How To Earn An Extra £200 To £500 Every Weekend By Using Your Credit Cards

The premise behind this idea is based on using your credit cards to get a cash advance and pay them back later. It also includes the fact that Visa and Master Card are accepted by many businesses.

Through my life I have come across many different money making programs and ideas. Many of them I have used myself and a few I still do use now and again. This one is definitely one of my favourites, it's called surplus goods. There is a very large industry involved with the trading of various types of surplus goods. You can find goods where new merchandise is selling at close to 90% off the wholesale price.

The nice thing about these surplus or bankrupt stock companies is that most of them deal with just about anybody, and most will take credit cards or cash. Your purchase could be made at tremendous discounts and you could sell the products, make a substantial gain and never have to use any of your own cash.

In order for this idea to work you need to know of dealers in your area to contact. Look through your local Yellow Pages or magazines like Exchange and Mart for sources of supply.

Write to them and ask for a copy of their catalogues. Make sure you use a business name and type the request. When you get the catalogue see what might be of interest, or contact them and ask if they have any special offers not yet advertised.

What you have to remember about this enterprise is that having purchased your goods for the best price in town, these goods can be sold to friends and family, work associates, at flee markets, swap meets, garage sales, carboot sales, want ads and local newspaper ads, sometimes for free.

Here is an example of one thing you could do. Say you found a good deal on some tools at 10p a piece. You would advertise in your local freesheet or newspaper or go along to a carboot sale and sell the tools at 50p to £1 each, or even sell the complete stock to a trader at 25p per tool. Your marketing strategy and product lines are entirely up to you. The result will be a nice return on your investment.

Another way is through auctions and collectibles. These are great ways to make money. You need to know a little about these before you attempt this. Go to a library and do a little research first so you will know exactly what you want to do when you enter this arena. Auctions and estate sales are held in communities everywhere. You can find out about auctions in your local area by looking in the phone book or calling chamber of commerce.

Government, Court and Receiver seizures and repossessions are another excellent opportunity for profit. There are many wealthy folks who come about their wealth in the wrong way and have all their property taken from them and auctioned off. These auctions are  regular in big cities and heavily populated areas. They are usually advertised in the local paper but you could also learn about them through auctioneers.

The above information was to open your eyes about investment philosophy of credit cards. I gave you just a few ideas here but I want you to realise this: there are thousands of money making opportunities and ideas out there. Now that you know the basics the door is open for you to use your mind and come up with a few winners of your own. \after all, those are the most fun, and the most profitable.
