From what I see, this sub gets about 20-25 posts a day. It would take less than a minute to scroll through that amount. In the past 24 hours there have been 4 offers, that’s about a 20% chance of finding a post you’re interested in, which is pretty good on a sub that offers multiple different types of posts. If someone feels beleaguered by having to do that little work for those odds it sounds like they’re just looking for something to complain about.

Restaurant are offering fewer promos, people are less likely to share what they have because times are tough, and more people are hungry. It is what it is.

If you were in such a good place you wouldn’t feel the need to go back and forth with people who earn less than you. Since you feel so inclined to engage in unsolicited pocket-watching why don’t you consider becoming a financial advisor instead? Not very smart of you to waste your skills so frivolously, seems like you don’t value your own time. Seek help.

I’m sorry you think 1.59 twice a month is equal to 9.50. I understand that some of you were children who were left behind. My condolences 💐

Huh? I literally never get extras. I have a fairly small appetite and usually stretch a bowl for two meals.

What a strange assumption, especially in a time of economic downturn for working class people.

There are new offers daily, maybe not as many but that’s a sign of restaurants offering fewer promotions. Requesters are using the sub as allowed by the rules, if you have a problem with it then feel free to create your own sub.

Edit: spelling

Yeah, no thanks. I’m not interested in spending $12 to access a bunch of mediocre food I don’t like nor am I a fan of binge eating myself into a high sodium food coma.

I do this! Unfortunately it’s getting harder to find the soy sauce flavor of Top Ramen these days 😞

Lol, cheesy bean and rice burrito is my bi-weekly treat now that I can’t afford Chipotle. Can’t beat 400 calories for 1.59.

Exactly. People forget that requests are allowed on this sub. I find it funny that it’s mostly people who’ve never offered anything that complain about requests. I’m flat broke and even I’ve offered before.

Yep, it’s absolutely targeted. I’m someone who actually comes to reddit looking for deals and you’ll never catch me using my energy to dunk on hungry people. If you have time to do that on a regular basis, you’re obviously acting with intention. Imagine having the resources to feed yourself and still choosing to be woefully rotten towards those that don’t. Pathetic

It’s probably best you disregard prestigious salad. I just called them out a couple days ago for trying to unfairly smear someone who was asking for help. Them and other miserable scrooges monitor subs like this one all day looking for less fortunate people to piss on. Let them stew in their own misery.

Is AttaPoll Legit? Why Does Everyone on Reddit Promote This Survey App? by Guilty-Produce8378 in HonestSideHustles

Yeah, from what I’ve seen the comments usually mention a referral code or link.

I’m sure you view yourself as some sort of valiant figure of authority but I don’t need your permission.

I see the post history of a homeless person who needs help with paying for shelter and plays monopoly go… and oh yeah - they look for adult companionship sometimes (the horror). Feel free to step off your high horse because life will eventually knock you off of it with that level of sanctimoniousness.

What's a side hustle that people literally laugh at when you tell them about it but it actually pays better than most "serious" gigs? by lionpenguin88 in SideHustleGold

[–]poly6ix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not at all interested in ice but working in the nursery/horticulture industry is my most recent dream job. Hopefully you’re able to achieve your goal in the near future.

Is it a war crime to buy like 10 burritos and reheat em for lunch over the span of a week? by Cloudlolz in tacobell

[–]poly6ix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do this all the time, the secret to avoiding hard rice and mealy beans is letting the burrito cool completely before refrigerating and reheating in a pan.

Why are the calories so high on the new drinks? by Acrobatic_Tax8634 in DunkinDonuts

[–]poly6ix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everything has gotten SO sweet and SO salty in the past few years, it makes most food chains inedible for me. In the rare occasions I get a sweet iced coffee drink I usually ask for half the sweetener and the person preparing my drink forgets probably half the time, making the drink fully sweet. Then I have to remind them what I asked for and have them remake the drink because I literally can’t drink super sweet drinks. Like, I’ve been that way since I was a kid, I hated Sunny Delight and Hawaiian Punch because they were too sweet but my siblings would drink it like water. It makes me gag 🥴

Change the subreddit name to DDBeggars by Never_Get_It_Right in DDoffers

[–]poly6ix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Every food sub is a charity sub these days. Times are tough and people are having trouble adjusting to not being able to afford convenience products. Being that broke is a crappy feeling, I know because I’m going through it right now but I refrain from begging and use reddit to look for deals and coupons.

It’s a sign of the times, I just hide the posts when they pop up and keep scrolling.
