Ways Teens can Earn Money

If you're like most teens nowadays, you are in dire need of money. Cell phones, Ipods, college books, clothes, shoes, college applications, clothes, shoes, etc. all are a strain to your parents' wallets and most likely, they only see the real need out of that list as being college and maybe the basic phone service. Well, lucky for you (us) there are a variety of ways we can earn money.
1. Get a job!!!!! Yes it may be the most obvious, but for seem it can be quite difficult. A lot of stores are hiring, but they prefer older applicants most of the time or people with experience. The best advice is to fill out as many applications as possible and talk to the manager and convince them that although you may not have extensive experience, you can do as good a job as anyone else.
2. Cut and save Do you really need that unlimited text or that new Ipod? Probably not. If you look at your life and what you're using, you can figure out what you really need and what is simply not a neccesity.
3. Walk your neighbor's dogs or offer to watch them (doggysit)
4.. Keep your used ink cartridges and take them to a recylcing place to get reimburesed for them.
5. Have old clothes you don't wear or new clothes you never wore? Sell them on Ebay!
6. Start your own car washing business
7. If you have a talent, exploit it and make people pay you to do it for them, whatever it may be.
8. Sell your old videos, DVDs, or video games
9. Offer to plan birthday parties for your neighbors or friends
10. And lastly, be really, really, really, nice to your mom and dad!
