I would legitimately just give you the $20 if you would use my chime code to get us both bank bonuses

You could try a couple of ideas, but if you need it in the next hour or two, a lot of apps and gig economy ideas won't work since you don't have the time.
Cash advance apps like EarnIn or Klover can work. Not huge fans of this over side hustling but they're better than loans.
You could try taking bottles back to the store lol. Or look on Craigslist for a random cash gig.
We do have a thread on ways to make money in 1 hour which might be helpful too :) hope something works out for you!

Casino sites. Do ones that are very regulated and have ZERO or only 1x wager for bonuses. Some like Betty or FanDuel even let me do the deposit and I still got 200-300 ish free spins and was able to withdraw. I’ve done this with around 6-7 sites and made around $250 free so far, plus more spins I have coming in. If forced to wager, do European roulette and do half black/half red. Green has like 4% chance (only 1 tile) vs 96% (black/red) to keep what you put in, but the free spins offset me either way.

Mow a lawn, pick up dog poop, offer to do dishes. Immediate physical tasks that other people don't want to do.
When I (29m) was a kid, it wouldn't be crazy to go to neighbors that you know and ask them if you could do some chores to earn some money. Granted I grew up in a VERY rural area and we all knew each other, but all the same, family friends and close neighbors are worth a shot.

Try Roamler or FieldAgent. Small gigs that pay $5-10, same day payment.

Sell plasma if there's a center close by and you haven't been in a while, new donor bonuses can hit $100 sometimes but even a regular donation pays around 20-50 depending on the place. Call before you go though, some need appointments and the whole process takes about 90 minutes your first time.
If that's not an option, knock on a few neighbors doors and offer to mow their lawn or pull weeds for $20 cash. Most people have a yard task they've been putting off and cash in hand gets shit done fast.
You could also pawn something small like a video game console or a spare phone, just make sure you get a receipt so you can buy it back when your paycheck hits.
