In our town, the typilca bottle recycling project grosses $300.
This requires some pickup for people who can not get out
but worked pretty well as a recycling project.

A car wash in town will net $500 for a days work (8 hrs)

Another easy idea is at Burger King run a cash-o-la where you
advertise and have your friends eat there. BK gives you 20% of
sales for your efforts. 3 hours yielded around $150.
