“Serving at a restaurant, then see if you can move up to bartending as fast as possible. You can make approximately $250 in tips from Monday to Thursday at a medium-end spot.”

“I paint curbs in my area. I do 5-10 a week on a slow week and make $25-200 per curb, depending on how much artwork they want.”

“Become a notary. People come to you, and it’s a fast $10 sale on eBay. You pull your parts from junkyards and get glovebox books, license plates, ashtrays, and miscellaneous items that sell on eBay.
You control your work hours, but it will take longer than a part-time job.”
LYFT
![idea Young smiling guy with finger up, dressed in a blue t-shirt on a light background.](https://mrsdaakustudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/aha-man.jpeg)
“I drive Lyft, and it’s not bad in my market (Minneapolis). I have a regular 9-5, so I drive an SUV on Friday and Saturday evenings with a half day on Sunday, usually putting in 24-28 hours. I spend about $120-150 in gas and make $800-1200. The best part is pure flexibility.
You can also write off car wear and tear at $0.57/mile nowadays. Get a different insurance that won’t be invalidated if you ride share.”
TUTORING

“Tutoring! Depending on your qualifications, you can make around $500 plus a month, charging $35-60 an hour.”
APP SIGNUPS

PICK UP SHIFTS

“If you are near a FedEx ground facility, you can pick up shifts while being an occasional employee. Work is tough, but you can easily make 100 bucks for 5 hours. Yes, I get sore, but getting $180 after taxes for 10 hours isn’t horrible.”
BRAND AMBASSADOR

“I mail in Sweepstakes envelopes for Chumba Casino as a side hustle. Takes a while to get going, but at $5 an envelope for sweep coins, it’s a decent side hustle.”
BABYSITTING

FLIPPING BIKES
![motorcycle](https://mrsdaakustudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/motorcycle.jpg)
“I flip bikes and then find higher margin items at thrift stores to flip. Additionally, if I see things for free that have resale value, I’ll do that, too.
I make about $200 a week right now flipping bikes. It’s all side cash. I have a great full-time job so I don’t need the money, but it all helps.”
GRAPHIC DESIGN
“I’ve been doing graphic design for years, and it truly has been a blessing. So many people need help with computers, especially when it comes to bringing their ideas to life visually!”
INSTAWORK
