What do you do to earn pocket money?

July 3, 2008 on 11:20 am | In Culture, Finance |

You know what pocket money is…it is supposed to be money that you put in your pocket for yourself  and not pay bills with it nor bank it either.

But how many people these days manage to do that? I had a friend who was always trying to find new ways of making herself some extra money. One time she decided to venture out and make pet beds - those baskets with the cushions for pampered pets. She run up a few and sold them quickly at the local weekend markets.

It was a great idea until one of those huge pet supermarkets opened nearby and sold the same items…at half the price she was charging for her handmade efforts. Despite that fact that they put her out of business at the markets she ended up selling them on consignment at the shop. So it worked out in the end.
