There are some jobs available working for, I think, GE Capital, which involves call center work, and collections that they will allow you to do from home....
There are a lot of those "home party" businesses, like the old Tupperware...where you organize get-togethers at a person's home so they can sponsor a party and you try to promote your products like that....Lots of CANDLES, Cheap Cookware, and low quality home products as well as makeup are sold this way.
You can also sell lingerie this way.
I know someone who can sew very well. She makes purses, and has parties where you can come pick out the fabric, the lining, and the fringe, and she will make it for you. The gals at the party got really excited about it, and spent about 50 to 75 bucks a piece, and some bought up to 3 purses (200 bucks total?) at a time.
You have to be outgoing, because the only way you will get someone to do a party is to talk to them first. I myself would never do something like that, but some people do well.
If you know what you do well, and figure out how to market what you do from home, well, then, there you go.
Good luck. I would love to do the same thing. I have a child, and hate fighting traffic to get to work.

There are next to no jobs of Homeworking and the likes. There are several reasons for this.
Think about it as if you were a company. Would you send your expensive stock to an address that you had no confirmation of existing unless you have time to go there, and you still have no confirmation that they live there or will be there indefinetly, for the prospect that they might perform your task, on time and not just bin it all and split, or bin it all and get more, or take too long, or any other ideas.
Take envelope stuffing:
Leaflets to print cost maybe hundreds or Thousands of pounds, envelopes cost more money, labels more money. All this money that a company would be risking sending to someones house.
Then there is the issue that the private details of the clients of the company is going off a company premises, which as well as being risky is in potential violation of the Data protection act UK 1998 (Private data must be carefully protected by the company, if it is off premises, they loose some of the control of it), still guarantees that the Job will be done.
Lets do Data Entry:
Your a reputable company with a global customer base. Would you send your valuable customer Information to a random house for a stranger to look after. and Proccess it in some way.
Doing that would contravene the Data Protection act 1998 (The data is outwith their control, so could be seen as breaching the Act) and you would have to possibly pay to insure house as a place of Business.
Telesales:
Some Random company offers you a job where you phone a database of numbers trying to offer the products of that company to the General public. Trouble is, when you go to claim your phone expenses, the company has Ceased to be.
These all seem legite on the face, or like good Business ideas, but there are flaws or other reasons that it can’t be possible.
Why not just go and get a job like most normal people, or change your living habits to live within your salary. Or you could start a Business, But thats a different subject.

I am a stay at home mom, and I do several websites that earn me spending money. Nothing fantastic, but $5 here and there is $5 more than I would have had, right?
Pinecone Research pays $5 per survey completed, but only offer you 2-3 survey's per month. You have to find a banner to be able to join, it's not open enrollement, nor is it referral based.
http://www.netwinner.com/?signupcode=gilly2878 Netwinner is a game site, free to join, free to play, and you win points that go towards buying yourself gift cards for places like Best Buy, Game Stop, Wal-Mart, Target, and more. You can also win cash prizes, which are mailed out, I believe, not pay pal'ed. You earn 1000 points instantly for signing up with a referral code (the link already has one in it). No spam email at all, either.
http://www.treasuretrooper.com/161978 Treasure Trooper pays you to sign up at different sites, and what not. I highly recommend using a new email account for just that, because it's spam city.
Judy's Book allows you to review products, businesses and websites, and after you get to a certain level, you earn free gift cards. judysbook.com

This is for people that are serious and who don’t want to be misled as we have tried many things and have found a company that has been around for 21 Years and pays you to advertise for them. My wife and I just started and are doing well. It is not an MLM company and no selling, no deliveries or stocking product. My wife’s aunt has been working with this Company (Melaleuca) for a little over 3 years and home schools 3 kids and makes $9,000 a month. It is a 500 Inc company and the CEO is on the U.S. Chamber of commerce board. I can arrange a web cast with my wife’s aunt for you and you can decide by yourself and WE WILL help you be successful. It is an honest Win Win.
If you want to see a web cast (presentation) from your home let me know and I will arrange it as that truly is the way to see all about Melaleuca. Have you heard of it. We have just gotten started with my wife's aunts help as it is a team effort and it is fun. Just a quick F.Y.I. 8 out of 10 people that see the web cast join the company and 95% of the people that join re-order product each and every month. Let me know when you are ready and we will set up the web cast.

Thanks,
Rich & Teresa

I worked with them for awhile... Easy stuff- Pretty good pay. They pay for training too. They contract with Gap- Old Navy- 1800Flowers, GE Electrical. It's like a call center that they patch to your phone. You log on to their system and help people resolve credit card issues, order flowers, whatever group your assigned to. It paid like 9 bucks an hour.

I work from home, without selling, stocking or delivering. It's only $29 to get started, because all we do is switch stores.
