Question about transferring cash into accounts

I've been receiving some extra income due to DNM related activities. To give you a rough estimate, within the past month, I've acquired a grand and a half. Granted, that's nothing compared to what some people make, but I need to make sure that I'm not risking tax evasion by getting this money into my account.

I've held multiple part-time jobs over the course of the past year, so whenever I receive a check those are instantly deposited, along with small amounts of cash ranging from $20-$100. What's the best way to transfer in upwards of 2 grand in cash without raising flags? Considered giving the money to a trusted friend and have him write me a check as a "gift" or something of the sort. Not trying to convert cash assets into non-liquid assets unless I have to.

Also, how suspicious/risky would it be to make purchases ($100-500) on a bank credit card and pay that off in cash in person?

I dont think a grand and a half a month is anything to worry about in the least. I've been putting more then that away every week...and before i started depositting that much I wasn't doing a single thing to "launder" it...now I've decided to start.

No triggers will be set out. Do your business for the next 6-8 months and then get out and be happy you were take you/your family up a notch in the rate race

I use to deposit 3k+ into the atm cash or at the teller every week or so with no taxable job income. I don't think I was smart in those days. But no flags were raised.

Someone will almost certainly be by to tell you that as long as you keep your deposits under $10,000 and spread them out you will be ok... This is false. (Actually someone already did, I'm pasting a previous comment)

Suspicious Activity Reports get generated when you make cash or cash-equivelent transactions ranging from $3000-$10,000. These reports go to various law-enforcement types who investigate them to varying degrees. Suspicious activity reports MAY get filed for transactions <$3,000 if the transaction appears suspicious.
