It amounts to probably less than a penny a can but if your using cans anyway instead of just tossing them buy a wall mounted can crusher and start saving em up. In a year or two you'll have a few hundred extra. Alternatively if you work in a service industry job there's a pretty easy way to skim off the top if you're working a cash register. Make like an extra hundred a day

Alright kids gather round. Also I take no responsibility if you get caught which is a possibility your results may vary.
I worked at a Jimmy John's for a few years and if someone is paying with cash, ring up the order so you know the total, but then back out without actually cashing out the order. Give the customer their change and the system doesn't register a sale being made. So that money is yours. Only issue is if the customer wants a receipt in which case you'll actually have to ring it up properly. This only works if you're the manager and are in charge of cashing out the register. I worked at a slow location and was typically the only one working besides a delivery driver

I used to run that same scam when I worked at a gas station. At the end of the night I would take all of the money that I cooked off the register. It makes me laugh whenever I see somebody with pennies and nickels on top of their register because that's how I would nonchalantly keep track of how many dollars to steal at the end of the night to get an even drawer.

For every dollar you steal you put a penny on top of the register. Every time you get to $5, you take five pennies and put them back in your drawer and put a nickel on top. So at the end of the night you can look on top of your register and there will be for example six nickels and three pennies, you know that you can safely take $33 out of the drawer and no one will be the wiser.

And if anyone asks why there's random change on top of your drawer you just say that a customer left it there and you use it to spot people who come up short on tax.

It's a trick that's as old as the hills. Still works like a charm though

He means he would just use the coins as a note to himself on much much money to take out. Our registers had a system that would show how much money should be ij the drawer, so when I would tally it up any above that total was the money I made, so subtract those numbers and bingo bongo that's the ill gotten gains

Exactly. It's much less risky if you're letting people pay you for stuff and not really ringing them up if you just do one big grab at the end of the night. You don't want to be on camera all night with your hand in and out of the cash drawer...
 
Don't be running off doing retarded scheme to pinch pennies from a corp like a tard. Most of these places have cameras on the registers as well as management knows to look out for things like counting, If your defaulting to asking "How make money without sucking dick?" you are probably not smooth or sharp enough to pull off petty crime without the spagehti in your pockets spilling all over the floor. Get some gloves and go pull weeds for some little old lady or lazy boomers. Getting some gloves is probably the cheapest return on investment you can get. I'd reccomend equating your work at $15 an hour and round up past the hour and upcharge a little if the area permits it.

This is a reasonable response but not a very exciting one

And on a good day could be around 200 dollary doos not exactly pennies. Some people just have a hard on for r3specting the laws of society

Simple (legal) ways to get beer money:

Flipping antiques (especially if you're in New England)
  • Furniture is easy albeit expensive to get into. Remember, single chairs and nightstands are worthless.
  • Never sell in person. You will get hosed and will encounter assholes. Everyone online is a wonder to sell to. 1stDibs, Chairish, Ebay are great.
  • Never sell in person. You will get hosed and will encounter assholes. Everyone online is a wonder to sell to. 1stDibs, Chairish, Ebay are great. So is your own website.
  • Always look at the 40% off stuff or the booths going out of business. You'll often see silver stuff for below the cost of silver. If you antique a lot, you might get $200 or so bucks after a year. It's $12 here, $8 here. It'll often be the salt shakers, weighted candlestick holders, etc. Perhaps a $2 profit each time.
  • Clear glass doesn't sell. If you get it from, say, a lot, literally just use it for target practice. Ceramics that do not have a marking do not sell. Just because a ceramic has a marking does not mean it will sell.
  • Stuff the sales easy: rulers; enameled, hand painted victorian buttons; fancy marbles; fancy lighters; rugs; military goods; any non-bubble collectibles.
Services (great if you have a truck)
  • Cleaning, organizing closets, etc.
  • Basic lawn care. Mowing, fertilizing, seeding, raking, shoveling snow, salting sidewalks, etc.
  • This market can be saturated depending on the area, but you can rent a pressure washer from Home Depot and use it for your hustle. Sidewalks, driveways, roofs, fences, etc.
  • Basic car maintaince. Changing oil and oil filter, transmission fluid, antifreeze coolant, spark plugs, battery, windshield wipers, air filters, etc. are all easy. So is hardwiring a dashcam, cleaning the intercooler, and oftentimes changing the brakes. Even stuff like changing out the hybrid battery on a Prius is often easy to di.
  • You can start a painting hustle with ~$1000.
  • Quarterly alarm/sprinkler/whatever testing. Testing safety equipment often requires no equipment and you only need to be licensed with the state.
  • Decorating commercial businesses. Plastic pumpkins and scarecrows for the fall, easter eggs around Easter, Shamrocks in March, etc.
Whatever you job is but you do it under your own LLC.
If you don't have a bullshit job, this is usually the best path. You'd also be surprised by the amount of jobs that have side hustle opportunities.
