Here are our top 3 tips for earning more cash:
Sell your old stuff
Selling some of your old stuff on Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree or other platforms is a great way to get some extra cash and declutter at the same time.
You might be surprised at what you can sell!
Find work online
Sites such as Airtasker and Fiverr are a great way to get odd jobs and develop your skills.
Surveys are one way to earn money, but can be pretty time consuming.
Get gigs from your network
