Even if your options are limited and your pockets are turned inside out, you can still rustle up some grub. Consider several ways to feed yourself without begging or stealing.

Step 1: Get coupons
Find or ask for free meal coupons from Mcdonald's, the Cracker Barrel, and other restaurants. Look for scratch-off cards and contests to win free food.

Step 2: Get a free restaurant meal
Search for local restaurants that offer free birthday meals -- usually supplied only if you are accompanied by a friend who buys their own. Some honor veterans, women, and seniors on certain days of the year.

Step 3: Go to happy hour
Hang out at bars during happy hour. Buy a cheap drink for the opportunity to feast for a couple hours.

Step 4: Crash events
Crash wedding receptions, wakes, church functions, company picnics, and public promotional giveaways. Tour major food stores on weekends for promotional sample displays that might comprise a full meal when you're done.

Tip
Stick around a friend's home until you overstay your welcome or clean out their pantry.

Step 5: Volunteer
Volunteer to help a charitable organization and you can usually get fed, because there is no other pay. Donate blood, as well, for which you will be given sustenance afterward, and still feel good about what you've done to help others.

Step 6: Scavenge, hunt
Scavenge in the woods for wild edibles that you can take home, and cook. Hunt for game if you don't mind cleaning and cooking it.

Step 7: Grow a garden
Grow your own garden to get quality, fresh, and safe food at little cost.
