Los Santos feels busy again this week, and not in the usual "run another heist and hope nobody quits" way. Rockstar has added three new Odd Jobs to GTA Online, and they're paying double GTA$ and RP for a limited time. If you're building up a fresh character, or even browsing GTA V Accounts to jump into the action faster, this is the sort of event week where small jobs can stack into real money before you realise it.
Odd Jobs with a different paceThe new Odd Jobs are the main draw, mostly because they don't feel like standard shootouts with a new coat of paint. Firefighter puts you in emergency mode, dealing with burning buildings, gas leaks, and stranded civilians. Yes, cats too. Forklift Operator is much calmer. You're moving pallets around the Alpha Mail warehouse, lining up shipments, and doing proper blue-collar work in the middle of a city usually obsessed with explosions. Paper Route is the most laid-back of the three, sending you across town for the Los Santos Meteor with papers to deliver and cash to collect. They're quick, easy to start, and good for players who want earnings without a huge setup.
Double payouts worth chasingAll Odd Jobs are paying 2× GTA$ and RP this week, not just the new ones. That gives older tasks a reason to come back into rotation, especially if you've ignored them for ages. RC Time Trials also have double rewards, so skilled drivers can grab a tidy payout in a few minutes. The Featured Race slot is leaning into Issi Classic Races, while the Community Race Series is also boosted. Taxi Work gets 2× GTA$ as well, though not extra RP, so it's better for players who just want pocket money while cruising around. It's a mixed week, but that's not a bad thing. You can swap between chill jobs, races, and business work without feeling stuck in one grind.
Pizza deliveries and business boostsThe weekly challenge is simple: complete five Pizza Delivery jobs. Do that and you'll earn the Pizza This Tee plus GTA$300,000, helped along by tripled rewards for the activity. It's one of those tasks that sounds almost too ordinary, but it pays well for the time involved. Criminal businesses get some love too, with Cocaine Lockup production doubled. If you already own one, keep supplies moving and don't let stock sit around for too long. If you don't, this week's discounts make it a much easier buy. A boosted lockup can bring in serious cash while you mess around with the new jobs.
Discounts that actually helpThe free Pegassi Pizza Boy is the most obvious grab, especially with Pizza Delivery sitting in the spotlight. Cocaine Lockup properties and upgrades are 40% off, which is a strong deal if you're trying to build passive income. Several vehicles are 30% off too, including the Fire Truck, Taxi, Zorrusso, Shamal, Freecrawler, and more. The Gun Van has useful weapon deals as well, with 50% off the Service Carbine and a GTA+ discount on the Military Rifle. Players comparing progress, businesses, and GTA V Accounts for sale will find this week especially practical, because the event rewards daily play without forcing a hard grind.
