Your Masterplan says you're too young to work to earn the money to buy a PS3 and GTA IV.
How old are you exactly? Because I distinctly remember my GTA IV copy has a certain age rating on the box. An age at which working to earn the console becomes an option.

Thanks for the donation offer, I can't really accept donations of people I don't know though, I'm sure you can use it for something better.

Thank you anyways

Why not mow the lawn?

That's what I did when I was 13-14.

Mow the lawn? Impossible here.

I could only get a lil job in vacations, at school time I only have time from five in the evening and because I'm at the high school we have lots of exams every week.

My next vacations are in summer. (6-7 weeks away?)

They only do it themselves is because probably no one has asked to do it for them in exchange for cash?

Either wait for your Birthday, x-mas ect.. OR get a job. You said, you are too young to get a job. Therefore go with the first option..So, "be patient" is the key.

I actually did do that once aswell, I went around a couple doors, made like $13 cash(and a couple cheques) but the minimum to get any prize(some shitty jump rope) was like $29, so i was like fk it, and kept the 13

Seriously, just push it on them

I assume you're younger than 18, in which case adults will love offers to wash cars, mow lawns - they see it as "cute"

Be convincing and just give it a shot!

best of luck, Jamie.

Thats absoulte bull. No trying to generalize or be offensive, but old people, seriously. Most cant mow their own lawns or have difficulty doing it, why most hire lawn services. Under cut your competition, do a good job, and youll line yourself up with a steady income. I would do it around here, but the little bastards are down to $13 a lawn, which is crazy given lawn sizes and the work they do.

Wow, funny how of all things, this thread's getting me most hits( I be the admin/payer of $1 for www.thegreendonkey.com)

I need money too, and what makesus different is the fact that I live in a place/country where there's a fairly major shortage, Saturday morning, i can walk into quite a few resturants, say "I wanna wash your dishes" tehy'll say you;re hired, and put me down for $12.50 an hour that night.

I just don't want to.

So I make up for it by making a lame excuse for a blog XD
Which doesn't get updated all that often anymore(Spring break, we had 10 posts every 1 day, now we get 1 every 10 days)

Anyways, I think all the possibilities are listed,

Get a job, make a resume, Google online for templates on first job resumes
Go around asking people to mow lawns, worst is they say no
Make something and sell it(I'm gonna do this soon, but not gonna say what/where cuz my idea, you no steal)

Other than that, I don't think you're gonna get much more help out of a forum,
that's how people become rich, they come up with inovative ideas to make money and do it.

BTW, question in everyones head, how old,

like I'm 14, and I plan on playing GTAIV, some will disagree with this, but meh, I really don't care what you think.

You could also try the extended, interest free loan from your parents.

They give the money, you pay them back in 4 months when you can get a job.

i say go into a local restaurant/ takeaway store, and ask if they will hire you washing dishes/ things like that. thats probly the only way you are going to make money
bite the bullet for a few weeks and in the end you can reward yourself with the ps3 and gtaIV, hell they might even want to keep you, and you can save for more things
