I sell Avon but am thinking of other jobs I can do from my home. Any ideas?? I'm also going to work part time at Walmart - yay for discounts - LOL.

Mrs. Geoff has been working from home as a medical transcriptionist for many years. It's all done over the internet ... download files, type, upload files. It's worked out pretty well for us.

She previously had a background as a medical secretary/admin, so the transition was easy.

The company supplies the hardware and software specific to the job.

Here's a place to staart, for those interested:

i just started back up with tupperware (waiting on my kit to come in the mail) i think the kits are $69.99 and $99.99. i got the higher priced one.
you don't have to do parties if you don't want and it pretty much sells itself. tupperware is so well known. and as a sales rep you do get discounts for samples and on your own orders. since i don't do parties, my orders count as i am the hostess so you get discounts or free stuff if the party is over a certain amount. and also your percentage of money. i usually pass a lot of the free stuff back to my customers to make it fun for them too.
for me it's an easy way to get my own tupperware to use and also to share how great tupperware really is (i think that is the success of selling products like tupperware or avon--you have to really like and use what you are selling).

there is a girl that just started at work and she really loves to bake. she is making up a menu to sell some stuff at work. i taste tested her blueberry cheesecake yesterday. she has already set up and sold at our local flea market (i guess her husband got drug, i mean helped her and it was a pretty funny story) i didn't ask how much she made, but said she's thinking about doing it again. she also is going to make pumpkin rolls at Christmas. i told her i would probably buy one of those. the ones with the creamy filling-yum! if you have a place you could sell at and like to bake that might help you around the holidays. i know at previous places that ive worked there have been ladies that sell the pumpkin rolls every Christmas and people go nuts over them.

Checkout this site.

Telecommuting Jobs - They have listings of a lot of different legitimate work from home jobs. I personally used it and found it to be very good work.

I am lucky, when I found out that I was pregnant, I asked my current employer if I could work from home (eBay Inc.) and it wasn't a problem at all. So...I do the same job I did in the office, just from home now.

How do you know the ones that are on the up and up. ( real )
I need to get doing something to help pay down debt until the restaurant
goes through. (that will also help our credit.)

I know Tupperware has been mentioned (which I sell) but I also sell Taste of Gourmet which I love. I do TW because I wanted to get a discount on stuff I wanted but I do the TOG stuff because I love to cook (and eat) and they have great products. The startup cost is not too bad and there are no quotas to meet so you can have as many or as few parties as you want. I have 2 little ones so I like the fact that I can do my "tastings" during the week at night when my husband gets home and my weekends are free for us to spend as a family (unless I choose to do my tastings on weekends). I love to cook and I get to share my love of cooking and food at these parties and not bore my picky family with it.

Please PM me if you want to learn more about the company as I cannot post my direct web address. I know how tough it is to find legitimate work at home opportunities that is why I chose to go the home demo route, you really can make money if you are willing to invest a little time to make it work for you.

I work for a company called west. The website is westathome.com I get paid twice a month. You get min wage but there are also per minute pay so you can easily make $10 an hour. I average about $1000 a month and it's all from my home on my time.

Are you crafty? I sew and sell what I make on Ebay. I make childrens clothing and cloth diaper accessories, wipes, liners, etc. When I really worked at it, I would make 800+ per month. Lately I've been slacking, so I'm not making near that much.
