Make Money From Home

Make Money From Home


So if you need some extra pocket cash, here are 27 different things you can sell from home.

Advice:
Are you a math whiz or a tech guru? Do you know a foreign language? Then cash in on your knowledge on sites like Brain Mass or Create Pool. Simply browse the questions, give an answer, and get paid. Each site works differently, so visit each for specific details.
Be sure you check out this post — it has 11 different sites where you can sell your expertise!
Art:
Do you love to paint or draw? Then sell your art online at ArtPal, they accept paintings, prints, photography, sculptures, handmade jewelry, and crafts. Best of all, there's no fee to join.
Baby Gear:
Is your baby all grown up? Then sell your used baby furniture, gear, toys, and clothes at a Just Between Friends sale. At JBF you simply bring in your items to a local sale, price them, and then two weeks later you receive your consignor check in the mail. You can also try selling your gently used baby stuff on Craigslist or eBay.
Belly:
While this is a HUGE commitment and undertaking, it can be very lucrative if you’re healthy, the right age, and you have the right mindset. Being a surrogate (carrying someone else’s baby for 9 months) pays anywhere from $25,000 – $40,000, plus the cost of medical bills and treatments.
Big Ticket Items:
Do you have furniture, designer clothing, major electronics, or appliances that you no longer need or want? Then sell them on AmazoneBay, or Craigslist. Like a newspaper ad, but free, you’ll list your item and it will be up to you to follow through with customers. With Craigslist just remember to use common sense and general safety precautions when meeting people and accepting payments (cash only). With eBay you’ll list your items online, once they sell, you’ll ship them to the customer and you’ll get paid via PayPal. eBay takes a 10% fee from each item sold, otherwise, it is free to list your items.
Breast Milk:
Yes, you heard me correctly, breast milk! In fact, there is a whole website called, Only The Breast that is dedicated to moms selling and those looking to buy breast milk. $2.00 is the average selling price per ounce.
Books:
Do you have old books laying around? Sell them online at Cash 4 Books. Enter the book’s ISBN and get a quote. If it’s acceptable, send your books with their pre-paid shipping label. Once they are received you’ll be paid either via check or PayPal.
Clinical Trials:
Donate your body to science by partaking in a clinical research study. Use Clinical Trials.gov to locate studies around the globe. Compensation will vary depending on the type of medication, the length of the study, and the number of visits. Payments are usually made by check from the clinical research organization.
Clothing:
Do you have outgrown children’s clothing or styles that you no longer wear? Then sell your clothes on ThredUp. To get started, go to the SELL TAB and order a free Clean Out Kit. Once you receive the prepaid bag with shipping label, fill it up with clothes, shoes, jackets, handbags, and accessories and send it off in the mail. You'll receive a notification once ThredUp receives your bag and once they evaluate your items. ThredUp accepts around 60% of items sent in and you can transfer your earnings via PayPal or ThredUp credit. And if you sign up now, you can earn a $10 ThredUp credit just by using this referral link. ThredUp has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

Crafts:
Do you make gorgeous jewelry or cozy knit scarves? Then sell your handmade goods, vintage items, or craft supplies on the Craft Star or Etsy. It costs .20 cents to list an item for 4 months, or until it sells. Once you sell your item, Etsy collects a 3.5% fee on the sale price.
If you have a creative personality — here are some ways you can use your creative side to make money.
Egg Donor:
Are you young and in good health? Then donating your eggs may be a viable option for you. You must be between the ages of 21 – 32, a non-smoker, and in overall good health. Donors can make anywhere from $5,000 – $8,000 per retrieval. Want more information on being an egg donor? Check out this post from The Penny Hoarder.
Electronics:
Have old electronics laying around? Then sell your old smartphones, tablets, laptops, and computers on Gazelle. Simply find your gadget on their website, answer some questions, ship it off for free, and get paid via check, Amazon gift card, or PayPal. Gazelle has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
Old Jewelry:
Do you have jewelry from an old flame? Then sell it at a pawn shop, local jewelry store, or on a platform like, Out of Your Life. While Out of Your Life has an A rating with Better Business Bureau, I have not used them personally. Be sure to do your research before sending off your precious gems.

Direct Sales:
You've probably heard of heard of Avon — but did you know there are thousands of direct selling companies that sell fun stuff like on-trend jewelry (Chloe + Isabel), wine (Traveling Vineyard), and stylish clothing (cabi)? While you usually have to pay a small startup fee — the direct sales industry is a great way to sell new products from home.
