By things as cheap as possible them sell them for a profit on ebay. if you do your research right and haggle u can get some good deals and make quite a good profit on ebay. it's worked for me before. u just have to keep a sharp eye out and recognise what will sell and what wont.

For example, The new GTA game was selling in shops for £40. I got my copy early and i bought a few others as well cos i knew they would sell out quickly. the extra games i put on ebay and they went for around £50 - £55 each cos ppl simply wanted a copy and would pay a lot more than retail price for them.

Car washing. £5 per car (or whatever you feel you can charge in your area). If you do a good job they will have you back next week. The trick is to vet your customers. It is pointless going to a house where the grass is two foot tall. They won't care what the car looks like. Go to houses
that look in good nick, as they care about there things. Their car will be less dirty as well, so easier to clean. Depending on the area and what the people are like you could try this sales tag line. "If you are not happy you don't have to pay me" This means they have nothing to lose in giving you a go. I believe most people in the world are decent, so if you do a top job you will get paid.

Wheels. Pay attention to the wheels. They tend to be the most work so the bit that they will expect to get neglected.

If you do 10 (you can do a lot more if you work hard) cars over a weekend that is £50 in your pocket. Just pay attention to detail and they will have you back. With your pimping, e-baying and drug selling you will have your money in no time.
