I hear you! Tried a few. The only good survey one for me was Pinecone Research but you have to find a banner link to sign up! Was good though - £3 per survey and no messing.

I may try FBA (fulfillment by amazon) again. Didn't do well on my first attempt!
Certain used goods/thrift seem to sell well on Ebay (Loads of videos on Youtube)
There's alway fiverr too - worthwhile if you scale it right.

Hope that helps. good luck!
