I turn £2.50 into £160 in minutes by selling my used foot masks & flog my ear buds for £85, it’s much better than a 9-5
A YOUNG woman has decided the usual 9-5 office job isn’t for but has still found a way to make hundreds.
Latiesha Jones took to social media to show how she makes cash by selling her used hygiene products – from filthy ear buds to foot masks.
In one clip, the savvy young woman said: “Your friends all work serious 9-5s and you spend your days selling ear buds.”
In the clip, Lateisha showed herself digging in her ear with the tool before replacing it in a cute silver postal bag to the lucky man who paid £85 for the relic.
“It’s a lifestyle,” she added.
Another video saw the young woman head to the supermarket to pick up a sock-style foot mask for just £2.50.
When she got home, she sat back and relaxed as the foot mask got to work.
But she wasn’t doing it for a spa day, she had been paid £160 to use the mask and send it off to a buyer.
Another video saw one customer ask for a foot buffer from Lateisha – and of course, he wanted it used.
Lateisha was happy to oblige for the price of £200 – and began scrubbing her feet.
Afterward, she left the foot buffer in her old Ugg boot to marinate in the smell before sending it off.
And that’s not all, Lateisha has even made £1,500 by saving her toothpaste spit in a small bottle and sending it off to customers.
The savvy young woman also has coaching books for people to buy to help them start their own careers.
She’s gone viral on social media with over 187k likes on her TikTok account @latieshajoness1 and people were quick to share their thoughts in the comments, envious of her seemingly easy career.
One person wrote: “Sign me up right now…. how.”
Another commented: “This is the life I need.”
