How to Make 100 Dollars Fast

Look around the house and find something that you can sell for one hundred dollars. Then sell it on Craigslist. Many items sell the same day on that site if the price is right.

2. To make 100 dollars fast, within a day, step out with the day laborers. Not only is this a good way to make some quick extra money, but you might find other ways to make a quick 100 dollars, such as using your truck to haul scrap metal on a freelance basis. It's a good way to find out who needs what in your community

3.  Put an ad on Craigslist and offer to clean houses or do moveouts. You'd be surprised how many people look at the housecleaning ads on that site and decide that they want their house cleaned that day, because company is coming, perhaps. In a large city, you can easily make 100 dollars fast, especially when people give you short notice.

4. Have a garage sale. Almost everyone has enough junk around the house to make 100 dollars fast. Your garage sales doesn't have to last all day, either. Try 9-1 on a Saturday. Donate what's left and write it off.

5. As a last resort, go to a pawn shop and hock your big screen television. Do this only if Uncle Vinnie is on his way to your house, right now. Otherwise, wait.
