    If so, what do you do?

    I fill out surveys, click on ads, review music on Slice the Pie, and complete micro tasks on various websites.

    I average about 50 extra dollars a month. It's not a lot, but every little bit helps. I keep the extra money separate from the money I use to pay bills and important things.

    I save up the extra money to buy presents around holidays or use it to buy the things I want, but don't really need. This way, I'm not spending the money that I would usually use to pay bills.

    Keeping the money separate, I'm able to manage my money better and I never have to worry about not having enough to pay the bills because I don't cut into the bigger earnings to buy silly things or things that aren't necessary.

    What websites do you use to earn extra cash?

    I do surveys that's it. I have tried to find typing jobs just cause I like typing and i'm pretty fast I did found one but it was one of those things where you had to wait for them to give you something and it just took forever. So for now it's just surveys

    I make a living from working from home but if I need extra spending money, I will write articles which averages to about $300 - $400 per month with sites such as textbroker, iwriter, and Writeraccess. For Christmas, I will be working extra just to give my four nieces a little something extra.

    I make extra money by doing Humanatic, Cha Cha and another writing company. My main source of income comes from re-writing articles for a private client I found on Elance. That is great place to find additional work. I make about 10 dollars a week with my "extra" gigs and make about 200 a week with my writing job.

    I work the content mills as much as I can. I like writing and they pay well. I use the money to pay bills and squirrel away as much as I can for Christmas.

    I take survey and do little other jobs for extra money. I have been looking for other ther to do also too. But that is a good idea keeping the money separate.

    I am working as a freelancer to earn those extra dollars I need for each day spending. Specially I write for writersDomain.com, bubblews.com, copywriters.come and Textbroker. For me it is not like I am working as a part-time worker but as a full time worker since I tool writing as a career. Writing usually gives me more than 600 dollars each money.

    I generally freelance as a web developer/designer and graphic designer. It brings in good money when I get jobs. I would love to solely make a living online but it is quite difficult! Hopefully in the near future I would be able to.

    I make it a point to do whatever I can whenever I can to make a buck or two online. Minus things that are scams, illegal, or pornography related I am all over the leftovers. I happen to spend a lot of time online regardless so it helps to add some cash where you can.

    I'm a blogger, so I offer advertisement options on my website (all sorts): banners, blog posts, sponsored blog posts, etc. I also review music. The hardest part is finding what works for you and what's worth your time.

    Surveys and ads aren't paying much nowadays, so I suggest you sign up with a content mill that you can write for. If you're in the US you can also try mTurk or TextBroker, the former offers tasks called HITs that you can complete for cash, and the latter pays you per word written.

    I have been taking surveys and using Bing rewards but you are right, not a lot of pay. I have been looking for some other alternatives. I do enjoy Slice the Pie for fun and it makes a few bucks!

    I love Slice the Pie, it is a lot of fun and you do make some extra cash. I think the only way to make extra cash online is to have a few things that you enjoy and do them all. This is what I do and we do pretty good with the extra money coming in. It always help to have an extra source of income! Most of it doesn't feel like work either which is a plus!

    I try to do as much as I can but for right now the only sites I have are survey sites. So for right now I do survey sites one posting site and that's it. I am looking to do more things online to earn but it is so hard to find good sites that pay and are legit. I have tried all kinds of ways to look for sites but have not had any luck.
