college campuses usually sell certain computer applications to students at a very reduced price. but they keep track of who they sell it to, and they can only get one copy per year. i'm talking windows, microsoft office, photoshop....shit like that. go to the campus book store, find and pay a student who has a campus ID 10-20 bucks to get the software for you with your card or whatever the fuck. then, go to ebay and damn near double your money. easy. if you live around a college, you probably know a lot of students, and you don't even have to approach strangers. last year i got a copy of windows xp for like 55 bucks and sold it on ebay for over 100. quick easy money.
