>> No.6436559

$90/month for food sounds good

i usually spend like $20 or even less. you can never go hungry if a) youre a student and go to extracurricular/group meetings where they serve food, b) know the local food shelters and free meals where all the homeless eat and/or c) dumpster dive.

lots of bakeries or bagel places are also OK with giving away their stuff at the end of the day

geos are more iconic, distinct design of shoe, however i think ramones, particularly the canvas ones are a more versatile shoe in terms of how frequently they can look good. they are a bit more conservative/traditional in terms of shape/design/details.

yeah. alright. i agree. even though ramones doesn't have a very original design, the sole alone makes it give a whole other impression compared to similar sneakers.
i also agree with geos done wrong can look horrible. geos look best after some wear. since the hype has gotten to so many there's a lot of pics out there of people with their new geos. and sometimes it's really off and looks like shit. i personally prefer all black (with black soles as well) or all whites geos.

swoosh and crust dunks

low tier:
geos
ramones his and lows

Hello OP,
That's a nice choice, I myself often buy designer clothes and struggle with the money left to buy my foodies. I used to have 5€ per week, that's like $6.5
Here are some tips that worked :
>Buy huge quantities of discount pasta, these are cheap as hell and will give you energy and it's easy to cook them with some water and salt.
>Rice is also cheap as hell, I suggest you to go to asian import stores, where you can find great quantities for cheap and sometimes you can even negociate prices.
>Try to eat at your friend's houses as often as you can, but don't try to seem poor or needy, because it's not effay at all
>Steal fruits in front of shops and put them in your pockets, if you bought your jacket from the right brand, the pockets should be large enough to store a book, a sandwich, or a few apples
>don't neglect apples, if you have some money left, buy one
>if there are some gardens or fields where you live, you can often steal fruits from there, and no one will give a shit
>try to get a gf that has money and eat her food, you can get an ugly and fat one, as these are likely to have more food at home
>if you find yourself not eating for a few days, it's okay ! Remember that eating isn't effay and that looking pale and thin is awesome
>coffee can make you feel less hungry

Good luck ! And don't forget to post your fit when you receive them !

"I always thought that you were screwed if you paid by "gift" and you got scammed.

It's not true though and I wish I had of known this little trick in the past.

It definitely works, because after I thought I was scammed a few weeks ago I did just this and within a couple of business days I had my money back!

For reference my funding source in the transaction was my credit card, which means I had cover from my bank, but this trick should work no martter what.

"Once you have sent the payment and then realize that you have been scammed, click the transaction details tab.

Click on Dispute and then make a claim.

Now you click on : UNAUTHORIZED CLAIM (What this means is that money has been withdrawed from your account without permisson)

Now there is an explanation box suggesting why this may have happened.

Click submit.

Paypal says give it 10 days to refund your money. But they give your funds back today.

Your account will still be verified but now limited. you have to change you Password and security questions to un-limit it."

Reddit can't help me, so maybe you guys can.

Need tailoring help!
So I have a sewing machine and all the things I need to start practicing on some old shirts. Anybody have any experience with this? I've read all the guides on Reddit, as well as browsed a few videos on Youtube, but I'd like some first-hand accounts of trying this.
How long did it take you to master this skill? Any specific advice you can give me? Thanks.
