Here's A Crazy Way To Make Some Small Change Now....




Here is a crazy way to find money that I found online!

It seems that as part of an experiment a man "dropped" himself into a city with absolute NO money!

What was the first thing that he did to get some money real fast?

He went to some of the fast food places and went to the drive-thru window and fished around on the ground for some change because it is thought that people will drop some of their change and just be too lazy to pick it up (or they don't care!

This is an interesting little experiment and I think that it is something that I'm going to try myself just to see if it works!

Lord, I pray that I am never that desperate.

Well you'd be surprised at how "desperate" some people are to get money as quickly as possible! It's a very popular topic and lots of people are looking online to find ways to be able to make some money as fast as possible. I have a blog about delving into the world of taking paid surveys and affiliate programs online. The blog is called Paid Surveys Newbie. It's all about whether or not a lot of money can be made from taking paid surveys online. A lot of people swear by it and a lot of people swear AT it! But it's just one of the ways that I'm looking into to see if one can be able to make (at least) a decent living online.

Well, once I found some loose coins and in a day I had about 55p. Not much, however in the grand scheme of things.

Well I think the purpose of the whole thing is that it was an experiment to see how fast one could either find or make some money fast and he was able to do just that - which goes to show you that there is always a way - especially where money is concerned. Besides I'm a follower to the law of attraction and ANY money that I find I am very grateful for.

Easiest way to make money is to get rid of any quality gifts and unwanted items you have lying around the house. Examples are mobile phones, perfumes, bags, hair accessories, new and unworn shoes, thata sort of thing.

Personally, I have sold on many things that I didn't want or need quite successfully. Although this was many years ago, I don't see why you can't do it now. What some people throw out, others want, so you never know.

That's an interesting idea, and I am sure it can be profitable, the same as looking in the reject coins or change bins in vending machines. More and more though, as drive thru's are accepting credit cards, less coins are being used I would think.

I used to do the paid surveys. It's an easy way to make a few bucks but you can't make a living at it.

Mystery shopping pays more, but you have to leave the house to do that.

Hi, I have heard of this before but I guess I just kind of forgot about it :) It's a great idea for an experiment. My husband has almost super human eye sight. We were once at a sold out movie. In the middle of it he got up to use the rest room. When the movie was over he told me to wait and let every one out. Here on his way back from the rest room he spotted a $50 on the floor! I still don't know how he did it. It was pitch dark!
Very interesting blog. Thank you for sharing!

I have to say that I'm not to happy with the whole "paid surveys" thing. I have a blog about my progress being a paid surveys newbie and I don't think that I have made more than $10 (that I have actually spent).

In their defense however I do have to admit that I haven't devoted a major amount of time to it.

I still think that the best way to make money is to take something that you love and turn it into a business.
