Ok, I really NEED to earn $155 in 7 days! It CAN NOT go over 7 days!! Please help! My family is short on money so extra chores are out of the question. We are having a yard sale this coming weekend and I have a TON of stuff in it, plus i'm planning on selling refreshments. I doubt I will make that much, so I need some extra Ideas.

Thanks

You don't NEED $155 in 7 days. You WANT $155 in 7 days. If doing chores for your family is out of the question, try doing chores for your neighbors.

Take some of the more interesting and expensive items for your yard sale, and check to see if similar items are currently offered on Ebay. See how much these items usually sell for, and ask your parents to consider selling it on Ebay instead - this will make a LOT more money than selling it to people off the street.
Also, try to turn your yard sale into a fundraiser. If you're raising money for a particular need, such as buying a dog, paying off someone's medical bills, or whatever, then people will be more willing to pay higher amounts for stuff if they feel they are contributing to a good cause. Post a sign asking people "Help us reach our goal!" and show how much you need to earn, and how much you've earned throughout the day.

Mow lawns around the neighbourhood, baby sit kids and probably sell off some stuff in eBay, to friends or craigslist.org (free advertising). If you charge $20-25 for mowing a lawn, all you have to do is mow lawns from 5 different houses per day, and you get around $700 in a week.
