Okay, as the title says, I need tips on how to make money. I need about £250 by next Friday. I'm 15, so bare that in mind, and I have school, so a job can only be afternoon work. I will not:

Sell my body :cD
Use any stupid solutions
Tell you why I need the money

Just give me any way in which you have made this amount of money. I'm prepared to sell some of my stuff. I did try selling my 100 boxed Spectrum games, but the bloke in the shop (I asked three places!) said they are too OLD! OLD, so define Retro for me then. Retro is 1986 (my games were made then), they asked for 1994 stuff! Pfft. So I can't sell them unless I use eBay. So, get writing away and give me your tips.

The human body is priceless on the blackmarket...Sell a kidney and you could buy yourself a nice BMW to replace the donkey that pulls your caravan.

I recently sold a fair few of my PS1 games and about 5 PS2 games, got about £111 for it, could try that.

I will make this money. Somehow. How much does it cost to sell on ebay? And for eBay to take some money, the product actually has to sell, right? I'm going to sell all 100 games online :c)

HAH, comedy night on SR. The donkey that pulls my caravan is getting very tired, that's why we sold the caravan. Now he has nothing to pull (I'm gunna regret saying that!)...and I have nothing to live in :c(

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
10/10
Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
