Hi! My husband and I are looking to buy our first home and money will be extremely tight! I would really like to be able to contribute to our finances. I have 2 children ages 8 and 9, the 9 year old having special needs (Asperger's Syndrome). Due to this, I really only want something I could do from home either on the computer, or whatever. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm really not interested in a selling/telemarketing situation. I also don't need to make a ton, just a little something to help contribute. Thanks in advance.

What can I do next?

Hi S.,

My name is D. and I could show you how you can save money and make some extra money buying the things you already buy. I know it sounds to good to be true. It is hard to go into details in an e-mail. If you have about 10 minutes to meet somewhere I could show you what I'm talking about. I'm 34 married and a stay at home mom of two kids a 2 year old son and a 5 month old daughter. Hope to hear from you soon.

Take care
D.

I started making homemade candles as a hobby. It is so easy and if you enjoy candles it is so fun. My averge selling price per candle is $8.00 and if you sell 30 candles that is over $200.00. When holidays come around like mothers day, Valentines Day and Easter I make about 50 candles. Halloween season is a great season for candles. with Thanksgiving and Christmas I make between 200-300 candles along with candle baskets. People spend a little more on candles during the holidays so the average price then is $12.00. I only do it as a hobby and even if you did it part time you could make good money. If you are interested just let me know and I can give you the rundown on what you need.

There is always Mary Kay...
I know it's "selling," but the product really sells itself. I have been doing this for over 7 years, and I work it around my 2 1/2 year old. Only 2 hours a week will get you extra cash--I promise! Would you at least like to hear about it? I would be very happy to chat in person or over the phone--coffee? No strings attached--just love to share the info!

Hi S.,
I am not sure if you ever found anything to do at home. I am 41 years old Mom of two and a Grandma of 1 and have been looking for something to do at home for years. I have never found anything legite. I tried a MLM company for a while, but it was very time consuming. I ended up in Direct Sales. I like it, it gets me out of the house a couple of days of the week and then I do allot of catalog and online parties. The product is great and so is the company. If you would like to look further into it my website is http://www.signaturehomestyles.biz/letshavefun. You can call me at ###-###-#### if you have any questions. K.

Hi S. (love the name)...

Are you just looking for a "job" you can do from home...or do you want to start an actual "home business?"

If you just want a job...try looking at www.momportunity.com. You may be able to find some things you like on there. If however you are interested in working for yourself...I am a SAH travel agent (and have 2 more businesses).

As an agent...I am able to earn 70%-90% EVERY time someone books travel from my site (including car rentals, hotels, airfare etc). I also earn that same commission...if I book any type of travel for myself. There is also an opportunity to do the marketing side as well...but you don't have to!

Here are the sites to my home businesses:
www.thefabulouslife.gotraverustravel.com
www.holyteaclub.com/fabulousme
www.mypowermall.com/biz/home/47813

Contact me at any time to talk!
