The best ones are the ones your parents would love to have done, but never get around to doing because they're busy keeping up with the day to day stuff like vacuuming and dishes and stuff.
Some examples of things I did to get big bucks out of my parents (they're not fun, but they're willing to shell out more for these):
Wash windows
wax car
vacuum car
clean out gutters
clean out refrigerator/freezer
rake leaves
clean out/wipe down cupboards
wash and iron curtains
clean stove and oven
wash blinds
ironing
Good luck and happy cleaning!

You need to talk this over with your parents of course. It all depends on your age and what they allow you to do. Having said that, why dont you try:
baby sitting
car washing
lawn mowing
selling baked goods to friends & neighbors. (specially if you are a good baker. you could put them in nice tins and use the "good gift" angle)
lemonaid(if its hot outside) / hot chocolate/cookie stand (if its cold outside. run an extention chord to the sidewalk and you can plug in a micowave or hot plate. bake your own cookies and save money that way too. its a good opportunity to sell the cookies or any other baked goods to your neighbors)

remember to not replace the C.H in chores with W.H. and just do the old fashioned thing and wash dishes if u are under age or get a job if u are over 16.

A lot depends on how old and how capable you are. Some might depend on where you live. There might be outdoor things like shoveling snow, raking leaves, or mowing lawns depending on the weather and part of the country.

You don't say how old you are or what you are capable of doing ... but how about washing cars for neighbors. Everyone loves a clean car, so long as they don't have to do it themselves!
