How to make quick and easy money from the comfort of your own home
TURN the unwanted items that clutter up your house into quick and easy money.
There are plenty of ways to make a fast profit from the comfort of your own home.
And cashing in couldn’t be simpler with these tips.
RENT IT OUT: If you have a driveway, look into renting it out via yourparkingspace.co.uk. And if you’ve got kitchen or gardening tools sitting around, lease them via fatllama.com.
SELL AWAY: Declutter a drawer and find something you no longer need. It only takes a moment to pop it on Facebook Marketplace or an app such as Vinted, which has no fees.
Even if you only make a few pounds, it’s a few quid you didn’t have before.
RAID THE CUPBOARDS: Go through your kitchen to check for hidden goodies that could bulk out dinners.
Shave a bit off your supermarket spend by using the Olio app. Locals list their surplus goods and you can ask to have them.
It’s free and there are often loaves, extra pastries from shops and household items up for grabs.
GET REWARDED: If there is something you simply must buy today, first check a cashback site to see if you can earn while you spend.
Many people do not realise you can pocket small amounts on food deliveries and household basics.
Double up on the boost by using a bank card with a rewards partner or registering your bank card on Airtime Rewards.
ENTER A COMPETITION: Have a bash at winning a great prize.
Moneysavingexpert.com has a forum which lists the free competitions you can enter.
You’ve got to be in it to win it!
SWITCH TO SAVE: One of the smartest ways to make a little extra cash is to switch your bank account. NatWest has a new offer where you can earn £200 for making the move.
As long as you deposit £1,250 and log in to online banking, you will receive the reward in 30 days. Full T&Cs at natwest.com.
