The College Student Guide to Holiday Money

1. Sell your books online through sites such as Cash4Books. All you have to do is mail your books in and you’ll receive a credit through PayPal.
2. Get the local Sunday paper for coupons. Follow coupon websites to find out how you can match coupons to sales specials at grocery stores. This is an easy way to get cheap or free groceries. Use these freebies to make holiday goodie baskets.
3. Some shopping centers will give out gift cards to employees (and sometimes customers) that are willing to park a bit further away from the shopping center.
4. Take online surveys to get PayPal money.
5. Enter prize drawings in your area for a chance to win gift cards or other nice gifts.
