find a neighbor that has a small buisness and ask them to put up door hangers for their buisness.. my neighbor is payin me 25cents a house.. it may not seem like a lot of money, but its fun cause u get to ride your bike around the neighborhood and it slowly adds up.. also for every call he gets because of the doorhangers, the money per house goes up 5 cents

riding ur bike around the neighborhood only works if there is a significant distance from house to house(i.e. 50-75 feet)or if there is extremely long drive ways, in most suburban neighborhoods the lots are 25 ft wide and the ur faster to walk across lawns like mail pplz do
