Hey, I love the picture! I haven't taken a third job, but as a nurse, I did pick up a part time job, but with all the extra shifts that I've been working at my #1 job, I haven't been able to do the other. So... anyhow, to raise some extra money, we sold bar-b-que sandwich plates for $5/plate; included chopped bar-b-que beef, bag of chips, a pickle and a packaged dessert! Went over real big! I only sold to people here at the hospital (small community Hospital) and the surrounding doctor's offices and made over $600. That was only myself selling tickets. I made up tickets with Reina's picture on them and they were also used as a thank-you note; went along the lines of: "Thank you for purchasing this Sandwich plate. 100% of your $5 purchase goes toward adoption expenses..." Something to that effect. The picture works wonders. You can do a lot this way, especially if you have someone to help you sell tickets, make plates and deliver. Your local hospital is a great place to go,espcially the night shift. Good luck!
