I need money!!


Question Posted Tuesday October 22 2013, 6:41 pm

I'm 13 and I'm a girl and I really need money to buy... You know stuff girls like!! But I need money! I looked up something's but they won't work for me. I don't have any training to babysit, I don't want to walk dogs, it's to cold for lemonade right now. I don't want anything to complicated. My parents can't afford to pay me and do allowances, so I need something to do! Please help :)

Do some crafts and sell them, help younger kids to do their homework, there is no way you can get free money and you can set the rules of what you want or do not want to do, life is not working in this way, sorry

If you know people that have kids, they'll most likely hire you to babysit rather than someone who doesn't know you. You normally don't need training for people who already know you, unless it's a baby. If it's a kid who's around 5 or older, you won't have too much of a problem. Just need to know how to entertain.
Walking dogs is easy.
Honestly, if you get any opportunity to work, you should take it, especially if it's a simple job like that and you "need" money.

Some other ideas..
-You can watch people's dogs while they are away.
-You can watch people's houses while they are away. Like check up on it, keep it clean, ect.
-Wash dogs
-Wash cars
-Clean houses. Windows, dusting, mopping, sweeping, ect.
-Mow lawns
-Clean gutters
-Clip hedges
-Rake leaves
-Take trash to curb. This one is really easy. You obviously shouldn't ask for a lot of money. Maybe like a dollar or two for taking people's trash to the curb. If you do like 20 houses, it's 20 bucks.
-Help elderly. You can help them with simple chores like cleaning and getting them groceries.
-Yard Sale
-Instead of lemonade you can do tea or cider.
-Have a party and have everyone bring soda or something. Keep the cans and bottles and turn them in. You surprisingly make quite a bit of money from that. You can even go door to door and ask for their cans.
-You can sell crafts. I mean the holidays are coming up.
-Deliver newspaper. The age requirement is different everywhere so you'd need to look into that.
-Sell baked goods.

If you have any special talents, put them to good use. Like baking, sewing (Blankets and pillows aren't too hard to make), blogging, writing, or if you're good in a subject in school, you can tutor kids for a few dollars.
Be creative and you'll get your money.

there are a few ideas you can check out.
You should google free samples for teens --and free stuff for teens...they have so much free almost everything online, stuff girls like included :) and it fun to get mail when the stuff starts coming.
If all else fails, you might want to reconsider walking dogs. They are some peoples "kids" and ive seen people making some decent money walking dogs.
Good luck :)
