Target is offering the Apple Trackpad Magic Mouse 2 (MLA02LL/A) currently for $39.99. This is an item that costs $79 + tax at Apple. This is where you can make a profit.

Step 1
Go to CardBear and buy $80+ worth of Target gift cards for 10% off

Step 2
Wait for the e-gift cards to arrive in your email
CardCash usually takes a few minutes

Step 3
Go to Target Online and buy 2x Apple Magic Mouse 2 for $39.99 each
Shipping is free

Step 4
Wait to receive the items or pickup in-stores

Step 5
Go to eBay and post the mouse for $54.50

Step 6
Once sold, pack the item in a bubble mailer you kept from other deliveries and ship the item
Shipping through USPS should be less than $4.50

Total Calculation
Sold Price is $54.50
eBay Fee is $5.45
Paypal Fee is $1.88

Cost of item is roughly $40
Total Profit : $2.67

i think its time to fire emma johnson from this site, this is the most ridiculous thing she's ever posted. you really have no life if you go through all of this to make 2 bucks.
 
Or make an 'Anything Helps' cardboard sign and stand at a freeway off-ramp.
 
Assumptions made:
1. This is at all worth doing for $2
2. You can definitely sell the item for $54.50
3. The buyer on eBay won't fraudulently claim the item is defective causing you to have to pay for return postage in order to receive their own mouse that broke last week
 
Is this an April fools joke in June? All this work for $2 is insane
 
dont think its so bad of a post. lets see how it goes. They have a limit of 4 but i was able to make 3 different orders. 12x$6 since i dont have sales tax in OR. worst case i have 30 days to return right.
 
Why doesn't Spoofee allow us to rate people who post. Anytime I see an underwhelming, ridiculous, and/or repetitive deal, it's almost surely Emma. Please Spoofee, put some quality controls in place!!!
 
Here's another great way to make $2:
1) Buy the Sunday newspaper ($2-$5)
2) Cut out all the coupons
3) Drive to the nearest Walmart ($2 in gas)
4) Stand next to the item for which you have the coupon
5) Sell the coupon to the customer for $0.25
6) If you sell 36 coupons at $0.25 each you have $9, having spent $4-$7 on the paper and the gas, meaning anywhere between $2-$5 profit.

If you do this every Sunday, it could mean over $100 a year! You do run the risk of being kicked out of Walmart permanently, and being labeled the town weirdo, but who cares? You're rich!
 
I bought 40 and actually sold mostly for ~$5-7 profit thanks to combined shipping. 2 buyers bought 10 so shipping was easy too. Another 40 on the way.
 
I ordered 20 and was lucky to find a local buyer to take them for $50 each (not a bad $200 profit). My friend was smarter. He ordered over 100 units and contacted all the computer stores nearby. They negotiated and agreed at $46. $600 profit for the same amount of work. Not a bad day for him.
 
I would add to the risks that customer may say he never received the item. This is what just happend to me. $100 loss...
