How to save money for disney trips? Working from home?

[aladdinsheart]

I don't have a job at the moment and I was wondering if anyone worked from home to make money and if they could help me out with tips and ideas of how to earn money from home?

I do easy stuff like perktv, gifthulk, swagbucks, quickrewards and I only do videos on all sites. i cash out for paypal. I do mturk too but i just do surveys on there. i make hundred easy a month with rewards programs. Mturk i can make about 200 dollars month on there. It only depends on how work I put in.

What about selling stuff you don't need? It takes me less than a minute to put an item on a facebook Swip Swap (local "online garage sale") group. I check for updates 3x a day, which takes about 2 minutes each time I check. I use "porch pickup" for almost everything so I spend no time or gas meeting up with people - my doormat is my ATM!
If I list 10 things in a day, that's a total of 10 min to list and 6 min to check if anyone has said they want my junk! I list most of the stuff I sell on facebook for $3-$7. So if I sell half of my 10 items I listed the first day I post them, that's a minimum of $15 for 16 minutes of work.
I always think I've run out of stuff to list, but then I open a drawer - or the garage and see dollar signs! I do sell on ebay a bit, but that's mostly my kids' clothes and DH's Star Wars collectibles, comics, etc. for the big money.

I run Swagbucks TV on my ipad daily until it hits the max (50 points I think). I do nothing but start it, so 0 minutes. That's a $5 Target or Amazon gift card every 10 days.

Spending an hour a day planning food and household purchases, couponing, researching new banks/investments/retirement witholding or plans might save you much more than spending hours filling out surveys. I saved $126 on my internet with a 4 minute phone call asking them to extend my intro rate. In 6 months, I'll call again. Easy money!

Buy a bank bonus coupon on ebay if the bank doesn't send them to you - Chase had $200 sign on bonus for checking and all you have to do is leave $1500 in the account for 6 months or put a $500 direct deposit into the account each month for 6 months. My $200 was in the account the next day.

You could do all of this, plus the surveys, mturk, etc. too and do quite well, I imagine!

OMG!!! You guys just opened my eyes to a lot of great opportunities! Thank you so much!

I definitely want to try mturk and the swagbucks tv idea! I also really like the porch ebay idea! Thank you a million times!!! <3

When you sell kids clothes on eBay do you sell them in lots?

I'm also wondering how someone said they could have their swabucks running on their tv. I have swagbucks but it doesn't auto-move to the next video you have to manually click it.

And for mturk how do you know what's a good hit? Do you do a lot of transcription work or something?

I rarely sell in lots as selling piece by piece (or sometimes outfits) works best for me. (I personally have bought lots on ebay that were such a deal I felt guilty!)
For kids' clothes it is much cheaper to send First Class (under 13oz) than over 13oz, so a little girl's outfit is usually under 13oz, but a big boy's outfit would go over 13oz. The plastic envelopes I use only weigh .3oz.
I always add the blurb about "Check out my other auctions! I combine shipping!" or note if I have something matching listed, and a lot of people will buy several items and save on shipping.

I run SwagbucksTV through my ipad and it automatically advances through the videos.

On my computer it makes me click through to the next video each time.

I probably could run it on my TV since we have internet on it but I think running it for several hours a day for 10 days would eat the $5 in electricity!

My phone is old and I can't run SBTV on it but I believe the program advances automatically through videos on phones as well.

That's awesome! I didn't know that! By the way they upped the daily tv points from 50 it looks like to 150 a day! Have fun

But yeah unfortunately I don't have an ipad so I guess I'll have to figure out a way to progress automatically with pc?

Does it work on your phone? My phone is not very smart but I think that's been mentioned as automatically advancing.

I do mturk too but i just do surveys on there. i make hundred easy a month with rewards programs. Mturk i can make about 200 dollars month on there. It only depends on how work I put in.

Out of perktv, gifthulk, swagbucks, and quickrewards which is your favorite? And how do you make money with mturk just the surveys? Thanks for much for your tips!

Make sure you're running the Swagbucks TV app, not just the regular Swagbucks one. It's a whole separate app that just runs the TV! Sometimes it'll freeze and you have to click to the next one manually, but for the most part you can start it and forget about it!

Can I run the app on pc? I don't have an apple device

My favorite is gifthulk because I only do surveys and watch videos. Next favorite is perktv and run to devices.

Mturk now i only do low paying surveys only because I like simple. Now that be said there is higher paying offers on there but I just stick surveys that what I am good at.

some sites that use that have best tips are:

http://www.workplacelikehome.com/forum/index.php I like this forum because it is understand. They have whole section dedicate mturk. That is where I got most of my tips from too. Look for greygirl post she is this site is wdw fellow like us.
