These are great ways for stay at home moms to make some extra money while the kids nap. These are also good ways to bring in some extra income whether you are a student, parent, or just looking for supplemental income.
I just started scanning my checks so I can show you the money I am making. See images below of my deposited checks.
Cash Back on Online Purchases
Get a % back in cash/check when you make online purchases. If you are going to be doing some shopping anyway, do it online and get some cash back. There are tons for stores like Ebay, Old
Navy, Target, Best Buy.... and many other stores.
On Big Crumbs, Quick Rewards, Cash Crate, and Ebates, if you go
through their site to get to many
online stores you get some cash back on your purchases. They either send you a check or just put money in your paypal account. It is that easy! If you plan on doing shopping anyway,
this is a good deal. There are lots of stores
(Overstock, Best Buy, Gap, Apple Store, HP,
buy.com, ...) They have a huge list.
It's totally free. It looks like they make
money from these sites advertising on their site.
They provide links to the stores and when you buy
stuff from the links you get a certain percentage
back. I think you can still use your own coupons when
you go to check out at the online store from whatever
site you go to.
You can also get cash when your friends buy stuff as
well. On Big Crumbs, Cash Crate, and Quick Rewards, you can keep
earning a % when your friends buy stuff, but on Ebates
you only get a flat $5 when someone you refer buys
something for the first time. But, Ebates gives you
higher percentages back and you get $5 for yourself
when you sign up.
On Quick Rewards and Cash Crate you can get some cash other ways as
well. You earn free cash by visiting websites,
shopping, daily signups, daily trivia, signups,
trials, surveys and much more.
On all of these you also make money when you friends sign up.

Surveys and Focus Groups
You can also answer surveys and join focus groups. Here are the ones which I have had success. Focus Forward is the best paying. I made $200 for a couple of hours once, and then we also got $75 for participating in a message board online for a few days.

MyLot
Mylot - It is like Myspace, but you get paid! You have friends, discussions, and your own profile. You get paid to write your own discussions or answer/respond to others. You also get paid just for posting your own pictures. Although it may seem like not very much at first, those pennies really do add up. This is a really easy way to get some extra money. It's also a fun place to go to make friends and help others. Here's the link
Cash Crate
You can get paid to review and try products, services, and websites. You get paid when your account reaches $20. Some offers only reward you with points, but you can trade the points for gift cards and various other items. Sign up here
Different ways to make money on the site.
1. Complete offers. These vary from answering surveys to registering for free newsletters. Make sure you set the search to show “100% free” offers. You don’t want to get stuck in some sort of membership.
2. Go shopping. You get a % back when you shop online at various stores.
3. Refer friends. You get paid 20% of what your direct referrals make and 10% of what their referrals make.
4. Contests. Cash Crate rewards the top 10 ten users earning the most money through offers and daily surveys, as well as the users who refer the most people.
Sell Your Photos, Video, Artwork
Like to take pictures? Do you have some nice photographs? You could possibly make some money off of them.
There are many sites where you can upload your photos and start making money.
Here are a few: (I got this list from Site Point by J. Catone )
Get Paid to Write Articles
Associated Content
There are a few sites where you can get paid to contribute many different types of content (articles, reviews, video, audio, images, ...).
Write reviews on Epinions. I have made $205.14 from
writing reviews every so often. I'm going to try and
start writing more. It's real easy to write a review,
especially now that we have so many baby produts to
write on. You get a few cents every time someone
reads your review.
Associated Content is a large community with articles and other kinds of texts as well as audio, video, and images. They pay people to contribute any type of content (video, text, audio and images) on any topic.You get an initial upfront payment ranging from $1-$20 and then and additional $1.50 for every thousand page views. The payments are sent though Paypal.
Helium is similar to AC. Members publish articles on any of the topics. The writing community then will judge each one of the articles to determine the best. You get paid based on the quality (how others rate you), traffic, and advertiser interest. The cool thing about Helium is your name is not shown with your article. This insures unbiased reviews. You can still track your articles, keep track of ones you have written, and share those with others.
Just Answer
Just Answer - If you have a degree, are an expert in a particular field, or just are good at researching topics you can make some money answering people's questions. I recently started doing this. You have to first answer a few questions in a particular topic to be an expert in that category. There seem to be a lot of different types of questions being asked.
Do Small Jobs with Amazon
Though Amazon, you can get paid for odd jobs. They vary from rating restaurants to doing web searches. They don’t pay much, but it could add up over time. Click here for Amazon Mechanical Turk

Do you have a blog? Do you want to make some extra money? There are many companies that will pay bloggers to write about the product or service the company sells. You can make anywhere from $2-$100 per post. All you have to do is spend a little bit of time writing about something you may already use or know.
Most of the sites require your blog to have at least 30 posts before you can sign up.
Here are a few sites where you can sign up to get paid for blogging.

Be a ChaCha Guide or Expiditor
ChaCha is a mobile research service. People text or call in and get the answer text to their cell phone. Anyway, they need people to answer these texts. Usually it’s not too hard to find the answers using a Google search. You’ll get questions anywhere from weather forecasts to sports stats. They pay you 20 cents for each question you answer. You can average about $5 -$10/hr. It looks like right now they are not accepting new guides, but keep trying and please put me down as your referral. Become a Guide
