Hello - ideas please

Does anyone know how I can get $2000 fast.  I need this:

REALLY, REALLY BAD.  Let me repeat myself "I need this really, really bad."  I think that I might try something stupid like packing up any CDs, Videos, Video Games and Books and running to Half Price Books and selling them.  I would only probably get about $30, but that would be $30 bucks toward my camera.  I have a outstanding bill for admin work I did on the side and some money in a Mother's Day card from someone in the office, but that still only brings me to about $150 if I'm lucky.  

So, any ideas?  Can you still sell blood or plasma? If so, I say bleed me dry.  I'm not willing to do anything that might get me arrested - so don't even start with the selling my body comments.  In my current condition I would only get about a buck-50 so that's not really worth my time.  Could I start some kind of fund?  Should I start stealing from my husband's wallet, the kids savings.  OK, maybe not the kids savings, but technically that's my money because I am the one that put it in there.  Seriously, I would never steal from my children.  Well at least not for a camera.

I know that I have a nice economic stimulus check coming, but I really don't want to "stimulate" the economy with it.  I want to "buck the system" and pay off a bill.  I know that's not very republican of me.  

Whoops, we are getting off track - I need that camera.  How do I get it?  Seriously, I'm up for suggestions.

oooh! I know, practice your best Miss Cleo voice and pretend you are a psychic. I bet you'd make a killin. I was gonna learn to read tarot once (yeah, dont ask) ..U know there will be a ton of ppl down at the AAC tomorrow. You can do "readings" and I will do their tarot. LOL Sure it'd be a scam but I bet we could make you a few hundred. ROFL, I cant believe I'm writing this. Have I mentioned I've done online readings? LOL
