Can I get your opinion? (Job related bs)

Okay, so, about 3 weeks ago, I lost my job at Kmart. So, I was filling out applications like crazy trying to find a new job. The first place that called me back was Olymipa Sports. I got the job and now work there as a Sales Associate. BUT, the job is only 15(max) hours a week, and $8.40 an hour. So, complete shit really. But it's a job!
The next place that called me back was a taffy place on the boardwalk, Fralinger's. So, I got two jobs now, great! I start that job on Tuesday. The lady who is the manager is very nice and is willing to give me whatever hours I want! That job will only be for about a month and a half though, as it is only seasonal and they close at the end of September.
Then yesterday, TWO places gave a me a call back for an interview! One is for a Converse store and the other one is for a customer service job at the Tanger Outlets (imagine the help desk for a mall, pretty much). I have the Converse interview on Monday and I need to call the Tanger Outlets place back on Monday for a phone interview.
My friends and family think I should take whichever job pays the most and would give the most hours.
What I'm thinking of doing, is possibly taking on THREE jobs, just until the end of September when that seasonal job ends, and then just working two jobs.
I need to save up money for a car hopefully by January so I can go back to school.
But I just don't know what to do right now and am very stressed out over all of this..... what would you do if you were in this situation?

FA+

I would tend to agree with the family/friends group in regards to what job to take, although I would say to consider both pay and work benefits. Also, is it a job you've heard bad things about from other people? That sorta stuff doesn't appear in a vacuum, so they may pay more to try to keep folks working in a somewhat toxic environment.
I haven't really heard anything bad about working there, so I'm assuming it would be okay...maybe, lol.
But yea, I'm keeping it all in mind of course
But it's still driving me crazy Dx
