If you had asked me years ago “is it possible to make money from home in Canada”, I would’ve laughed and said it was a pipe-dream. Now, I am learning that there are so many ways for Canadians to earn extra cash both online and off through a number of different avenues.
I am so excited to share my extra cash reports with you each month! As you may remember, I have the lofty goal of making/saving an extra $18,000 in 2019!
As a single income, homeschooling family with multiple children, this extra money goes towards our day-to-day living expenses, paying down debt, home learning supplies and splurges for fun vacations and indulgences.

My extra income is a combination of coupon savings, cashback earnings, payments for surveys, freelancing, odd jobs and various side hustles. If you want to learn more about any of the sources that I have earned from, simply click on it to be directed to a review I have written or the site itself.
My earnings are minuscule at best. This is simply because I only have 2-3 hours (often less) to spare each night on money making endeavors. Nevertheless, those couple of hours are enough to give me, a stay-at-home mom extra spending money each month.
Remember, I share my extra earning sources to give you more ideas on how to make extra cash on the side. Please feel free to ask in the comments if you have any questions as I am happy to help!
2019 is definitely getting off to a good start for this Canadian’s extra income!
This was a cold, long winter, and I was in desperate need of a getaway. We decided to take an impromptu trip to Florida for a little sunshine and fun. Fortunately, I had some money tucked away in my Mylo savings app, which helped cover a bit of the trip.

After our little trip, I was feeling refreshed and re-energized and got into spring cleaning mode. I decided to tackle my garage first, with the goal of cleaning it out and creating a better organizational system. Selling stuff that was laying around in there on Facebook has brought in over $400 so far.
I also got a nice little bonus from Thirty-One Gifts. Right now, there is a recruiting promo. Whenever you recruit someone who sells $1000 in their first few months, you can choose from a few rewards. I had someone meet that goal this month (who also got to choose from some rewards) and I picked two $100 Visa gift cards. Definitely a sweet little bonus!
So those few sources, combined with a freelance editing payment and a few reward programs, gave me $1962. 79, just shy of $2000 for the month of March! Here’s hoping the rest of the year is similar!
Here’s where it came from:
$497.95 – Mylo Withdrawal
$410 – Facebook Sales
$329.11 – Newspaper Delivery
$220.25 – Thirty-One Gifts
$200 – Freelance Editing
$140 – PC Optimum
$65 – Swagbucks
$30 – Sobeys General Mills Promo (over now)
$25.18 – Coupons
$21.85 – Caddle
$10 – Papa John’s Pizza Rewards (USD)
$10 – Drop (use invite code 9efqb for a bonus 5000 points!)
$3.45 – CoinOut (USD)
This extra $1962.79 brought me to $3960.92 towards my $18000 goal!
