I don’t have a penny, the next food bank appointment is 30th Sept. I don’t know how I’ll last that long. Any faster ways?

    Maybe not what most people would suggest, but for an occasional day, don’t you have any friends who you remember need a small favour (say installing some software on a computer, or painting a wall), and tell them that you’ll come over and help if they invite you over for dinner?

    Also, maybe if you’re country-specific, it will be easier to give suggestions

      Sadly, a lot of people lost a good chunk of their friend groups during COVID. I consider myself a super social person but I have only a handful of people I could really ask for a favor. Someone who’s more anti-social would seriously struggle. A lot of the connections and social interactions we had on the periphery of our lives were severed entirely; never returning.
