quickly you can make money,
eBay and Amazon lead the pack.
2. Provide a service - The holidays involve a lot of extra work for families
and businesses, which means many opportunities to make some extra cash. Ideas
include babysitting while families shop or while the kids are on break but
the parents have to work, home or business decorating and tree trimming, handyman
or cleaning services, photography, baking and addressing cards.
3. Get a seasonal job - Many businesses pick up during the holidays and need
additional help. For example, many mail order businesses hire extra customer
service reps during the holidays. Other types of help include virtual support
to manage inventory or customer contacts or subs to fill in while other workers
are a way. Use sites such as CareerBuilder and Craigslist to find seasonal
work that can be done at home.
The trick to making extra money during the holidays is to know what you can
offer and be proactive in offering it. Work-at-home opportunities don't show
up on your doorstep. You need to create the opportunities yourself. And with
the holidays right around the corner, now is a great time to get started.
