Answer:
it's a little embarrasing, but you can go to your neighborhood, and mow the lawn for money

Well your to old for a paper route and they suck anyway, you could talk your nabors into letting you cut there lawns, and if you do a good job word will get around and you will have your money in no time, or at your age you could get a job at a fast food place, but at 15 you would need a workers permit that you get from your High School which let's you work at your age, I got my first car at 12, did paper route, Der Weinersnitzel, then gas station and on and on, the hardest part is convincing someone you really want the job, so apply then every week go back and ask again, when a job opens your the one they will remember to hire, My mother told me that 35 years ago and has never failed me, Im 46 now.
There's lots of ways you can make a few dollars! I delivered the local newspaper for years when I was a kid - fromt he age of 8 until I was the day before I had to leave for university. It paid well and didn't interfere with my life - it started me on a lifelong pattern of getting up at 5am! I also mowed many lawns. The best contact I ever had for lawn mowing was passing the world around at Church. So many seniors would go away to their summer bungalows and want their lawn mowed twice per week. I made like $2,000 per summer just mowing lawns back the mid-nineties.....again I did this through university. I also mowed the lawn of my church wich they paid me for (although I never asked) The other thing is working at a summer camp - you can't spend the money until after the summer so it gets saved. It won't pay big but its a summer job you'll never regret and never forget! Babysitting is good, although girls mostly have this industry locked up! Good luck!

You could get "real job" if your parent would let you. That's going to be the easiest, most steady way to earn money. In addition to that you can do yardwork, or other odd jobs around your neighborhood. I had a friend growing up who did this, and did very well for himself.

Nobody really wants a real job ,but a good way to make money is collecting cans and bottles , it takes SOME effort but you ll be surprised how much you can make + its good for the environment.

You could do yard work for elderly people or mow lawns. Babysit Walk dogs. Check and be sure that you aren't old enough to get a part-time regular job. I have a fifteen year old granddaughter in Virginia that works part time in a fast food place and she makes $7.50 an hour. But the law limits the amount of hours that she is allowed to work. Also, My elderly mother hires a young man to do her vacuuming and wash her windows. Good luck.

i know of a15 year old that works at Macdonald's. Also you can advertise yourself around the neighborhood for doing odd jobs such as mowing the lawn, raking leaves, cleaning out gutters, weeding a garden, etc. try a morning paper route too.

You could actually do odds and ends. I know it doesn't seem like much, but actually older people would probably pay good money to a hard worker that would do a little landscaping such as cutting grass, trimming hedges, planting flowers. You could put up flyers in your neighborhood. Babysitting is always good as well. Talk to your parents see about doing extra chores around the house even other family members that maybe live near by and see if they need any help. Good Luck to you! God Bless. I hope that I got some ideas running through your head! You could also see about dog walking!

Some fast food places will employ you at 16. Some "under the table establishments like car washes and errand services probably will..but no guarantee of payment. Try a paper route walking dogs or mowing lawns.
Baby sitting always works. lots of "dirty jobs" like jobs no one really likes.
