Extra Ways to Make Money From Home

Wouldn't you like to know how to make some extra from home. Extra cash for your time is a valuable thing. I will post a list below explaining all of what I have tried, what I am doing, and my future expectations on this matter. So, I am back on the saddle again and always looking for new and creative ideas.
In the past I have tried PTC sites, survey sites, affiliate marketing, writing articles for various online sites, decoding captchas, and opening a few online shops without any money investment.
I have learned over time what seems to be the best for me. Let's start with the PTC sites. PTC sites are (Pay-per-click) sites that offer advertisments for your viewing. Ads can last 15 seconds to 30 seconds. After being viewed, you usually have to validate it somehow. Then you are credited for viewing. The pay ranges from 1 cent to 5 cents. There is usually a certain amount of ads available unless you upgrade by paying a memebership monthly. These are usually scams, so I advise to stay away.
The survey site I use and still use today lets me earn atleast 10 cents a day, but that is for only reading their paid emails, that are sent to me everyday. They are legit, and I am on my second cashout. Checks are sent by mail.
Hmmm...affilate marketing. Here's one that just gives me headaches. If you own a website, affiliate marketing might be right up your alley. You can post banners from other sites and earn a commission on every click made by your visitor. The headache happens when trying to keep up with every affiliate code, banner, etc.
I write for 2 different companies. The first one pays more than the second one but they are both legit and safe. The second one gives you an option to link your google adsense account, so you can earn extra revenue from your readers. If someone here would like to try one of these writing websites, would you please use my referral link. At this moment, nobody has used my referral links before. So, please help a lady out here, lol... (Not Professional) I know, but no one if perfect.
I have tried decoding captcha for different companies all to find out that my typing speed isn't up to their standards. I have only found 1 legit site and you have to pass a typing test before getting approved.
I have tried out a few online stores for curiosity. Here are my stores. No out of pocket expense! Completely free! Just takes some hard work. If interested, once again, please use my ref link for this store. Once you have signed up, you will be able to create your our online shop within minutes. They even offer you a choice to link to your Adsense account for extra income. You will also have the opportunity to earn commissions from sales or revenue from clicks. They handle everything and you just create it. Simple!
I have recently came up with an idea and is just now following it through. I wanted to create an online shop with custom print t-shirts, mugs, clothes, and etc. I found 3 so far. Cafepress, Spreadshirt, and Zazzle. Hard to say which is best because I have just started. If you have had any expierence with these companies, please share. I would love to create a design myself but I have no knowledge of that yet. I do alot of writing, especially poems...So, I thought of taking my "Short" Poems and placing them on the Greeting Cards that they have offered at Cafepress. Just an idea I wanted to try out.

Coming up next........A breakdown of each homeworking project. Some will have payment proofs attached.
