Okay I'm super new to this. So here goes.

Extra income?

Have too many books? Go to a used bookstore that buys books, cds and videos. They usually give you a cheap price because they have to make a profit. But if the book is sitting in your house collecting dust, why not?

Have jewelry or clothes in good shape? Go to a consignment shop and pray they'll buy it. Don't regift, instead resell.

Other misc. stuff? There's the swamp meet and posting a cheap ad for a garage sale (apartment if you don't own your home like me.) Make sure you let things go cheap.

Problems?

Borrow money from a friend and can't pay back? Work it off by babysitting or doing some cleaning if your friend agrees.

There's a good sale and you don't have enough money for a big item like toilet paper? Half the price with a friend and take your share.

You're really desperate what do you do? There's selling your plasma but I wouldn't recommend it because you need good veins and you can sick. But if you're in dire straights contact home like E.T. or see if a church can help you out in the form of benevolence fund. Beware they're real picky on who they help.

Are you irresponsible with your money? Get a representative payee to handle your finances. Only people who are totally lost should do this because there's a fee.

Saving money?

Go to a beauty school for haircuts or let your hair grow longer.

I've been to a bakery outlet for bread that's out of date.

Don't buy nothing unless you absolutely need it.

Budget your eating out for the week or just stay home and cook your food.

Why am I writing this?

I'm an aspiring writer that's bored.
