Earn Extra Shopping Money

Ways to Earn Extra Shopping Money | ShopGirlDaily.com

 

I have spent most of my life broke, but none more so than when I first moved to Chicago in early 2004. I had a job I detested that barely covered my rent and utilities. (By barely I mean barely. I drove to work at the time, and had a friend not loaned me $20 I wouldn’t have been able to afford the gas to get to work.) While I’ve always loved shopping and finding good deals, it’s hard to do that when you don’t have two extra pennies to scrape together.

A few months after moving to Chicago, when I was feeling sorry for myself and crying over my weekly noodle pick-up from Joy’s Noodles, I decided it was time to figure out a way to make some extra money. I had a full-time job to which I had to commute and I wasn’t particularly keen on taking on a part-time job. Luckily, we live in the age of the internet and I started putting it to work for me.

Before I was a blogger, I tried out so many different programs and whatnot all in the name of making a buck online. Some were successful and some were scams. I lived and learned and while I never got rich, I was making enough from my internet endeavors to live frugally yet comfortably.

I thought I’d share with you all the ways that I’ve made money, both generally on the internet and as a blogger. None of the opportunities I share will make you rich, and some will only pay you in gift cards. Regardless, with a little bit of time, a computer, and an internet connection you should be on your way to earning a little bit of extra shopping money pretty quickly!
