What's a good job I can make some money at during the holidays?

I'd like to take a part-time job (or maybe two!) so I can save up some money during the winter holidays. I have already thought about applying down at the local mall. Can you think of any other places I could apply?

Maybe you could hang Christmas lights for homeowners or decorate their yards? Lots of folks just don't have time themselves anymore.

Also, advertise as a babysitter. The holiday parties are coming up too.

if you have a nice hotel they may be looking for extra help, there may even be a position where you work for tips in which you can make pretty good money.

Look into warehouses in your area. I got a job at amazon.com for the season, but I also looked at ups, fed-ex, and the k-mart warehouse. Alot of stores that have local warehouses hire people just until christmas to take care of the shopping volume going way up. Also most of the warehouses pay really well, because it's a physically demanding job.

Depending on what you're really looking for....but if you're 18 becoming a Mary Kay consultant might be a great job for you. You make 1/2 of everything you sell (which doesn't usally happen in a retail store) and you can work as many or as few hours as you want. Most new consultants start out making $25-30 per hour. And because it's flexible you choose how much money you make by choosing the number of hours you want to work.

This time of year, retail work is one of the best positions you can obtain. There are a lot of retailers that hire just for the holiday season. If you enjoy restaurant work, being a server is a good choice since you will always have money in your pocket. Also, a lot of people go on vacation during the holidays: might want to consider housesitting, petsitting, or just stopping by a home to pick up the newspapers/mail for the homeowner. I hope this helps you find something that will help you earn some extra cash this holiday season!

Here are a few sites I use to earn extra cash.

these two pay you to read emails and sign up for offers. Many of the offers are free.

this one pays you 2 cents for every email you read and it adds up quick.

this one is a lot like yahoo answers. Ask or answer questions, start or engage in conversations and chat with others and you earn money. The more you post the more money you make.

I'm not sure what you think of kids but babysitting could be a good way to earn money right now. Parents are going to be swamped with Christmas shopping, work parties and all sorts of things they need to do for the holiday season. Let your friends and relatives know that you are free to watch kids. Also running a small ad in your local newspaper or posting a sign on local bullitin boards at say your local groccery store can get your name out there. Good Luck!
