Me neither

And as said, cash in hand food delivery! I used to do it on a thurs/fri/sat night when I was at sixth form, fun job and pays well too tbh for something so easy. If you know your way around the local area you will always get work

I'm honestly considering this, until I get a decent job! Although could do with a economical car for this.

Done a bit of modelling for random companies for their catalogues, web catalogues and stuff nothing exciting but a very helpful £100 here and there.

Done a few of those surveys too, where you go to a room, answer questions on a topic, ussually get sarnies and a coffee and £25 -> £50 for a couple of hours, can be a laugh.

And then same as Will. Fixing/Upgrading etc peoples pc's, ussually just friends, family or workmates (and thier family)...although i dont charge much, still a nice £20 or so every few weeks for a couple of extra pints

Totally agree with everyone on here saying delivering food. I was in the first year of my apprenticeship a few years ago earning around £120 after tax a week, so I got a job dopping off kebabs in my 1 litre corsa and used to take home about £60 on week nights and at least £90 on weekends. I probably only used no more then a £10 on fuel a night. If you have an economical car then you cant beat it... Plus FREE FOOOOOOD!

They dont actually! The businesses need to keep it hot, especially for deliveries 10/20 miles away in rural areas, so they have these like Thermos bag things, they seal in the heat / smell everything, they are really good. Can fit 2 perfectly in the passenger footwell as well

edit - footwell of a Corsa that is, its like it was meant for delivering food Not sure how successful you will be getting cash in hand anymore, cranked up the pressure on it havent they? Plus cant you get pulled for not having 'business miles' insurance or something?

I did it in a Nova GTE, Corsa GSi and my Corsa when it was XE'd for a bit

Was sound as long as you didn't go blasting around all the time
