  • By Tommy Tindall, NerdWallet The holiday season can add up. On average, shoppers are expected to spend a record $902 per person on holiday purchases this year, according to the National Retail Federation.

The article from MSN Money outlines three strategies for earning an extra $500 during the holiday season.

Second, taking on freelance work is recommended; this could involve leveraging skills in writing, graphic design, or other areas on freelance marketplaces like Upwork or Fiverr. Lastly, the article advises participating in the gig economy by driving for ride-share services like Uber or Lyft, or delivering food with apps like DoorDash or Postmates, which can provide flexible hours and immediate income. Each method provides a way to boost holiday funds without long-term commitments.
