I became jobless last year, tried working at a pet store, the manager had other plans..
My husband's cousin asked me to babysit a few days a week, for 50 bucks a day.
I also worked the night shift at a local gas station. But when we moved I couldn't keep that job.
I am now a nanny 4 days a week and train horses 6 hours a week for a total weekly check of 260.00
I would HIGHLY suggest you take a look at your local university's web site for NON university jobs, there you can find a plethera of babysitting, tutoring, and other jobs that are advertised to the college students.
Also take a look in the phone book OR have your partner go to the unemployment office to get phone numbers and addresses for DAY LABOR places.
YOU go during the first day and sign up, then after that you show up early, bring a lunch, and wear work clothes..
You can be assigned a LTE or just day or week long job.
One place might be called Manpower.. You get paid daily or weekly from those places.
You can also donate Plasma, those are usually located near the university as well.
You can find out where local food pantries are, and churches usually hold one or two free dinners a week.
Swallow pride and go low. You will be surprised how much you can save and be able to get from charity.
