Another easy way to make money while in school : Sell cardboard boxes to students for moving stuff back home. A lot of stores simply throw away cardboard boxes, why not get them for free and charge people a couple bucks? Its not going to make you a ton of money, but it could provide enough for a nice meal. At the end of the year, all students that live in dorms have to move out by a certain date. Some people use trash bags, some people have enough storage so they dont need anything else, but a lot of people use boxes also. Go to the stores a couple weeks before, ask for their unused boxes that they are going to throw away (so you can get an inventory), start advertising in dorms and at cafeterias, setup a table with your boxes on moving day infront of the big dorms, profit.
