Tips on survival in the depression. A frustrated look at the economy. What are we to do.

These are hard times were living in. The economy is going down faster than a stripper at a bachelor party.

We all have this wonderful duty as americans we  perform called work, so we can pay taxes and barely survive. In these hard times here are some ways to cut corners.

  1. Call your favorite restaurant of choice, and complain.  My food was cold, my hamburger tasted like it was made last night, my significant other is sick now.  Managers will gladly give you a refund, or a voucher for all the free food you complain about. Of course, its not honest. However, look around. Do you see honesty in six dollars for a gallon of milk? This works with corporations as well. Buy a frozen entree and write a letter to the company and tell them it was horrible. A good friend of mine had recieved 100 free pizzas from Pizza Hut, on a bogus claim a party of children were sick. Be creative!
  2. Stock up! When you go to a fast food place, grab handfuls of sugar, salt, pepper, napkins,and plastic sporks. Whatever is available.  Plastic utensils will also save on washing dishes, dish soap, and water! Big money saver here folks.
  3. Take the family to your local grocery store on free sample day. Go crazy. Eat as much as you possibly can. Hit the bulk isle and enjoy some delicious almonds, candy, or chocolate.
  4. Eat the cheapest most unhealthy things you can find in the store. Loaded with preservatives, junk and poison, so we can die at a young age. The benefit of this? We dont have to worry about money!
  5. Tough times call for tough measures. The people in prison have it so much more easy. All the meals are provided, free personal care items courtesy of Mr. Bob barker. Formal Price is right host. They even have clean sheets, video games, and cable. So? what are you waiting for? Go commit a crime.
