I leave Janurary 10th and i want to have a camera before i leave. i want to be able to remember this experience with pictures! Thanks for the support and ideas!|::::|you can always have a yard sale, get rid of stuff you don t need or want. Wash cars, walk dogs, get a quot;seasonal job.quot; Save lunch money and take your own food. You can even make food for others and sell it to them. Ask your friends to save their cans so you can recycle them. Or you can always ask your parents for money and tell them you ll pay them back with interest!! good luck and congrats!!|::::|ask your for it for christmas or get a job|::::|Alot of places are hiring for holiday help right now. You could get a job and/or do alot of babysitting. You could offer a gift wrapping service. Put up flyers around your neighborhood to wrap gifts for busy moms, or put up Christmas decorations for $$.|::::|mebey go out and get a job,and if you have a lot of snow,then you could shovel some 1s drive way
