Although my husbands business is busy (he is the main earner) i dont really contribute to household and associated costs. I train horses to sell them on (but obviously takes a few months to sell each one and reap the benefit) and also do the odd bit of freelance work but this is restricted by the fact i have a 1yr old son who i have to take care of in the week. I have been wondering for a while if there are any sort of businesses that can earn moderate income (£100 per week upwards) with minimum outlay to set it up. Something web based would be ideal??? Any ideas. Thanks.

As part of my business, I set up an Ebay shop. I started off small, selling a few accessories but in 6 months, it's huge. That part of the business currently earns over £2,000 per week.
Maybe you could try buying bits from your local car boot and flogging them on Ebay. Would be a start.

A business where you sell your own knowledge. For example, I ran an IT consultancy from home, repairing PCs and tutoring on all IT matters. I advertised in the local paper (£15 per week) and charged £25 per hour. I worked on a "no fix, no fee" basis, and was honest and fair in my dealings. I soon had too much work and dropped the advertising. Once you build up a good reputation the rest is history. Work on the freelance aspect of what you do best!
I wish you success in whatever you choose.

I've tried mystery shopping. If you key this in for a search you come up with some companies but don't pay any money to subcribe to anything its a con. The companies who really pay shoppers dont need to obtain money upfront. There is also a website i think its called working from home or homework something like that and one called born to loaf these may help.

I totally agree with the idea of having an eBay shop. If you go on eBay and then look at the various categories, you'll see sales figures next to each sellers name... that will give you an idea of what sells in large quantities. I just bought a DVD and next to that guys name was over 8000 sales!!!!
