Soup Kitchens, Food Pantries, Shelters etc. They in turn provide that food to the individuals that need it.

>> No.10572299

Go to a 24 hour Wal Mart a couple towns over, at like 2-5 AM, when the only people there are stockers and 1 or 2 cashiers.

Load up your cart with whatever. Go to self checkout and bag it all up like you're going to pay for it. But here's the Shyamalan twist--you don't pay. You just grab the bags and get the fuck out of there, never to return to that particular Wal Mart again.

Hey, I didn't say it would be guilt-free.

Sure. If you're in the US, you apply for SNAP (food stamps). In this country, food is a right (but shelter isn't, go figure). You can't buy hot food with it, but as long as you have access to fire you can rectify that.

This is one of the horrifying things.

It's very hard to get assistance finding a job or shelter, but you can get a very reasonable amount of food almost no questions asked. It varies based on where you live to. The biggest issue is getting to and from work. You're almost required to own and operate a vehicle and be available for all shifts at minimum wage in the bible-belt. Should something happen to you, should you fall into debt, you can get stuck there.

This plus churches. You can sometimes get lucky with craigslist and people will offer up some free food they no longer want (you can also make a post begging and sometimes people will let you have crap from their pantry).

Costco and Trader Joe's have free samples, if that counts.

How has no one said dumpster diving?
Go to the bins of a large supermarket, look for stuff that is packaged and almost within date. If you use common sense (eg avoid meat and milk) then it's perfectly safe, and really not gross as the food was in a package the whole time.

I live near Abbotsford Convent just outside Melbourne in Australia. At least once a week I'll go to this little place at the convent called Lentil as Anything. They let you pay whatever you want for the all-you-can-eat buffet. I don't really understand how they stay open, but I'm always down for a cheap feed.

Too true though a few of the richer cities are starting to get non cucked up homeless off the streets quicker. Emergency shelters are a money pit and consume too many police man hours. Also. Emergency room visits,crimes that wouldn't have happened if the person wasn't homeless like public drinking-not being drunk but having a beer after work. It's proving a lot cheaper to put people in a Tokyo style efficiency. But it can be pretty brutal.

Saw an articule on some feminist newsite about a woman who signed up to a bunch of dating sites so she could get free meals when guys took her out. It was her way of charging the patriarchy. Her biggest accomplishments were 6 dates in five days, and one guy who spent $1100 on her. (including the champagne)

I don't know if they still do it, but the hari krishnas used to run an ad in the uni paper where I went to school offering free vegetarian all you can eat lunches. I used to go several times/week and there was no prosletizing, just them cooking and serving food. The food was delicious, I might add. Their hook was they invite you to a saturday night feast where they pull out all the stops to try to convert you, but you didn't have to go to that.
