Hack No. 4: The Discounted Chow

This is a great hack for people who are still on a tight budget or don’t have enough money to afford a more expensive meal in town.

All you have to do is ask what they have in store for “Discounted Chow”. It could be burgers, it could be fries or even full meals.

What does “Discounted Chow” mean? Well, it means that the food was made but not sold, which makes it sit around. But don’t worry, it’s not spoiled, they’re perfectly fine!

A while ago, I used to pay $1.25 for a Big Mac, $0.50 for a serving of fries, and $0.75 for a Quarter Pounder. Times have definitely changed, but this hack is still worth it!
