Please help me - I'm short of money and I need some

Hello, I'm emeita and I'm 12 years old. That means I can't work or drive or do a paper-round!!
But have you go any other tips for me on how to make money - really quickly?????
Thankyou, luv em x

Mow lawns, baby sit, walk dogs, things like that. Put up posters that say the things you can do and leave a phone number.

Those people just gave you the idea of baking brownies but they did not tell you some ingredients. Here's my ingredients:

Ingredients:
1 cup cocoa
1/2 cup butter
2 cups sugar
2 beaten eggs
1 cup sifted flour
1/2 "TEASPOON" baking powder
1/2 "TEASPOON" salt (careful with the salt "not too much")
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions:
mix: cocoa, butter, beaten eggs (then mix)
add: sugar (then mix)
add: sifted flour, baking powder, salt, vanilla
pour in 8-inch square pan.
sprinkle nuts(just fill in every space)
Bake at 350 F
about 45 minutes
in a GREASED pan.
(yields 16-25 depending on how you slice it)

Add 25 percent from how much you spent or go to some bakery and see how they set the price. You may copy the price. Make it sheaper a little. The reason why their price is like that because they have bakers. If you will bake it on your own and sell it on your own, make the price lower.
Close your computer and make some money!!!

Have you tried asking your relatives? Mine always give me money and I'm 17.
Also, try working at a local bakery (not Brumby's or Baker's Delight since they require a resume)
Or anywhere where they give you cash wages.
OR you could do dog-walking. That's probably the best and most realistic job to make quick cash. Also fairly safe. But look out for pedophiles, ok?
Good luck!

cutting grass .helping older people around the house.doing grocery's of old people. Day time baby sitting

Chores around the house are always a good bet. I know it sounds lame, but if you have a major biking/running/walking path selling drinks/refreshments on a hot day can be profitable on a small scale. Ask neighbors/family if they need help with lawns house, etc. If you're creative, try to come up with an answer to the question: What do people need over the summer?. Then figure out how to sell that. Ex, a friend of mine a few years ago made her own mini summer camp for fractions of what the 'real' summer camps would cost, and made over 1000 dollars during the summer.

Quick money is harder, though. If you live near a major city and can play an insturment well, just go play on the side walk for a few days. You get some cash. Also, if there are any music festivals/pothead conventions, SELL BROWNIES. Where there is weed, there will be an insane demand for excellent brownies.

Babysit, walk dogs, have a carwash, mow lawns.

Have you asked your parents for extra chores they could pay you for? Washing windows or blinds, stuff that needs doing but nobody ever gets around to it? How about baby sitting for the neighbors? Do you have a lot of toys and sports equipment that you no longer use? You could have a garage sale or better yet, ask your parents and the neighbors for things you can sell at a garage sale and negotiate a percentage of the take for your organization, advertising with home made posters you can make, sitting out in the yard doing the work it takes to run the sale? I hope these ideas help you. Nothing good in this world comes easy I'm sorry to tell you my friend. But you will certainly be proud of earning some serious cash for yourself if you work hard. Good Luck!

my girls made friend with the kid that did the paper round and offered to help do their round with them for a small fee.you could do chores for your mum and dad or grand parents.f you like small pets like hamsters you could go into the pet shop and ask will they pay you to clean out their cages,our local shop has a young boy doing just that and he gets Â£10.you could walk someones dog but make sure its a nice safe dog and keep it on lead.you don't want to get it run over.clean a neighbours hutch or cage.lots of people don't like doing that.offer to wash cars do bits of gardening(be careful with electric though.)get your sawdust direct from wood yards or equestrian(horse)centres,check its dust free and clean with no nails or anything in.i buy a massive bale of sawdust for Â£4 and the pet shop sell same one forÂ£10.i also get massive bag hayÂ£1.20 its Â£3.99 at pet shop.so if money is for hamsters their are cheaper ways to own one,you need to shop around for supplies that's all.good luck

make cookies or brownies and sell them around your neighborhood or to your friends at school. Also sell lemonade on hot days.

Hi Emeita,

You could try doing extra chores around your house and seeing if your parents will give you an allowence for it. You could also mow your neighbors lawns as a job. Do your parents trust you to baby-sit? You could earn money by baby-sitting.

Best of luck to you :)

Em,

If breeding the hamster is why your in need of money then as as before, don't breed them.. Also if you think it's easy to sell them to make money - forget it. I have only adopted out from my rescue 4 animals since April and I got only $10 to help on a $200 a month food, litter, cage, toys, and vet care bill. This can vary up and down depending on how many small animals we care for. Where I run it from my home, we have no other expenses except a gas bill to fill the truck up for going on a personal delivery or picking up a small animal in need. We wrather take the animals to the adoptive parents then they come to my home where we have a blind unpredictible wolf hybrid. We can't separate her from us or she goes crazy and tears things up. She'' by 12 yrs on June !st, as I'm typing this now is her b-day, her name is Zora. I've had her since birth and is only 1of 2 that survived from a litter of 9 wolf hybrid cubs.

At your age there are many other things to do. Sit down and write a list of things you enjoy doing, next think of jobs/chores for others you could do, now match your likes with these jobs/chores. So if you enjoy brushing, combing, and bathing dogs, then ask neighbors if you can give their dog(s) a bath for a small fee. If you like gardens, for a fee offer to plant veggies or flowers for others. My adult son loves working on mowers, but has severe medical problems where he can't hold down a full or part time job due to a birth defect. He had to find a way to give himself pocket money (mom pays for everything else) and to relieve boredom. Now he's got neighbors asking him to work on their mowers, when he does a good gob the tell others and now he's got calls from 20 miles away for help with their mowers because he does good work. Now he does have a back-up, the mower shops in town that he's friends wih the owners of both shops. They even turn to him for parts they can't find or buy any longer. He's had people drive for 3 1/2 hours just to buy a $20 part when they heard of him by word of mouth. He was 17 when he started this when my mower broke down, 4 years later he's still at it and my mower is still broken, but he's rebuilt and sold/traded nearly a dozen riding and push mowers and hundreds of used parts. He's also one of only a few people that believes in the old-fashioned way of buying/selling, you barter for other goods and that's why he's got a long line of customers.

PS Looks like most didn't read where you're only 12 and in many places you may not be old enough to baby-sit even your own sibilings. Like where I live you must be 16 to baby sit others children and 13 to watch a sibling. And your far too young for a pay check type job. Being 12 stinks right about now, I know. I have 11 yr old and 17 yr old girls. Shoot you can't even alow your child to stay home by themselves until age 13 or you can go to jail and get your kids taken by the county for neglect. I researched this one.
