Rewards of Working From Home

Since I work at home I spend very little time going out and dealing with  the crowds  in stores this time of year. One of my favorite deal sites is www.fishingfordeals.com they have a little bit of everything on the site. You will find great deals each day, recipes, trip advice, and even some craft ideas. I visit this site often, but find myself there several times a day during the holidays. I believe on my last count I should be getting about 15 packages or so!

It is also a great break from my work day!

Check them out - it is a great place to meet some nice people and save some money this holiday season!

Now that is close to the end of the year work at home people should have a good idea of how much they have made and prepare for tax time. I keep a monthly record of what I need to claim and all deductions. I have already given this info to my CPA who has done some quick figuring and told me to slow down a bit so I will not have to pay taxes.

This is a great time for me to take extra time off and luckily my jobs allow me to choose my own hours so I can do so. I actually slowed down in November based on the figures given to me. I pretty much have a clear amount I want to make each year and now I can spend the rest of the year preparing for the holidays!

As I have mentioned ever since I signed up for a bunch of survey sites - I have gotten an abundance of products to test! The largest amount I ever received was $200 for testing laundry detergent for two weeks!

It seems I am getting more and more products and a decent amount to use! Currently I am testing three sport bras, Coffee (received two pounds) and a feminine product.  I am getting some compensation, but the products are all worth a good amount of money and they are all items I use!

Do not be scared away by the small paying survey sites you may be rewarded with some great products to test,

I have never been on an online juror but one of my friends has. She said the cases are interesting, and it kind of fun!

I have posted about these before,  was told about a couple more sites for everyone to check out. These were both mentioned in Woman’s Day recently..

Trial Practices - http://www.trialpractice.com/
and Online Juror http://www.onlineverdict.com/

It was mentioned to me that when you do these expect to a lot reading! Good luck.

They are looking for people to work overnight 7 pm to 7 am. The job will start in December. Moderators will learn the site guidelines and review submitted information from others. The length of each shift has yet to be determined, and pay will be hourly based on previous experience.

May work out for someone looking for another job and would like to work late hours.

This website is an interesting concept. You upload your resume after you join and prospective employers can hire you. You can also apply for jobs yourself with all different pay scales. I did not sign up so I do not know exactly how it works, but it may be worth looking into for some extra cash.

It looks like there is a lot of administrative work, but I cannot see everything without logging in. Here is the link https://www.livework.com/

I came across this one day, but have not signed up yet. From what I have researched it looks similar to Mturk. You do some jobs and are paid. It also sounds like they pay the next day for any task you do. The payments come via Paypal. Another thing is I believe you have to be part of Facebook, as this CloudCrowd is part of Facebook.

I was able to see some tasks and the range from .03 to 1.42. There are items such as rewriting paragraphs, review websites, find websites, and grade written texts.

Here is the link for anyone that would like to pursuit this. http://www.cloudcrowd.com/

All of you searching for a work at home job this is a great time to grab a seasonal job and perhaps it will become permanent. If anything it will add work at home experience to your resume which work at home employers look for.

I do a seasonal scoring job with Pearson. I have mentioned it before, I do it in the spring and fall as students are leaving and starting school. It was my first work at home job and I have not given it up even though I have two permanent jobs. WHY? The pay is great, and it is good to have something on the back burner if I decide to shorten my hours and only want to work a few weeks out of the year. Sure, the weeks I have to do all three jobs it is grueling and tiring, but it is worth it.

There are all also companies that hire for the holidays to take calls - these jobs turn into permanent positions for many. I know many people do not like to be on the phone, but it is an excellent way to gain some work at home experience. You can test it out during the holidays and decide if it is for you.

Keep searching this is a great time of year to grab at work at home position.
