      Selling stuff is always good. Check your loft/parent's loft for things that are no longer wanted or needed, and start hitting Ebay.

      a suitcase of lego could actually get you £100-£200 on ebay! seriously you should check out how much it actually goes for, if you take the time to sort it and sell it for example as 1kg of white bricks, 10 lego men etc etc you should make at least £100.... i did! then you can get £100 worth of euro millions tickets lol

      I can wholesale you a pallet of Gillette fustion gel @ £1.20 each, possibly £1.00 each if you have 3+ pallets. (Tesco price £3.79each) 640 bits to a pallet returns you £1280 with an out lay of £768. OR i will sell you some Fusion handles @ 80p each (Tesco price is £4.99 each). Min order is 10 cases with 46 in each returns you £1150.

      If your interested let me know i will always do a deal on a few pallets. Easy money and eveybody wants fusion.

      Or anything like makeup or olay/loreal creams. Nurofens or Ambi pur, anything thats out in the shops at the mo i can get you to sell on and for no money at all. Braun heads, i sell 4 for £5, wholesale £2.50-£3 (tesco price £14.99+ pack of 4) Braun shavers or toothbrushes etc. Any type/make of razor blade. New King Of Shaves Gel and razor.

      that wholesale ebay lark is a lot of time and effort for not so much money

      If you have loads of room and some time then buying written off cars and stripping them will earn you money but will require some outlay.

      find something your good at and then offer it as a service.

      theres always part time evening jobs or at least there used to be if you want to temporarily boost your finances.
