Arise - Work From Home and Lose Money!

Published on 2013-01-08 09:00:00

A Full Time Income from Home?

Published on 2013-01-05 19:44:00

That didn't last long. My job working outside of the home came to a quick halt 2 days before Christmas (long story which I won't get into here). I am finding myself job hunting again both outside of the home and inside the home. I am now researching

Surveys Part 1

So I posted awhile ago that I was going to attempt some survey sites and see if they were actually worth the time and effort put into them. To be honest, I really haven't dedicated much time to doing surveys between my job, family, and blogging, plus

Journey to a New Job

Published on 2012-11-12 10:36:00

Working from home has always been the main focus of this blog. Up until a few months ago, I had been working from home since the latter part of 2005. I did a variety of online jobs and tried just about everything to bring a little bit of extra money

Trying Some Surveys

Published on 2012-10-16 08:39:00

A few weeks ago, I was finally able to land a job outside of the home. I know, working from home sounds glamorous but it just wasn't so much glamorous for me any more. I wasn't making as much money as I needed to be and frankly, I was tired of being at home every.single.day. I wanted to get out and put the knowledge I learned in college to good use while also getting out and conversing with other adults (oh, and the paychecks!). As of right now, I am not working from home any longer however, I [..]

Glade Expressions Review

Being a Bzzagent, I have been lucky enough to receive quite a few items to review and share with others. My most recent items were from Glade. I was provided with coupons for free Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser and Glad Expressions Fragrance Mist. I have 3 children and a lot of pets, and my house does not always smell like roses. I like to bring things into the house that can help give it a fresh and pleasant odor. I chose the Lavender and Juniper breeze fragrance for the oil diffuser. I decid [..]

Should I Stay or Should I Go?

Published on 2012-07-21 11:44:00

I've been without internet for awhile here. Was hoping that the problem would be remedied quickly but it looks like it won't be back on until I land a job outside of the home. Obviously, if we have no internet, I can't earn a dime online. I can get online from my phone but can't “work” that way. I tried to post on here about 10 different times using the Blogger App but every time I did, I would get an 'unexpected error' and would have to force the app closed, wasting everything that I had ty [..]

Be Wise When Looking for Freelance Work

Published on 2012-06-05 15:47:00

I have stressed many time before that when you are looking for freelance work, you need to set a reasonable price for yourself. Everyone's time is valuable. When you apply via websites such as oDesk or elance, many of the clients are only looking for the cheapest price and unfortunately there are many, many freelancers out there who will gladly work for pennies. I've made it a point to tell some clients that the cheapest is not always the best.

Varolo: Get Paid to Watch Commercials

Published on 2012-04-16 19:38:00

Varolo is similar to Jingit. You log in to watch commercials, then you rate the commercial and go on to the next. You get points for each commercial that you watch and the points can be redeemed for cash once you have a minimum of $20 in your account. You can earn more money by getting people to sign up under you. These people are considered to be your "village" and when they earn money, you also earn. I usually don't like these pyramid schemes but I think once you grow your village, you could p [..]

I wrote a post a few months back about Jingit. You can get paid money to watch commercials on your computer. It was legit and I made money from it.. and spent that money. Soon after I posted about Jingit, they were advertising that the website would be "down" for about a week or so while they re-do everything in an attempt to get more advertisers. Well.. that's been months ago. I check in on it once in awhile to see if it is up yet, but still nothing. Although, at first, when I logged in, it jus [..]

Their clothes typically have some sort of stain on it whether it be juice, food, mud, or grass, it's very rare that their clothes don't have something on them when I put them in the wash.

For some reason, they stopped doing payments via paypal, so you have to use either moneybrokers or alertpay.
