    I NEED money
    I need ways to get $89 by tomorrow

    Hello baby:

    Collect cans. If you work hard, you can probably get $89 worth by tomorrow.

    Stop by your local restaurant, and tell them you'll clean up and wash dishes...

    Knock on doors in your neighborhood and ask if you can clean up their yard, and haul away trash.

    Go to the pawn shop and sell your favorite jewellery.

    Go stand outside Home Depot and hope somebody wants you to do some labor for them.

    Ask mom for a loan, or volunteer to do dishes for the next year. Ask your favorite uncle for a loan.

    Put a sign on your bicycle and sell it.

    Do you need more?

    Is there a Movie Stop in your area? You can sell dvds.

    Also, check out craigslist. They have a wanted section - you may find something you can sell. Also, try and post things on craigslist to be sold.

    Mow someone's lawn. Clean up someone's yard. Walk someone's dog.

    Babysit.

    Maybe you should ask your parents. At 12 they were the source of my income, all tied to chores of course.

    It's a long story why I need the money

    I believe you have to be 18 or older to post something on craigslist. I could be wrong though.

    Why do you need this money so badly? If it's a matter of life and death I'm sure your parents would lend it to you.

    There's no limit on how many words you can type here. If we had more info we may be able to come up with more suggestions.

    Ouch. 12. Yeah, hon, I don't think you can use craigslist.

    Are you in trouble?

    Obviously, it's not "life or death" because your Mom would help you if it was. If she is only going to give you $20, it seems like it is something you want not need.

    (I'm sorry your Dad died. That's hard. I know that pain.)

    These kids at school stole a bunch of stuff from a store and blamed it on me and my friend maritza and we got charged and my mom won't pay because she doesn't believe me and my friend maritza doesn't have lots of money and we each have to pay $500 by tomorrow or we go to jail but we didn't even do anything and together we already have $911 we only need 89 more dollars

    Hello, reality check here.

    You are a MINOR and as such will NOT be spending any time in jail!!

    So double or quits, would you like to try again?

    But then, can't you defend your cause? Was there any one apart from your friend Maritza and 'those kids' who have seen them? If there were no one, then how could they blame it on you? You were surely somewhere else, where people could say you were with them at that time. It is just unfair that you have to pay for others... except if you did not provide enough information...
