Have you used any of these yourself and if so, how was your experience so far?

I know it's in the back of your mind. The holidays are coming and you are not sure you are going to be ready financially to purchase those gift ideas that your sons, daughters, spouses, family and friends are going to throw at your really soon. As a SAHM and WAHM, I know all too well. Although, throughout the years I have found other sources of income for events such as this to bring in the extra dough and will share with you.... the ideas, not the cash.

Even if you work outside the home, you can still do these ideas in your spare time that are listed below. All you have to do is get started not now, but RIGHT NOW!

Consignment Sales. If you need to de-clutter right away, then you can take your items to a consignment shop. Your gently used items such as clothing, DVDs, electronics and other items can be sold to consignment. Be sure to call your consignment shop to see what items that may be in need so that you don't lug tons of things and not being able to sell them.

Sell Your Skills. Crafts, baked goods or services can be skills that you can offer for a price to others to bring in an extra income. You can even take your crafts or baked goods to a flea market or set up a booth at other craft shows or bake sales. Budget on what your supplies will cost, along with your booth and set a price for your goods to make a profit.

Run errands. If you don't mind picking up a few things from the grocery store for someone else while you are doing your shopping, or stopping by the cleaners on your way home, then you can earn a little money by helping someone else with their errands. This is a great idea when you may have older neighbors that may not be able to get out of their house much or any other person that may need help with a few things.
