I suggest renting, whether it be Gamefly or Blockbuster it all adds up. I had 20K last November and I'm already up to 60k and I haven't even dedicated all of my rentals to easily obtainable 1000Gs, hell I've even rented over 5 PS3 games since then and I've still gone up an a good amount.

Two words for you. GAME FLY
Recently GF has been sucking ass on sending me anything new release, but they are pretty good at sending some of the older easy games.
Depending on how much time you play, you can get rental packages from 1 to 4 games at a time.

Here is another great tip... Never give up, because you never know how simple an achievement really can be to obtain.
Isn't that right, AJ!?

nope, your pretty much shit out of luck if you don't want to do either one of those other then renting.
hit up Meta's Waffle List for a list of easy 1000's...Some of the games aren't quite easy thought because you have to make yourself play the damn thing...like Eragon, I hated that forking game but made myself keep playing it for the easy 1000 points.

*chough* Quake 2 *chough*
And Weekly GC Competitions really help too. I signed up for a weekly competition and I was like "I'm gonna do really bad, I have no achievements I can get" Then I got maybe 300 or 400G that I didn't think I could get.
And if you visit family/relatives that game, play some co-op with them, you'll definitely get achievements that way.

As others have said, renting games is the way to go.
What I would recommend is to check your nearest Blockbuster first. If they have a good amount of games you haven't played and want to, sign up for their Game Pass. It's about $20 a month and you can grab a game, keep it as long as you want, and bring it back and swap it out for another as often as you want.
If your BB doesn't have much you're interested in, then go with GameFly.
Always keep in mind that XBLA games are only worth 200 points so play them for fun, not gamerscore.
Another important thing is, if you are playing an "easy" game and you've been at it for hours and aren't enjoying yourself at all, then take a break and play something else.
If you come back to the game later and are still struggling to force yourself to finish it, then just abandon it and get a different easy game. Even when you're going for Achievements/gamerscore, the point of gaming is still to have fun, and playing too many "easy" games you hate will just get you burnt out on what is supposed to be a fun hobby and not a job.

One of the best pieces of advice I can ever give anyone, is to find yourself a dedicated boosting partner. There are tons of co-op or multi-player achievements out there that are so simple to acquire.
Renting games is an inexpensive way to boost your achievement score. Gamefly is hit or miss on renting games. But they do have tons of older games that you can get started on.
Ebay also has tons of used games that you can pick for quite cheap.
