I was just wondering if most of you guys got things for free. Personally, I take condiments from fast food resteraunts and free soaps from hotels when I can. I also know a guy who lets me rent movies for free. Do any of you guys do anything like this?

I tend to do things just because they're free.

Free McFlurry at McDonalds with student card? Done!

Free movie tickets for a theatre across the city? Done!

Free sandwiches that expire in 12 hours? Done!

Friends offer free food? Done!

50 pounds if I lie down on a couch for 4 hours with my shirt off? Done!

Once of my worst (best?) habits is that I'll finish other people's food if they don't want it. Even if I'm not hungry.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!?!

Whoever dared you to do that for 50 quid is an idiot.
haha, it wasn't a dare. I wouldn't trust any of my friends to pay up. :bee:

A hosptial needed a volunteer for nurses and doctors to learn doing ECGs/echocardiograms. It was cool to see my heart on a monitor so that was a plus too.

Dumpster Diving is the best.
You actually do that? Not that I wouldn't do it if I needed to, but I didn't picture that people dumpster dived just because they could. I never thought it was worth it tbh.

I never actually get anything regularly for free, just the occasional Milky Way bar or something along those lines when my friends chooses to go into a random shop and see a huge multipack for sale for 99p.

I've been going to the same coffee shop for so long the owner only charges me about 1 out of four visits. And he always gives me the largest size coffee, regardless of what I order. It's good to make friends with store owners : )

Oh wow that must have been brutal ranmaru O_O people literally go crazy for black friday shopping
It wasn't that bad. Walmart had this line... like a chain link line or something...

It was just very boring. :/

It's funny our health budget isn't even much at all.

All our tax goes on failed roadworks.
