I do that daily......

I always get the samples when I go to Costco! They're awesome, and if you go when they're shutting down the sample booths they'll just give you like as many as you want so they can get rid of it all! I mean hell, if you pay for the membership why not?!

Next go to Sam's for their free samples. Remember to take your bike or walk for maximum savings. I know it might suck, but you can always get a remedial job until you find a better one. Like working at McDonalds or something.

Free samples are better than my mom's cooking.

That's not what Costco is for?!?!?!!

I do that, too. Mostly when I'm too lazy to cook but also when I don't want to spend money on food.

When I was broke I lived off the $1 menus at fast food places. Nothing like searching your car for the last nickel you need.

Me and my mom used to go to Sam's every Saturday when I was little just for the free food samples :) Anyway, FYL. Things will get better buddy?

Also, if you ask the door person if you can go in and "compare prices," sometimes they will let you in without a membership. (I've done it here anyways)

Go to your local food bank, church they give to the needy
