At 7pm EST tonight (Midnight UTC), some Etsy sellers may have a confused look on their faces. If you have overdue bills — as described in this post — you will not be able to list new items until you pay.  We know there are many of you out there!  You haven't been reading the announcements!

Or, perhaps you don't have the cash.  The average overdue bill is a measly eight dollars. Thus...

Eight ways to make $8. There's so much free money out there!

1. Take your old books to resell at a bookstore; old clothes to the consignment shop; sell DVDs and CDs you no longer use.
2. Recycle your cans.
3. Have a bake sale.
4. Empty out your old bags and wallets and search in coat pockets and under couch pillows.
5. Sell your hair.
6. Check  the gigs section of Craiglist.
7. Give blood.
8. Take your guitar/flute/kazoo to the park to make a little extra cash.
