2 Ways to Make $1,500 During the Pandemic

We all know that the economy looks pretty awful due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Federal guidelines for social distancing forced non-essential businesses to close. That’s resulted in more than 30 million unemployment claims over a six week period. If you do still have a job, you may have been furloughed or received a pay cut — or both.

Depressed yet? Here’s a bright spot. There are actually ways to make money during the pandemic. Here are the best ones that we’ve found…

 

1. This Research Company Will Pay You up to $225/Month to Watch Videos

What if we told you a research company would pay you to watch cooking videos on your computer?

It’s too good to be true, right?

But we’re serious. InboxDollars will pay you to watch short video clips online. One minute you might watch someone bake brownies and the next you might get the latest updates on Kardashian drama. All you have to do is choose which videos you want to watch and answer a few quick questions about them afterward.

No, InboxDollars won’t replace your full-time job, but it’s something easy you can do while you’re already on the couch tonight wasting time on your phone.

It’s possible to earn up to $225 per month watching these videos, meaning you can rack up $1,500 in about six months.

It’s already paid its users more than $56 million.

It takes about one minute to sign up, and you’ll immediately get a $5 bonus to get you started.

2. Get Paid up to $600/Week to Drop off Starbucks

Your city is filled with two things: Starbucks, and people who don’t want to leave their house for Starbucks.

An app called Doordash will pay you to pick up and deliver an extra latte when you’re already out and getting your caffeine fix. And it’s not just coffee. You can deliver from Chipotle, Chick-fil-A, Five Guys and hundreds of other restaurants in your area.

With Doordash, you set your own hours and work as much or little as you want, meaning how much you make is up to you.

You’ll earn money for each delivery, plus tips. Jose Neri, from California, reports earning $500 to $600 a week working just lunches and dinners.

The best part? No passengers — that grande, no-whip macchiato will be the only thing to hear your beautiful singing voice.

If you sign up for Doordash now, it’s possible to get your first paycheck this week.
