Cut out my brain and sold it to a shady restaurant

They only offered two bucks for it and since I no longer had a brain I was too dumb to realize I should've asked for more money

Rolling quarters

I used to love rolling coins when I was a kid. I collected tons of change. That stuff adds up. I remember taking all those coins to the bank and using that money to buy the 1st Pokemon movie on VHS.

Quit drinking, for a little while at least.

Currently doing something like this. Stopped going to the ABC store and told my wife to stop buying me wine when she goes grocery shopping. She still buys me the wine anyway....

I timed my bowel system to shit at work.

It saves money on toilet paper AND I'm getting paid to poop!

For a long time I just bought the shittiest malt liquor if I wanted to drink. King Cobra etc.

Used to have very strict self imposed allowances for month to month spending - many times I would just eat ramen/apples for a few days for accidentally spending too much early in the month.

Go to club meetings just to eat pizza


I used to do that back in college. Well, with seminars, but it was the same deal.

Only time I did this was when I had a water bill. Less flushing to be had.

Once at my first job, I remembered I didn't have any toilet paper at home but was too lazy to go buy some. My solution was to take a roll home from work.

Made a budget

Making a budget is desperate?

If I had my way, I would still do this at least once a week. Unfortunately my wife cares too much about my health and won't let me go a day eating little scrapes like that.
