Hi Ladies,

I just found out I have to have some dental work done and my insurance will only cover 1/3 of the procedure. I need to make about $1500-$2000 quick! (notice the teeth on this smiley guy!)

I'm looking for creative (and legal!) ideas to do this, without taking on a part-time job and missing all of summer indoors at some retail store. Here are some ideas I've come up with so far: Farmer's Market, table by my driveway (busy-ish road) selling fresh flowers and organic bread/baked goods, selling things I no longer need on Ebay, Fleamarket (outdoor) selling vintage home items, and a yard sale. Any other thoughts/ideas? I'm not opposed to doing indoor work (like writing/typing or other office type things) as long as I can do it in the comfort of my own home.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions! :)
-Joy

Good idea..

My daughter is always selling her cloths at consignment shops..
She never seems to wear them very long.. But seemed to have invested alot in them.. & she really does seem to get quite a good buck out of them..
That's a thought..
She does better selling them that way then i ever would at a yard sale..
i really like your thoughts of doing things right there at the house too though..

if you write, you could submit articles to www.associatedcontent.com
also if you have books hanging out that you no longer need, it's easy to sell them on amazon
