Hi J.,

I too am in the same boat. Working at Sheetz/Wal-mart overnight isn't cutting it anymore - I'm 5 weeks pregnant and all I do is sleep or puke! I sold PartyLite for 4 years and when I moved to this area, lost my network and haven't be able to rebuild it. Quite frankly, I'm tired of lugging that stuff all over and setting up great displays for people who may or may not come. Home show type work is no guarantee - regardless of how much they promise it to you. Any home show work you consider should be free start up - you shouldn't have to invest if you don't even know whether you will stick with it. That is one perk to PartyLite - free to get started. If you find anything - let me know. I have looked and lost a lot of money on the work from home "scams" on the internet and have yet to find one that is legitimate and that doesn't cost $500 to get started. Who has that kind of money when you're looking for work???

Good luck and please share any good news with me!

Ali

Hi J.! I don't know if you are still looking, but I am I., a stay/work at home mommy of 3 boys (2 of my own and a stepson), they are 2.5, 11 months, and 8. Read my statement and call me if you are interested. Good Luck!

I am a Marketing Executive with an international wellness company. I AM TOTALLY LOVIN' IT! After being in Mortgages for 10 years, and working crazy hours (no time for quality family time), I’ve turned to another opportunity...and yes, I am on my knees thanking God every night for this opportunity!! You see, I was having a rough pregnancy and watching the changing market in the mortgage industry. I watched as many of my friends went out of business, got very greedy and lost their morals, and quite frankly got disgusted with it all. I was also loving every minute I got to be with my boys, and didn’t have the desire to go back to work if I had to leave them each day. So I went on a search to find the best opportunity for working at home. This Company is great and I help other moms work from home, which is really rewarding! We don't *Sell Products *Deliver Products *Take Orders *Take Money from people. It's awesome, and it's for anyone and everyone, I am NOT a sales person. There is a business portfolio fee of $29 that is the total "start up" fee, awesome huh? Even if you are already working from home, this business is second nature and doesn't take a lot of time and it could supplement your income! My site is below, just go to this link (sorry I cannot hyperlink it on here), request information, and I will give you a call!

answers from Philadelphia on

I am a mom of 2 boys (4 1/2 and 4 months) who works from home. I searched for a 'work from home' "JOB" for many years, and have heard all of the scams. I tried a MLM company, but that just put me in debt once I decided after 2 years of trying to stop. After this, I was determined not to work with a MLM company, and I did not want to put any $$ out of my pocket to start up a demo business(partylite, etc.) Anyway, I took a medical transcription course online with www.careerstep.com. It was a great course, but once I completed it, I did not have any luck finding work. Many people do find work, though. I ended up hearing about a company from a friend that hires homeworkers. It is in Horsham, PA, and it is called Reed Technology. They handle/edit/put together patents. I am not sure if you are anywhere near this area, but if so, you may want to look into it. They do require 2-3 weeks of 'in-house' training in Horsham, which is pretty intense. Then, you are set up with a computer, printer, supplies, etc. from them to enable you to work from home. I edit/code patents, and LOVE it. You have to go in to their facility in Horsham 1xweek to drop-off/pick-up your work. You are usually only there for maybe a 1/2 hour or so. The best part is, you can bring your kids with you. They are very family oriented, which is great! The $$ is ok, but as you get better/faster you have the oppurtunity to make more. Here is their website address if anyone is interested:
www.reedtechnology.com Just click on careers, and then job postings, to the left. I noticed that they do not have 'homeworker' listed at this time, but you may want to give a call anyway. It would not hurt. Good luck!!

answers from Washington DC on

Hi J.,

I earn a part-time income from home and I love my company and the product we offer. It's important for you to find a company that you believe in. A lot of companies require a start-up fee and your initial investment shouldn't be so much that you won't recoup your $$ until you have been in for 2 years!! I am not going to try and sell you on my company, but I can tell you that we are publicly traded on the NYSE. That's very important because if the company is privately held you won't know if they are operating in the black or the red. Make sure you are with a company that will be around for the long haul. If you want more information, I will be more than happy to provide you with some, but I wish you the best of luck in whatever you decide to do.

2nd - if you need it I can sign you as member - price depends on what you need but from $14.94 to $59.95/month for household (last one also includes auto club, identity theft assistance and legal)- starts day you join - can have existing issue - will even discount things like braces, crowns, ...

I also am a single mom, but with one 8 month old son, with no help from the father. I know how tough it is to get by with one income and a baby. I am trying to stay at home with my baby for as long as possible and the company I am working with has allowed me to do so thus far.

Have you ever heard of Melaleuca? It's a Wellness Company. They manufacture wellness and environmentally sensitive products for the home and for personal care.

I'm trying to tell as many people as possible about these products and I think everyone should have them in their home.

ALTHOUGH...there is a start up fee...this month it is only $14.50 compared to $29 normally. Before you cancel it out, let me just tell you that I have been doing this for not even a month and my first check will be here the 15th. I am very excited about it!

If you are interested, I would love for you to contact me to view a presentation and hear more about them. The presentation is about 40 minutes long. They will tell you everything and anything you need to know about the company and how it operates. It is so informational. I learn more and more every time I watch it.

There are presentations everyday, so whatever time and day works best for you and your daughters' schedules, we can accommodate.
