But I dont really want to do somethign like that.
I just want somethign small to get me some cashh.
does anyone hava any ideas ??

Since you're only going to be 14, your options are very limited. The only places I can see is: a grocery store or a restaurant. Most places hire 16..15 if you're lucky. But when you're 14, your only other choices are babysitting & housesitting. But if you're really desperate for immediate cash, try going through your closet for gently used clothes, shoes, & other items that you don't wear or use anymore. You can either bring them into a secondhand store in exchange for cash, or put them up on ebay. (To use Ebay, you'll need a parent or anyone 18+ to make you an account.)
