A SAVVY-STAY-AT-HOME-MOM has revealed how she made $300 in one week, with her fun fall side hustle. Lisa has tried every side hustle under the sun, and last October, had great success delivering pumpkins to people’s doorsteps. tiktok/somo.mamaLisa made $300 from selling pumkins[/caption] tiktok/somo.mamaShe wants to make more cash by decorating people’s porches for fall[/caption] “I was just selling pumpkins out of the back of my car, and delivering them to people’s porches”, she said. The mom was inspired to start her seasonal side hustle, after her parents lovingly grew 20 pumpkins, and weren’t sure what to do with them. She asked her followers if anyone would want her to deliver her a pumpkin, and was met with a resounding “yes”. The thrifty mom then headed to Hobby Lobby, and picked up some cute ribbon to decorate her pumpkins with. “I charged $15 a pumpkin, and I sold out!”, she said. Lisa revealed that she had never heard of a pumpkin delivery before, so feels like she hit a gap in the market. “People love to welcome hall, so I just tried it, and it was a hit”, she said. The side hustle was especially successful with the elderly, who weren’t able to get out and about to decorate their porches themselves. Lisa now dreams of turning her pumpkin business into a service, where she decorates people’s front porches for fall. “These pumpkin deliveries were so fun for me, it was so fun to bring smiles to people’s faces”, she said. She added that, although she got her pumpkins for free, there are some states in the US where you can buy pumpkins in bulk, for a cheap price. Lisa’s video (@somo.mama)has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 50,000 views on the video sharing platform. TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts. Side hustles and tax implications Extra income you make from side hustles may need to be reported to the IRS. If you receive more than $600 in gross payouts from a selling platform like eBay, the site will issue you a Form 1099-K to use in your tax return. Individuals should calculate their adjusted gross income, taxable earnings, and deductions for the year. Once they have that, they can use the 1040-ES form to calculate estimated taxes. One person said: “You are awesome Ms Entrepreneur you did a wonderful thing helping the elderly!” A second person said: “I would definitely pay for a pumpkin delivery!” A third person said: “Amazing!! Especially for those who can’t get out much, they can experience all the fall feels!” A fourth person added: “I absolutely love this idea.”
