Maybe cut enough yews in f2p and sell them. It may not be fast money but it is better then nothing. Dung was another method I was going to mention to get 85 dung but was already mentioned. Maybe train mining would be good as well...maybe.

Be careful what you wish for!
I'd go with frosts. I would say merch/flip but if you don't have a lot of cash to start with that's not going to be too profitable.
yeah definitely flipping is a good way. I do some of my flipping using the margins on http://flipchat1fc.forumotion.com/
Most of them buy and sell extremely quickly and its normally 200k+ profit per item, and you can do each item every 4 hours. Easy money!

Well I started doing it a few years back but I had around 500M.
Flipping is far safer than merchanting. Merchanting can have big payoffs though, for example - recently it was announced that special attacks would be coming back and I had a haul of dragon claws just sitting in my bank. I forget what kind of profit margin it was but say I brought them all at 350k each and sold them all for over 2m (I sold them all higher than this but I forget the actual price)
1.65m profit on each - holding say 20 (350 x 20=7m investment) sell for 2m each (40m) profit 33m. I'm currently sitting on an item that if it went back to winning ways I would probably make a billion or so. Risky though!
Flipping is defo faster and steady profit if you do it properly, smaller margins but quick sales. $$$. When you get some serious cash you can flip larger items for big profit.

whats flipping then?
(sorry still a noob)
merchanting is more medium-long term, i.e. buy an item, wait for it's price to actually go up over time, and then sell
flipping is super short term, all you're doing is manipulating the grand exchange (as it always has people buying/selling at a range of prices). The idea is to buy slightly under the 'going rate', and then immediately sell it back for slightly over the 'going rate'.
For flipping honestly you can start with 20m. The more money you have, the more items and the more expensive the items you can flip at once, which equals bigger returns, but with 20m using the website I posted above you could easily start making some decent money.
What I normally do is go to the ge and put my buy offers in, then do a trip at frost dragons- by the time I return all of the items have usually bought. Then I put the sell offers in, and go and do another trip at frosts, by which time they've normally sold. Rinse and repeat with the next items.
