Household bills have risen 10 times faster than incomes have grown since the start of the financial crisis, research by price comparison website uSwitch has found.
But if you have already fine-tuned your household finances by cutting energy and food bills, as well as remortgaging, and are still struggling to find spare cash, what can you do?
Here are three ideas to earn extra money from your car. Find more money-making tips on our 50 ways to make money page.
29. Have an advert on your car
Have you ever wondered why some people drive about town with an advert emblazoned all over their car? It's for one reason – to make money. Vehicle ‘wrapping' means having a vinyl graphic advert displayed on your car. Companies such as carquids.com match your driving habits and car up with an advertiser, arrange for your car to be wrapped, and pay drivers a monthly fee.
Depending on how much of your car is covered, you can earn up to £100 a month.
30. Share your car
Easy Carclub (carclub.easycar.com) puts car owners and drivers who occasionally need to hire a vehicle in touch with one another. Drivers hand over their car keys to a stranger for a set time in return for a fee – from £40 a day upwards – and hope they don't crash.
If that seems like too big a leap of faith, blablacar.com enables drivers making a particular journey to advertise for passengers to split the costs.
31. Be a casual courier
Anyvan.com puts people who need a man (or woman) with a van, or car, in touch with people that need things moved.
It works like this: customers say what they want moved and where – for example, a sofa moved from Reading to Guildford – and drivers bid for the job. The customer then picks the offer that sounds cheapest or best.
Our researcher received quotes of £40 to £55 to take an old futon to the local rubbish dump.
The secret to making money as a courier is bidding for jobs on journeys you were planning to make anyway, or combining several jobs on one journey.
