Nice post! It is amazing how much loose change you can find in your car, purse, pockets, couch, etc… And don’t forget to recycle all your bottles and cans, it adds up quick!

I sell books at half.com. It works out great for me. I make between 25-80 bucks a month. I live in a college town and always frequent my thrift marts after graduation to purchase text books for next to nothing! Then I list them on half.com and sell. It is VERY easy and the buyer even pays shipping.
Great and timely post FD!

I’ve done the following things to make quick money:
- sell stuff on Craigslist and eBay.
- bounce at a local bar.
- sold my beater car
- rolled up my spare change in my coin sorter
- surveys – I’ve participated in some surveys for quick cash, up to $100. Doing another one tomorrow for $75. Easy money and it’s fun.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way – you can always make quick cash if you get creative.

FYI: I found a great directory of plasma donation centers here: http://bloodbanker.com/banks

Nice list. I would say working harder at your job for a bonus is the best idea. You don’t want to be dividing your attention away from your main income source and risk slipping on the job.

Donating plasma is a good, simple, easy way to make quick money. Can get about $20-$25 for about an hour visit, can do once a week even.

If you don’t want to drain fluids and get stuck with needles, I think selling old crap like you mention is a great way to clear space and make some extra money.

I may have to check out CashCrate as I’ve tried other survey sites to a very dismal payout. It was never worth my time as I always seemed not to qualify. But, if I really needed money, I could sell my DVDs. I’d cry my eyes out because it’s the one thing I love. And, I do watch every one of those DVDs repeatedly. I don’t have cable, I prefer movies. And I do have Netflix. So, worse case scenario, I could make some pretty quick cash. But, it’s a last resort option for me.

I think picking up a second job as a waiter/tress would be a good one to add to the list. If you’re good with people, a short shift could result in some quick cash. It’s not for everyone though, so I only recommend it to those who can handle it.

Nice list of options, Frugal Dad! Thanks for sharing!
