Chores are a necessary part of every day life for each and every one of us. We all have to carry them out to keep a clean and tidy home, and – face it – they are quite possibly THE most boring thing to do in the world.

I thought I’d tell you about this cool new website I’ve found: LocalFavours.com. It’s a brand new concept for people that are tired of doing household chores, making home improvements and much needed repairs. It allows you to pay others to do jobs while you sit back, relax, free up some well needed spare time and take a moment to yourself. (On the other hand you can make money by doing the tasks or jobs for others.)

LocalFavours.com’s recent survey shows that the most hated household chores include:

• DIY
• washing the car
• cleaning windows
• painting
• cleaning the bathroom
• gardening
• ironing

Alternatively individuals can search for jobs in their local area, do someone a favour and make some money in their spare time; there is no limit to the amount of jobs that can be done.

So for those that fancy themselves as a bit of a handyman, or are willing to work for their money then LocalFavours.com can help to find jobs for you to do and get paid locally, the system has endless potential.

Whether you’re a student in need of extra cash, retired with spare time on your hands or simply someone who would like to supplement their part-time work then consider offering your services as a way to make more money. You can choose the type of work you do and how much time you dedicate to favours in your local area, it’s the ultimate flexi-hours programme.
