Odd Jobs - Odd Ways to Make Money on Thanksgiving
This Week: We are exploring the odd/cool ways you make money when you’re sitting around during Thanksgiving.Today, we’ll chat about a handful of ways to make money, whether you have an entire hour to spare or a few seconds. On Friday, I’ll leave your inbox alone. Know someone who’d get a kick out this newsletter?Share! Share! Share!Make Some CashIf you’re sitting around this week, stuffed from all the side dishes in the fridge, in need of a break from your family members asking you why you’re still single, or off work from your full-time gig (that’s always elevating your stress level), and you want to make a few extra dollars, here are some unique ways. Line HolderPeople will pay you to wait in line for them - whether at the DMV or at Best Buy for Black Friday shopping. You can make around $25/hour. Perfect for someone who likes to chill…just not on their couch. Find gigs here. DecoratorIf you have an eye for design and decor, get paid to set the table for other people’s Thanksgiving gatherings, put up Christmas decorations, or even string lights. Check out this awesome woman who does this. Create That CourseI’ve mentioned this before - creating an online course is such a great way to make passive income. Pick a skill, hobby, or interest and turn it into a course. Sell it on a platform like Thinkific and BOOM! Let the cash trickle in. If you have down-time this week, start building your course from scratch. Survey TakerIf you’re home watching endless TV, multi-task and make some cash with surveys. Here’s some places to go. Pet/Home SittingNeed a change of scenery? Sign up to be a pet sitter / home sitter this holiday season. Final Exam TutorWith so many students preparing for final exams, sign up to be a virtual tutor, especially if you’re a rockstar in that topic. Sales NewsletterIf you are great at sourcing deals, discounts, and sales - consider creating a for-pay newsletter that alerts your audience about the best items and the biggest sales. You charge $5/month. Deliver GroceriesWith so many gatherings happening right now, make cash delivering groceries through places like DoorDash or Instacart. OR call local stores and see if they need in-store or delivery help. Flip ProductsHunting for good sales this week? If you buy any in-demand products at a discount, consider flipping them on marketplaces (eBay, Facebook, Amazon) and make cash off the items you snagged. Rent Your SpaceRent your space, or your stuff, here’s how. Websites to Create a Profile OnWynter - Great to get paid to do surveys Upwork - Great to monetize skills and do long-term gigs. Fiverr - Great to monetize skills and do quick gigs. Task Rabbit - Great for one-off and odd tasks. GigSalad - Great if you want to put any kind of service on here, like photography, cooking, DJ’ing, etc. Pause the Cash & Volunteer InsteadWhile this newsletter is all about dishing out unique ways you can make some cash, today I want to share some ways you put a fork in the hustle and volunteer instead. Check out these organization’s websites for details on how you can get involved this week, even last-minute.
