Free food hacks that ain't food bank
I want share something maybe help someone here. I working full time but still money always short before month end. So i start find free food WITHOUT going food bank line (some people feel shy for that, is ok either way no judgment). First thing check your grocery store "reduced" rack, usually near back or by bakery, they mark down bread, meat close to date, sometimes 50-70% off. Also some app like "Too Good To Go" or "Flashfood" show restaurants/stores giving big discount on food gonna throw away same day. Another one some bakery or restaurant literally throw good food end of night, ask manager nicely sometime they give you free instead of trash (some place say no tho, depend on manager mood lol). Also "ugly produce" box from farms, they sell cheap cuz fruit look weird shape but taste same. I do this almost 2 month now and save maybe $60-80 monthly, which big for me.
