Sounds to me like a long-term problem, which means you would eventually run out of stuff to sell and friendly relatives would turn sour on you. Best not to push your luck too far with those alternatives.
One way to solve this long-term would be to get a second job. Another would be to stop living above your means. I believe Chris Rock said it best when he said, 'Don't buy sh!t you can't afford.' So maybe you should re-think your car. Do you REALLY need it? Could you make do with a bus pass or a cheaper car?
There are lots of ways to save money and most of them involve cutting out the waste. Do you really need that new pair of shoes or will the other three do the trick? Do you really need to eat out or are you just being lazy? You get the picture...

Borrow from the family .. Sell stuff on eBay .. Both of those answers from the other people were good.
I suggest you get a seperate savings account and put the last bit of money in there after each paycheck so you can have some emergency money for situations like that!

Yard Sale!!!! If you feel you dont have ample stuff to promote, wager once more! Ask your mum and dad, their peers, household, associates, the individuals you sit down for..... ask for apparel, baggage, footwear, loved ones units ie espresso pots, dishes, glasses and so forth., ancient television's, furnishings, rugs, blankets, sheets, art work, toys, child units and so forth. Also, bake cookies AND promote lemonade, ice tea or water bottles. My 12 12 months ancient son and a couple of of his peers had a backyard sale, one million day best, on a Saturday, and so they made $535 coins! What a first-class day that they had! Fast, convenient and amusing. Be certain your whole units are priced to promote, are blank and are located on blank tables for show. This makes it convenient for all people to peer what you may have. Also, be certain to begin with $25 singles and $10 in quarters. Borrow this cash out of your mum and dad with the promise to provide it again as quickly as you are making your first $25! Good success! I recognize for a FACT this may increasingly paintings, we're having an extra at the finish of September!

Do you have a car? If so, see if any pizza restaurants are hiring in your area. Chances are, you may be hired on the spot and can start immediately. If so, you get what you make in tips in cash everyday - you won't have to wait for a paycheck before making money.
If you don't have a car, try to get a job waiting tables.
Other things you can do: sell items on Craigslist or Ebay. You can also sell books on Amazon. Sell plasma (do a google search to find a place in your area that buys plasma).
