Sell somewhat useful stuff you don't need on eBay.

Get a job.
I made $8/hour doing web scripting work for the company my dad works for. Final outcome: $960. Granted, I'm not allowed to use it... Stupid college fund...

If you want the laptop, you'd get a job and walk in the snow.
Between a job and ebay, I dunno what else to tell you.

You don't have many options. It seems like you can:

Sell some of your belongs.
Get a job.
Do lawn work for neighbors (in this case, shoveling snow).

I worked for my dad over the summer @ $10 an hour and made a grand total of $3400. The only way i see you making 600 dollars by the end of summer is getting a high paying job and working atleast 8 hours a day. :p

I worked from the first day of summer to last friday 8 hours a day. It destroyed my summer, but I don't regret it.

Snow in september?

Sorry bud, unless you're a convict, the only way to make money is by working. Unless you like, had really rich parents.

I worked at Publix 5-7 hours every Monday,Wensday,Friday and sometimes Saturday, and I got paided 7.15 an hour and I ended up getting a little over $1,200 working for 2 months. So your best bet would be something NOT at a grocery store. Minimum wage here is like 6.50 I got a raise because I had to clean the damn bathrooms for 2 weeks. /cut

It's September in Alaska where Kirk lives.

As I said before, if you can't drive any distances to work, your best bet is shoveling snow in your neighborhood.

If you're really desperate borrow it from a family member (who's good for it) and then work to pay them off.

There is really no way to get money unless you sell stuff, if you're not willing to get a job that is. However, I'd say if you really wanted that laptop you'd walk in the snow to get the job.

I think he means getting a job in general.
If you got one now you wouldn't really have problems like this in the future.

I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way
(nana) Why don't you get a job
Say no way, say no way ya, no way
(nana) Why don't you get a job

Well I guess it ain't easy doing nothing at all oh yeah
But hey man free rides just don't come along
every day

(oh yeah!)
I won't give you no money
I always pay
(nana) Why don't you get a job (get a job!)
Say no way, say no way ya, no way
(nana) Why don't you get a job!

Edited a bit...But I think the point gets across...Get a job, you get money you get happy that you can do a lot more than you used to.

I'm sure that laptop isn't a total necessity. Plus, things are much more awesome if you work for it, you value it more and take more care of it....Much more than those stupid "sweet 16" girls do (see favourite tv show post by me)
