I have a pocket money scheme already, and my parents expect me to do house-hold chores without being paid.
Got any ideas for me to make a bit more money?

A few people have said print flyer for neihbours, but saying "I will do jobs for money" sounds rude and grabby.
Any ideas for a politer way of askng?

If you're looking for some extra income you may find this interesting. What the hell, no one else is paying you to do stuff on the internet. I've made 500.00 bucks alone with this site just by doing surveys and free trials. This was all in just hours of my own free time...I hope you don't consider this to be 'spam' but I am seriously trying to help you out. Anyway, if you want to check it out for yourself and read up on it here's the site. And yes, it's totally free. After you register, check the 'Messages' tab to learn how to make the easiest money. No age requirement. Thanks for reading.

Mow grass. If you have a mower and your dad will help, you can often get jobs mowing commerically, like a cemetary or something. Some places have low budgets so they won't go with a landscaping firm BUT will pay you more than you would probably make anywhere else.

paper route. You'll be doing chores unpaid for another 5 years buddy, so get used to that one!
baby sit, mow lawns, pet sit, walk dogs, rake leaves, paint fences. It just takes going out and seeing stuff that is wrong. So if your neighbor has a lot fo weeds in his yard, go to his door and say "I see that you have some weeds. I'd be more than happy to pick those for you for a few bucks." I'd pay a kid to pick my weeds. It's 110 outside!
Good luck!

Offer to mow your neighbors lawn or do shoveling of snow in the winter. I did. You could offer to do some painting it's a good first job for someone your age. Usually if you ask a neighbor for work or a relative they could come up with something for you to do.

You could do odd jobs for neighbors. Print up a little flyer and put it on out doors in your area.

Buy products that a lot of people want or need at a lower price, then sell them at a higher price. That is the basic principle of making a profit.
Also, make friends and be nice to people (at least try to).

What about delivery of a local newspaper?
Put together a flyer and deliver it to all your neighbours advertising that you will help with odd jobs around their home/yard.

Babysit, deliver papers, ask you parents if there are any larger shores they would like you to take on for a bit of pocket money.

Come over to my house and do some gardening with my son and I would pay you for that. Or you could try walking dogs for someone or pet sitting while people are on holiday.
