No summer jobs :(
I really want to work during the summer, I applied to over 20 places on snagajob.com and got no answer back  I put any time and days I could work, does not matter, still no answers after 2 weeks 
Do you know any other sites that I could look for summer jobs.... I badly want to work, bored! I also went to couple of stores here and applied, still no answer back.

Are you under or over 18? If under, ask around to friends and where they work. Certain companies seem to be ok with under 18 while others are not. This may give you some ideas.
i'll add.... car washes, landscapers, and swim clubs (concessions, etc) to the list of companies already provided. These types of businesses need more PT help in the summer.

Go to the mall dressed office casual.
Apply one after the other after the other.
99% of mall jobs are better than fast food jobs. Many pay more.
You will have more choices if you are female since more clothing stores are female clothes. Its rather doubtful Victoria Secret will hire a male. Even as a male you should get a minimum of 12 apps easy at any decent mall.

And this my children, is the unintended consequence of the hike in the minimum wage.
Employers cut back on Summer hires and entry level positions.
Those who saw this coming, raise your hands.
