What's love got to do with internet marketing? (Contest inside)

I'll make the story part of this post as short as possible.

I'm currently doing well online with a variety of projects (I'm full-time online). I'm using just about all of my profits to get out of debt and to help a couple of family members who are down on their luck for the time being. I spend very little on myself outside of living expenses.

That said, I've recently decided to save for an engagement ring for my girlfriend. I intend to spend the rest of my life with the most amazing woman I've ever met, and I'd like to get her a ring for Christmas.

The problem is that I don't really have much money that I can put towards it over the next month (yikes, just realized I have less than a month now!). I've vowed to myself to get completely out of debt before I marry this girl because I think it'd be unfair to her to bring my debts along with me into our life together. So, using the money that is going towards the debt elimination for the ring isn't an option.

I know a lot about internet marketing. I know a lot about the marketing side of things, and I also know a lot about the technical side of things. I just need some ideas on how I can make my girlfriend the happiest woman in the world this Christmas by raising enough money to get her a nice engagement ring.

I tried running a WSO about a month ago, but it flopped without a single sale. I believe it's because I'm fairly new around here.

I guess I'm just looking to maybe brainstorm with you fine folks on what I can do in order to pull this off. I know I can do it, I know I will do it, it's just a matter of working out the details. I'm not looking to make a million dollars here, just a few grand to be able to buy the nicest ring that I can afford (could also use some advice on rings from the ladies among us!).

So, in exchange for your ideas, I'll commit to purchasing the engagement ring through the affiliate link of the person that comes up with the best idea that I choose to run with for this. I've been looking at some rings online, and most stores offer 5-10% commission to affiliates, so that'd be a nice chunk of change for someone.

Please either leave your idea(s) here, or you can direct message me if you'd like. I really appreciate the help, and I'll be sure to update everyone after she says yes!

Thanks!

    For that type of money that fast I would suggest one of these two methods...

    It has a lot of potential if you can get out and make the sales

      Thanks, I've been sending out letters to businesses as suggested, but haven't heard back from any yet. Once the holiday has passed this weekend I'm going to do some face-to-face "cold calling" with some to see if that works a little better. I'm definitely pursuing that, thanks.

    What about domain flipping?

    Get a good domain name, put a product or two on it, populate it with some affiliate product Adsense like links, add a blog, get plenty of traffic to it and then sell it on Sitepoint or eBay.

    Then rinse and repeat.

      Thanks guys. I've been thinking about offering some services to raise a little cash and then leveraging that cash into something bigger. Of course, if I can land a couple local business clients in the next couple of weeks I'll be all set.

      Are there any services that come to mind that I could offer Warriors that haven't been beaten to death yet?
