[QUOTE=BrQ;20553214]What the fuck, 30 dollars for jailbreaking a goddamn iphone?
If you're telling me people actually pay that money[/QUOTE]
Not everyone is a tech geek and/or knows where to get necessary tools for it. A school is usually good for that kind of stuff because a) Dumb hipsters with rich parents almost always have an iPhone b) They don't know the price range for jailbreaks and are probably too dumb to have a look. Ultimate profit.
Cigs, drugs, rubbers, tech shit, selling stolen stuff, bribery, "favors", if it's a bad idea you can make money off of it.
What, no one sells ANYTHING at my school. Vending machines suffice.
Except drugs maybe, but I don't know about that either.
And why would you buy condoms at school when you can just get them in a shop/at a vending machine much more anonymously?

Yes, because some parents are rich as hell and somehow they have children that are stupid as shit.

We don't have vending machines unfortunately... :(
Bullying.
Anyone know how much a Game Boy game would sell for?
Where do you live? I live in Finland and always when I go to estonia, I buy some cigarettes or snuff for half the price and I win 2-2.5 € ea when I sell them at school.
E: a case of 20 cigarettes costs 4-5 € (5.5-7$) in Finland.
Protection racket.

What I do is stockpile scantrons and pawn them off during midterms for a buck a piece. There are always saps who forget about it entirely.
But that's mainly in college unless your school is too cheap to provide scantrons.

Well, if they're so smart enough to find out what jailbreaking is, you should also be smart enough to find out you can do it yourself quite easily (3.1.2 is just pressing one fucking button, and it's done within seconds). Even if you find it too hard to do it, you should ask someone to do it for you, but not for fucking $30.
If they're rich, then forget what I said above.
Some guys in my school made a shit load of cash just buying loads of sweets, chocolate and drinks really cheaply and then selling them for store prices.
This is how

Buy a bunch of confectionary, drinks and crisps ect. and begin selling it off. Keep sales relatively low like 3 a day and build them up. Remember to keep prices relatively low at the start and then raise it a little. Once you find a number of sales you like stick to them. Don't go overboard or you [I]will[/I] be caught.
If you play an instrument give lessons
In my school it isn't allowed eat bubble gum during class
Then some people here sell them, and others actually buy it even though the store is just 2 minutes away

You could run a little homework service.. If you're smart, a couple bucks for a guaranteed A might go over well
of course, there are more lucrative ideas you could go with, but this seems easy.

I like this. undercut the school cafeteria by a small amount, and there's no reason not to buy from you
Sell weed and liquor.
Well i make about 25$ at my school per week for making fruit for smaller kids who're in school after 14:00.
You could whore yourself out
$30 for Jaibreaking an iPod? wtf? It can be jailbreaked just pressing a button in a über-simple program. That is called Blackrain. I would understadn $5, but $30? C'mon, some people is just retarded if they doesn't search how it's done and trying before having their ipod jailbreaked by someone
OP, you would be violating the law unless you had a licence to sell any kind of goods or services.

[QUOTE=Hammertime;20553102]Can you go outside the school during breaks? If not, you could have a golden business selling stuff everyone wants during lunch break. If you can, you could sell stuff to lower grades/people who can't go outside.[/QUOTE]
I used to do this. Grades 7-9 at my Highscool couldn't leave campus, so when we hit Grade 10, it was business time. Chocolate bars were $1.00 inside the school, or four for $1.00 at the local Superstore. Me and some friends would drop a $50, load up on them, them bring them back and sell them for fifty cents. We then began selling pop too. 12-pack was $3.50 for most types, sell them a fifty cents each as well. Things only got better when the school started some healthy marketing strategy bullshit, because they stopped selling their own pop and chocolate bars. So we started selling at $1.00 each for everything.
We were making upwards of $400 a week. Eventually the school stepped in, of course, not because we were profiting off the students, but because we were destroying the point of their new healthy menu or what have you. Then they decided selling to students was bad a week later. Our solution? We started selling on the school's sidewalk. School doesn't own it, the province does. Boy did that piss them off.
We ended up stopping when they threatened lawyers about two months later. We decided to stop. By then we had made something in the vicinity of $6,000 between four of us. Good times.
Also my addition to the topic, if you're in England there's this thing called rainbow dust, it's just like a huge stick of sherbet (i think that is how you spell it) and i buy it in bulk at Costco and sell it for 15/20p each (but you can buy it in single in a shop for 10p)

In my school you can't get any confectionery or fizzy drinks or anything like that, so these guys were the only way you could get a Coke or chocolate or anything like that once you were through the school gates.

It's illegal and he could get into trouble at school for doing so.
[QUOTE=SilentOpp;20553129]There really isn't much you can do to make money at school. You would be much better off finding a job. A school really isn't a good market for... Anything at all really.
That being said, you could always sell things like donuts in the hallway for a dollar each. You could probably make more money selling your items elsewhere but selling off things you own isn't a reliable source of income either.[/QUOTE]
When i was in high school we had a student store that sold almost every type of candy and soda at a lower price then the store. The student store was busier then the main cafeteria. Trust me, if there is nothing like that at his school he could easy sit at a table and sell shit to people.
