make money from home

Well this is going nowhere! I took the Cha-cha guide test and it said I “did not meet the criteria” umm, all you do is search and type! how could I not meet the criteria? but oh well. I can’t find anything to do from home. I don’t want to sell stuff, you know Partylite, etc.
Both my SIL and her sister are expecting babies and have to go back to work. I know they need sitters but neither one has asked me and I don’t know if it would seem opportunistic to ask? But other than babysitting I can’t think of anyway to make money and still stay home.

Well I found an ad on Craigslist and after some emails found the job is working as a Cha Cha guide. I had never heard of it before. Basically how it works is people text message questions and I sit at home and receive the messages. Then I Google the answer as quickly as I can and message them back. You get paid 20 cents a question, so obviously it’s not for everyone but if I can make an extra $50 a week just for fun I’ll be happy. You have to at least answer 200 questions a week but you can do more if you want. I still haven’t gone through with it yet, I have to download Firefox so I need my hubby to make sure it will work on our computer. I also have to take a test(how fast I type, look up the answers, accuracy) but I think I should do ok. I am pretty excited about it, and anxious to get started.

I did look into Cheerful Noise more and only one store I use honors their discounts, so I’m not sure it’s worth $35 a month. Plus I hate to bug people to join stuff.

Lately it seems money is getting tighter an tighter… I’m not sure if it’s our spending habits, the economy, or a combination of both. Now that my son is eating table foods our grocery bill has definitely gone up We go through 2 gallons of milk a week! And things always pop up- last month my car broke down and cost $700 to repair, the month before our dog needed stitches at $350! But whatever the cause, I am looking for someway to A)cut spending and B) make some money. But how? I won’t leave the kids at a daycare to work, and even if I did daycare for 2 kids would probably cost more than I’d earn! So I’ve been surfing the web for ways to make money at home. Yes, you guessed it. SCAMS EVERYWHERE. I was just about to give up when I came across a company called Cheerful Noise. Has anyone else heard about it? It’s like a club where you pay a monthly membership and in return supposedly get hundreds of dollars in coupons and a discount card. You can stop there, or you can refer people. Then when they sign up for the monthly membership you get a kickback, and they get the benefits of the membership savings. It sounds really good to me, but I am going to have to think and pray about it for a few days. But if anyone knows more or has tried it, please share! and if you think it’s a horrible idea, share that too!
