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?

Beer and pizzaAnother time I was skint as a student my mate suggested we went for a job interview with Compuserve (Yes, I'm that old) as they gave out free beer and pizza as they tried to drum up enough poor students to get them to work in the call centre. After our beer and pizza we would have a chat with the staff and be given an "Internet quiz" to see if we knew enough about the internet. The questions were quite stupid such as "What is a newsgroup? Please give an example." to which we game examples such as alt.sex.animals and alt.religeon.satanism. Oddly enough we didn't get the job but we did try again a few months later for more beer and pizza. And no, they didn't check to see if we'd been last time.
