I know American Girl Dolls are a lot of money so here are some tips to get money for a doll. 1. Try finding jobs from your family members or neighbors to earn some money. 2. Sell lemonade in the summer it's an easy way to get some cash. 3. Have a yard sale. Sell some old things you don't use anymore. Now, when you get the money you probably won't have a place to put it so you won't have the urge to spend it. I recommend getting any type of container and tape or write a sign that says "AMERICAN GIRL DOLL" on the container so you know that the money needs to be saved. In just enough time you will have enough money to buy the doll. :)
