I'm guessing not, so tRy making a bunch of flieRs and distRibuting them on the bullentin boaRds at youR closest couple of gRoceRy stoRes; fRee advceRtising -- that's what it's theRe foR. Also, you can tRy putting an ad in the papeR. AnotheR option, f you'Re paRents appRove, and you'Re up foR the challenge, tRy baby sitting. HoweveR, baby sitting is a seRious matteR. Make shoRe you know exactly how to peRfoRm CPR on infants and toddleRs in case of emeRgency, and once that is all settled, you can add that to youR Resume. PaRents aRe moRe likely to give you theiR business if they feel theiR child will be safe with you. Also, tRy putting up flieRs on stReet coRneRs and in papeRs foR lawn mowing - big money to be had theRe; geneRally $20.00 - $65.00 peR good sized yaRd! I wish you the best of luck! Hopefully I've been of some help heRe. =D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
