I am looking for a creative way to earn about $600.00 twords our Disney trip. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
 
Sell some of your belongings on eBay. Do you have any old GI Joe's? I know someone who buys them.
 
Have a yard Sale, let your kids sell cookies at the sale with a sign saying they are working their way to WDW!
 
I teach yoga, fitness (aerobics), kindergyms (similar to Gymboree) and art classes.

Pick something that you do well (a service) and sell it!

Do you like to type? Be an at-home secretary, do letters & resumes.

Babysit kids after school!

Dog sit.

BTW. I earn up to $45.00 for 45 minute yoga workshops. Three years of savings got us a WDW trip that we spent without worry.

YOU CAN DO IT!
 

They just passed the budget and each adult will get 300. or 600 for familys! It should be here in Aug. or Sept. according to what I have herd. I would also start a jar of change and put money you would use for extras in it also! My DS has over 100. that he saved in one month with this method! We cashed in 2 weeks ago but he kept saving and will be able to buy anything he wants without my or DH permission! You could allways cut the budget and go anyway! Eating only counter service helps and eating breakfast in room can help alot! You can allways go with 4 day hoppers and have a day or 2 at the pool or the beach! Priceline is great for cheep clean rooms! We went in Dec. and stayed for 33. a night at the Grosvner in DD and had a blast! We are using Hotwire for our car next week becouse all the fees and stuff are included and we have a full size for 71/2 days for 167. or 168. with all the taxes and stuff. I hope you can go and have a great trip!:D
 
Any kids old enough to mow lawns this summer?Wash cars?Do a baby-sit "trade" co-op and you won't need to be spending $5+ per hour when you need a sitter...STOP going to fast-food places...check into your school and see if they offer a clothing re-sale program, ours offers .70 cents on the dollar for items sold....give Disney Dollars for upcoming events and that will cover your souvineer costs and maybe even some food...just wish they worked at the gas pump:( Check out the local Y or parkdistrict...they are usually looking for seasonal help with stuff, and may only be 1 day a week or week-end.Every time you pick something up to buy..write down the cost and put the item back, at the end of the week take that total and transfer it to a savings account or give it to a friend in an envelope marked DO NOT TOUCH 'TILL DISNEY.
Good Luck!
 
RESEARCH COMPANIES

Try to locate research companies in your area that paid for your trial and reviews of there products.

I did a couple for one company, but the pay sucked, only $10.00 per study for about 40 - 60 minutes od your time. And you have to drive there and back. But if you got the time, then you got $10.00 extra. I'm doing a study tomorrow night.

I just applied to another consumer company and they pay WAY better and it's closer to my house. I had one friend make $90.00 for a two week study. She just picked up the product and went back four times in 2 weeks. Now that's worth $90.00! Another friend and the same company made $500.00 for a 6 month study!

I haven't a clue where to look for these companies. I just heard about these two word of month.
 
Get a part time job....strictly for Disney...work one or two nights or days a week and weekend day..in a short time even making minimum wage you would have your money.....:cool: :cool: :cool:
 
I'm waiting for that tax refund myself. :p

Save your change - you won't come up with $600 that way, but it's amazing how it adds up.

We're also going to have a garage sale this summer to make some spending money for our trip. I've told my kids that if they pick out some of their old toys that they never play with (believe me - they have more than they need) and sell them in the garage sale, they could keep the money to use in WDW. They were actually (surprisingly) enthusiastic about the idea!
 
I am working for six weeks part time, 9-12, and my children will be coming with me for FREE...

I am assistant directing a summer camp. The free childcare definetely helped me make this decision.

The pay is cometitive, but its all going to disney.. Not a bad gig for June (last week) to the first day in August., and only M-F.

Also I coordinate birthday parties, I have done about $600 this year doing this as well.

I babysit as well, teach gymnastics, (both KID friendly)
 
I have a friend that spread the word that she was collecting cans to put the money toward her trip. Lots of people can't be bothered to recycle them so they are glad to have her pick them up and get rid of them. At .05 a can, it starts to add up. She has already gotten almost $200 in 2 months.(with July 4th coming up, you could do a killing in can returns)
 
If your married with children...George W Bush will be sending you $600.00 starting in July thanks to his tax cut plan
 
We did the cans and bottles and change route we even put the money we would have used for scratch tickets away or if we did buy one and win that money went away for our disney fund. Since december we have saved 2,000.00 and my 4 kids will split it. my whole family were giving us cans and bottles really did payoff.
