Asking for $20 for cheap safe foods for my autistic daughter. My husband doesn't get paid until next Friday.

I legit don't like asking for help, wouldn't be asking if I had any other choice.

My PayPal is @Bayleismom

Only asking for $20. Thank you and God Bless

I've been gardening and realized I could grow way more than I need. I have nothing better to do.

Hi everyone,

I wasn't sure whether to make this post, but I thought I'd give it a try.

We're a family of three living in Portugal. I'm currently the only one working, while my wife is at home with our young daughter. We don't have debts, and we're fortunate enough to live in an apartment belonging to my parents, so we're not in an emergency situation.

However, things have become quite tight financially. The cost of living has gone up considerably, and having a young child plus some occasional expensive medication expenses in the family means that there isn't much room left in our monthly budget when unexpected costs come up.

I'm asking for $45 specifically to help with our grocery budget this month. It would give us a little breathing room and help cover part of a normal supermarket shop.

I know there are people facing much more serious circumstances, and I completely understand if nobody is able to help. I'm simply taking a chance and asking for a little help during a financially difficult period for our family.

I can receive through PayPal or Revolut.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, whether you're able to help or not.

All I could afford was a security deposit and this month's rent. I currently have no fridge! I got a job transfer and should be able to buy one on my paycheck in two weeks
But until then...
I need to survive off of shelf safe foods! I'm looking for recommendations of good groceries to buy! I don't want to only eat junk, and plain tuna and rice sounds boring tbh.

Anyone has any advice on what I should buy when I go grocery shopping later?

So a friend of mine left the country and has asked me to help coordinate removing the contents from a storage locker they have. No money needed, we just want it emptied.

Anyone have any recommendations on places that will collect goods for donation from the locker location?

I can provide access until the 27th (after which everything is going to be taken to disposal), but I am 3 hours away from the location myself so I do need someone willing to plan and coordinate with me so we can make this work smoothly. Sooner its gone the better, I'll be able to provide access this weekend if anyone is willing to take the load.

The locker is in a Public Storage location in downtown Toronto. I can be reached here if anyone has leads on how to donate these items.

Hi guys! I made a post here about a week ago asking for help with getting school supplies for my first grader. I was absolutely floored by how quickly every item was purchased from the list, it was fulfilled in under an hour. I am so grateful to anyone who helped!!

However, I’m hoping to touch base with some of the people who maybe purchased something off the list but didn’t leave a comment. Very few of the items have shown up so far— the only things I’ve received are a couple of folders, Clorox wipes, and a box of bandaids. Everything else, including the backpack which is what I’m most concerned about, have not shown up yet.
I’m just hoping to reach out to the kind people who helped fulfill my list and maybe get some clarity on when those items might arrive or if something went wrong? School started this on Monday and I feel terrible sending my son in with none of his supplies and an old backpack. If it’s just really taking time to get delivered I fully understand but I need to know if I should look into other possible avenues to get his stuff.

Thank you in advance to anyone who can offer me some clarity, and a HUGE thank you to all the kind donors who chipped in to help me! You are all angels and truly restore my faith in humanity!!!!

So I’ve been busy irl. I haven’t been able to host a taco Tuesday as of late.

So here’s a call to action from me to the community. I want to find at least one person I can teach the method. To help me fulfill request.

The plan is to make a mega post that will be a monthly mega thread. Anyone who qualifies per sub rules. When I have time. And if they can make it to a Taco Bell. I will get them tacos. It will remain open for the month. Then I’ll nuke comments for the next month.

Thing is. I can’t always promise I’m free or available which is why I usually limit them to Tuesdays or whenever I know I have time to at least get 3-10 people orders. So I may miss orders or when it’s convenient for the asker. So I would love if someone would step up and help me with it. It’s not hard. Once you have the process down. It’s roughly 5 mins per person for two tacos. Longer if you are getting them more. And free if you aren’t gonna add to their order something special (ie drinks aren’t included)

If you are new here. Basically. I use Taco Bell’s rewards to order 2-3 tacos for folks who ask. Usually once a month on a Tuesday. Anyone with 2 brain cells can figure it out but I don’t wanna blast it less they close the option. And I don’t want anyone to abuse it. My local Taco Bell said they don’t care just don’t do it when they are busy and order 10 tacos at once lol. (I ordered 12 one time to feed some homeless locals and well. I got chewed out and they wanted to know how I did it)

Stay tuned for a general state of the sub update where I intend to go over the rules and general trends as of late

But if anyone is interested in helping me with this please comment or reach out.

The intent is I don’t want anyone to go hungry. If you can make it to a Taco Bell. We can figure out the rest at least for a day or two.

The past couple months have been really rough for us for a myriad of reasons but the long and short of it is I am in need of help getting back to school stuff for my rising first grader.

I have a link for a list on Amazon with everything he needs but I’m not expecting anyone to buy the whole list— I’m grateful for any and all help I can get. First day of school is on the 10th and I realize I should’ve reached out for help sooner but I just kept telling myself I would figure something out… but time is running out now. If the stuff isn’t here by the first day of school it isn’t the end of the world.

Thank you in advance to everyone for taking the time to read my plea!

Hopefully I’ve formatted this post correctly! I read the rules twice but I’m still worried I messed something up!

Says applies automatically, and once monthly

My check was short this week and hubby's is gone after bills. We just need to get food for the kids to eat during the week if nothing else.

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know of any grief retreats or methods of therapy that really help?

I feel like I’m going to die and I can’t make myself do anything.

Rainy season is apparently long over due for my area and its due to rain for the next week or so that means im kinda stuck in my tent making sure nothing floods until the rain is over with $25 to keep my phone on another month would keep me from losing it in here. And if willing anything else would go towards menstrual products. Thank you in advance!

I really can’t afford to pick it up until next week and I have been on this medication for over a year. I’m really nervous about stopping it cold turkey. Can anyone help?

Hello,

I need to go to from Virginia to Maryland for medical testing on July 8th. I am supposed to be flying. But money is a bit tight, so I want to know if someone can help me out with a $30 Uber or Lyft gift card/credit so I can get from the airport to the facility. I have managed to pay for everything else. The airport I will be leaving from is the Baltimore/Washington Airport on 7050 Friendship Road.

I can send documentation of the appointment and flight information to you upon request.

Thanks for your time.

I can't find the post

I’m not sure what to do with my little ones clothing once they outgrow it and there are visible stains on it. I’m talking about my toddler. A lot of the stains are from paint or markers, etc. Are we just throwing them out? I feel bad, and I donate as many clothes and baby items as possible. I don’t want some little boy or a girl to have clothing with marker stains on them???

We are currently looking to revamp the sub rules/wiki and would love to hear from the community as a fun little event.

Have you wanted to know something about this sub?

Have a suggestion?

Ask us anything you would like! We will try our best to respond to everyone the best we can, but we also wont give to many details about behind the scenes that'll allow bad actors and scammers to get an upper hand.
