I need to make 1800 in 3 weeks.........

[swiperfox]

Any ideas??!!

Failing that, anyone know a loan shark???

Please don't go to a loan shark, it's not worth it. You could do some selling on Ebay - won't make you rich but it's a start.

sell all your unwanted things on ebay
get a temp job
sell your body!!

sell old baby bits on mn

Would you get £1800 for your body?? Mine's certainly not worth that much after 2 children.

Mine's worth about £1.80 if I sell it by the pound...

pmsl - definately not!!!!!

having my 2 have wrecked any chance of that!! Not to mention number 3 on the way!!

Are there any ways you could get some of it by not spending it (IYSWIM) It's a lot to get in a short time.

Credit Union? (I just used Leeds as an example)

watch money spinners!!!

can you rent out a room in your house?

sell car and buy a cheaper one

Car Boot Sale?

problem is dp works in a stupid comission based job and has had no wages for the last few weeks and not really expecting any. I get 80.00 a week which we live on so we have none to save. When we moved into this house it was on a 3 month contract where we had to give 3 months rent upfront and then do that again for the next 3 months. If we can raise this and pay the 3 months rent dp can get out of this stupid job into a proper one and have time to work his month in hand before the rent is due again....

Anyone need new windows???!!!

Discover an old antique in the attic?

oh blimey

Negotiate with the landlord to move to monthly rent?

If you've nothing to sell, I think it's going to be difficult to do without borrowing it and then you'll have the added problem of paying it back. Viscious circle.

Fimbo, do you have to live in Leeds to join this?

Suzy-I would assume so, I just googled Credit Unions and that was the first one to come up. I haven't used one myself but think lots of areas have them. HTH

will have to look into that thanks Fimbo.

Our other alternative is to borrow from dp's work which means he's then tied to that bloody job again.

Arrgghh!!!

Aha, just googled the association of british credit unions, and you can search for one in your area, very useful. Thanks.

Definitely try the credit union option; they're there for people in your situation and specifically to avoid loan sharks!

Hmmm. £1800. I had a Compaq laptop and two graphing calculators I sold on Ebay, but even that only netted us about £300.

yeah its a lot to raise eh expat? i was working out even the tv, puter and stuff wouldn't do it!!

sleep with the landlord?!!!

sorry not helpful!!!

Did anyone see money spinners?!
