RE: Are We Still A Community?

in #steemit6 years ago

Hi man! That really sucks! To lift your mood,my mate years ago got evicted and so him and some mechanic mates decided to take apart an abandoned car that was in the carpark and rebuilt it in the lounge just before eviction day 😂 that must have taken time to sort out! You might think im taking the piss,but did you think about going bin diving and not spending money for food?

Sort:  

I tend just to fast when I cannot afford food for myself, or when I feel the money could be better spent elsewhere. It's quite shocking how long one can go without food, and more shocking still how better they can feel because of it.

What's even more shocking is that most supermarket bins round the back are open and brimming with fresh food from that day, waiting for people like yourself to come and eat like kings! Man Waitrose bins were never locked! And then you call up your friends if you dont have a car (you willfill a boot of a car easy) and they too can start saving some money and giving a good "fuck you" to the system!
For its firstly very luxious food that I wont ever be able to afford, then its about how they tell us what life is and if we aint got money we go hungry when there IS so much edible food everyday behind every suoermarket. I hate the system, and this act of going to get free food is a big win to the people. It does change life situations, because it changed mine (although i didnt think about it whilst living in the system) and its changed many peoples lives that i have taken with me to the bins :)

All the expensive stuff that people cant afford is chucked out. All you need is a tiny bit of food safety savvy :)

I can feel the sweet nostalgia you were bathing in as you wrote this. You are a fucking legend.

I didn't know about this and I wonder if I could acquire my dog top quality food that still hasn't gone bad this way. I might eat like shit when I have to, but I feed him the best only as I feel it would be immoral of me to feed him shit I know is poison. ANd because he is a big dog, it can be expensive, so I would save a considerable amount per week. Was there ever organic meat or vegetables thrown out that were still fresh?

Haha 😂
My dogs are eating fresh meats all the time! Plus I dont like fish so they get all the salmon lol. Theres always salmon in the bins. Dogs can eat even the most rotton meats as they have the correct acids in stomach to break it down,but man seriously 80% of food in the bins is perfectly fine, if you have a chest freezer it will be full after a few trips to a good supermarket..

I will definitely be investigating this, and my brother also has a large dog so we could both end up saving a decent amount a month. Thanks a ton, mate.
