Lightbulb Need Ideas....please

Ok, I am a stay at home mom wif lots of financial responsibility. BUT I need to save At Least $3000 as soon as I can. I already sell on ebay to keep our head above float on the normal expenditures, like phone bill, doc bills, etc. I trade coupons/forms etc to get the bargains that I need at grocery stores, etc. And I trade excess forms/coupons for a lil' paypal. I do housecleaning for extra cash, I do other chores around my area. I can't afford a part time nor full time job due to the financial burden of paying a sitter. It would literally take all that I would make and then some. So, that is not a real option at this point. So, here's where my need of idea's come in. Where or How can I make extra money to put towards my savings goal? Any idea's?? I mean, I know I can do yard sales/stockpile sales in the spring summer months, I can and will continue on wif eBay as I have to, but what else can I do? any suggestions would be appreciated.

Edited to add: that I already leave as frugally as possible. No extra's like cable, phone lines, subscriptions, etc. No eating out. I go the cheapest route whenever possible no matter what. I do all my errands in one trip to save gas. I don't have a car payment as it is paid for. I have the cheapest ins to be found on home/auto. I am telling u, I am prolly one of the most frugal people u'll meet.

I also do some surveys, I do the AC Neilson, and those are about the only 2 things that I have found to legitimately work out.
