5 Easy Ways to Make Money as a Stay-at-Home Mom (SAHM) or Dad:

What’s better than earning easy money as a Stay-at-Home Mom? Earning extra spending money to buy something for myself or to treat myself to a mani/pedi is one of my favorite things to do. Giving up my salary to take care of my little one was hard but earning extra money on the side while doing so, makes it fun!

Here are some ways you too can be earning extra money for doing practically nothing….

Get cash back on almost anything you buy… Shopping for maternity clothes? Booking a hotel? Buying flowers for someone? Printing baby pictures on Shutterfly? (and SOO much more). Why not put some of that money back in your pocket by joining Ebates?! This site is my all-time favorite! You literally earn CASH back for buying things you were originally planning on buying already. What’s better than that! Since I’ve joined I have earned $580.00!!!

Swagbucks:

This is a site that allows you to earn points for taking surveys and shopping at certain retailers/restaurants. I set up my account three weeks ago and was just notified I’ve already earned enough points for a $10 Amazon gift card. All I did was take some five-minute surveys and attached my credit cards so any retailers they work with I get points for shopping at. Trust me, you will be excited to see how quickly you accumulate points for doing nothing.
