As most of us know, college is expensive. Even after all the scholarships, loans and the job you have, you still don't have a lot of money. So here are a few tips I learned on how to make extra cash in college.
1. Sign up for surveys
One of the survey companies I'm apart of is www.surveysavvy.com. It’s completely free and you get paid for answering questions! Once every week and every few weeks you'll receive a survey either to ask your opinion on a product or just some questions and you'll receive points which turn into money or you can trade the points you make into gift cards.
2. Become a rep
Many different companies love college students to be a rep for them. PuraVida for example always has college reps. You get free products and you get people to buy these products and you'll receive 10-20 percent commission. Different brand ambassadors are Vineyard Vine, Amazon and hundreds more. So apply for something that interests you and you could get easy cash.
3. Sell old clothes
I never knew how much clothes I had until I was packing up for college. There were so many Hollister shirts and skirts I haven't worn since my freshman year of high school. So every year I bring a big pile of clothes, shoes, bottoms and jewelry to Plato’s Closet. It all depends what they want and what's in style but you could end up getting 10-50 dollars back just by selling your old clothes!
4. Review music for money
There is a website called Slicethepie, you listen to different types of music and you get paid! While I haven't tried it, I just spent a half hour reading reviews and their pretty good!
5. Pick up groceries
Https://shoppers.instacart.com is a website where you can earn money by shopping and delivering groceries. You can even schedule it around your schedule.
While you won't be making $200 a week, the small amount of money you make add up in the long run.
