Try Lowe's or Home Despot. Sam's Club might also be a good place. You're losing money, IMO, wasting your car to deliver food. I'd rather take welfare than deliver.

Wear and tear on your car is a minimum of 48.5 cents/mile. I would think all those places need overnight stockers. Wal-Mart needs them too, as would K-mart and Target. Any work study jobs available through school?

Hit up your school would be my first suggestion, then look at all the bulletin boards around school for opportunities. Using your own (nearly new) vehicle for low-wage work and tips isn't a very good idea.

It depends on the hours you want to work. An after hours stocker doesn't even get started until 11pm or later. When I worked after hours for Publix as a stocker I'd get to work at 1am and work through 10am. It also depends on what kind of skills you have. Unfortunately, jobs through the school always pay min wage. Hell if I don't get at least $15 per hour to work it's not worth my time.

Have you tried hitting up UPS, Fedex, or DHL? They all need overnight package handlers. I know for a fact UPS has a "twilight shift", think it's like 10pm to 6am - something like that.

Worked for UPS years ago, worst ******* job I ever had. But hey it's better than nothing. Check online if they have a hub near you, and if they do I think you can apply online as well.
