Things you've done when you've had no money.Apart from the usual survival rations of beans, white bread and Doll Noodles™, we've all done things to compensate for having no money. Personally I spent 6 months barefoot to save on the cost of shoes. What pathetic things have you done when the cash ran out?

while at universityi never had enough money for cigarettes. however, i found out that if you bought a pack of fags from a shop and later discovered that the pack was damaged (and so the contents would naturally be less than satisfactory), you could take your 'dodgy' pack of fags back, and get a refund, having smoked 1 or 2. this led to the odd week of marching all over london, going into different newsagents to buy cigarettes, then returning 1/2 an hour later to demand a refund. normally a pin through the underside of the packet does the trick, as you can then claim that they're stale.
