Without reading the thread or even the OP...here are the two best ways to get a raise:
Go out and apply to every single business that does a similar thing as your specific job. Attend all interviews, even if you think the job won't pay as much as your current one with the intent of getting offered a job.
Once you get an offer for higher pay, go to your current employer and let them know you intend on bettering yourself by moving on to a higher paying position elsewhere, but that you really enjoy your current position. The only reason you are moving on is to make more money.
If you are valued at your current position and it wouldn't be cost effective to replace you, they will match whatever offer you were given.
2) go to school to learn a skilled trade and change professions.
Hope this helps.
