How To Make Extra Money?
 
So most of you know I am saving for my z. I have put up flyers offering different things like car detailing and CA installs. But I want to make some more money. Anyone have any ideas?

I hear man whoring is booming this time of year. And you could sell a kidney on the blackmarket

Hit up swap meets, rummage/yard sales. Turn around and sell on ebay. Landscaping in your free time once a week for your neighbors.

Find a second job at doing what your really like to do. If you install audio (avatar?) then either find a second shop further away or go into business for yourself.......sale your audio install services via your local Craig's list...etc. Start by getting and publishing some written recommendations.

my 2 cents

This can make some money, though you lose the "cute" factor of being a kid. We use to do this when younger and after spending 10 bucks on supplies we turned around a profit of 40 bucks for four kids in a 6 hour day. Only did it a few times one year, but we knew how to sell the goods. :D

If you start doing audio installs 'semi-professionally' be very careful if you're not going to carry insurance. I had a good friend of mine that made one mistake (drilled into a master cylinder while punching through a firewall) that took his situation from bad to very worse. It may be in your best interest to try to get into an installer position at a best buy or local audio shop where the extra details (insurance, taxes, etc) are all taken care of for you.

Are you looking for something just on the side and until you get your Z?

- Landscaping is a good deal, especially if you have a large elderly community
- Go to nearby junkyard, collect some "in need" car parts (fenders, different panels, interior trims, dash pieces) for older cars and sell it on different forums, craigslist, etc. (a guy I know does this for MKIII/MKIV Supras and makes decent side money)

Unfortunately you live in a small town. I recommend looking into moving.
