Live in a rural town. No degree, but I'm excellent at math. I got a job teaching GED math classes which requires a degree, it was supposed to be temporary and I was supposed to give my boss a refresher on math so they could eventually let me go. My boss knows I have a daughter to support by myself as a dad and have really turned my life around and my boss already knows how to do math. Boss still always tells her supervisor she just can't get the hang of alegebra so I can keep my job. My boss is cool.

When I was younger degrees weren’t always a requirement. There are many people that know their stuff or perhaps more importantly can learn it without a degree. I know someone that has been doing IT for a large company that has a that has an English degree and another without a degree. Now some degrees are important as they are part of licensing like being an MD or an Engineer but there are some careers that what you learn in school won’t have much to do with what you will be doing on the job and therefore a persons ability to adapt and learn on the job is more important than a degree.

I took a regular old stats class in high school. My college saw it on my transcript, thought it was AP, and checked it off of my degree requirements. My graduate school saw it on my undergrad transcript and checked it off on my requirements. I haven't taken a math class since I was 17 and I'm not saying a word.

Not current, but a good story.
Three years ago I worked at a grocery store as a cashier and they had a system where every dollar spent was put towards a point system to give you discounts on their gas. You also got discounts on specific items with the card.
They tracked our employee cards, so we couldnt cop some free fuel points. But my mom's old phone number was still linked to an account, so whenever a customer didnt have an account (which was free) I would just type in my mom's old # and say it was the store code to give them discounts. I paid next to nothing for gas while I worked there and never got caught.

Even better. My boss was a contractor. He'd buy home Depot gift cards when the store was running 20 percent off gift cards sales. Of course he used his phone number and bought thousands of dollars worth of gift cards. Then he'd buy stuff at home Depot that was on sale and basically be getting 40 percent off plus all the gas points which he gave the number to all the employees because there were so many points he couldn't use them all!

My great student card heist. I live in South Australia, so YMMV elsewhere. Basically, the cost to apply for a uni degree here is about $60. So you apply for a degree, enrol in topics, get your "full time student" ID card, then unenrol in all your topics. If you unenrol before the census date (which is usually a month or so after uni starts), you don't get charged for the course - but they don't ask for your student card back!
That means that you get to claim all the sweet sweet student discounts, the best of which being on public transport. If, like me, you get public transport twice a day, five days a week, it costs you almost $40. Having a student card halves the cost. So you basically make up for the $60 you paid to apply for uni in 3 weeks of catching the train.

This was like 7 or 8 years ago when a lot of towns in the UK didn't have Dominoes Pizza, before Papa Johns was a thing here and you were lucky if there was a Pizza Hut delivery. Most people only had access to pizza from little, dirty kebab shops and like their kebabs, the pizzas were best eaten when drunk.
Well a Dominoes opened up in my hometown not long after I finished university and moved back home. Because it was so expensive compared to the cheap, albeit bad, pizza you could already buy, they did loads of really good coupon and online deals.
They had this one code, PIZFIFTY, that was 50% of £50. A large pizza with two sides was about £25 anyway, so you could basically get twice the amount of food. It made it feel like you weren't getting totally ripped off.
That code didn't stay on the menus for long though, and it was replaced with various other codes that would change every month. The thing is though, the PIZFIFTY code still worked online. And it stayed active until this year. I was a little heartbroken when I entered it and got an invalid code error.

Standard size ice cream, was 1.30, while "big ice cream", double the standard size, was 3.30.
The "standard" was really small, so everybody bought the "big" one. But I did the math, so I'd ask for two standard ones, receive an extra waffle, and save 0.70.
I was 11. As I watched the line of adults all buying "big ice cream", I realised that not all adults were smart. Nobody repeated my trick.

I use the Starbucks mobile ordering system to order a grande drink, but then select the option to have it put in a venti cup. 4/5 times I get a full venti drink.
Edit: grande: medium. Venti: large. Yea, I hate using those words too. They offer that option so you can have room to add sugar or cream. And yea, I know it's not a full venti drink, but it's always more than a grande. My cousin is a barista and she says they don't really care if they give more on iced coffee or hot coffee because yea, it's still $5 for .50 coffee. Anyway, it's the little things that make my day.

My Dad is a recycling man for my town. And man did he ever do this well.
So with McDonalds you know how you can get a stamp card and a sticker on every cup? When you fill out the stamp card you get a free drink.
Well whenever he goes to pick up someone's recycling sometimes a person left there mcdonalds drink cup in there. And the sticker is still on it. So he takes the sticker and puts it on his stamp card.
Lets say he has over 50+ stamp cards for a free drink by doing this. And counting. He is exploiting that one that is for sure. Free coffee for life.

A while back they got new keypads at my job that wouldn't let you punch in if you showed up late for work. It would just say, "too late, see a manager" and then you'd have to go through the awkward process of telling your manager, having them follow you up the stairs, and they had to sign a late slip for you. One day I figured out that if I put a nine at the end of my four digit key (because it doesn't overwrite the last key) I could punch in late without being penalized. Naturally I exploited this loophole whenever I was too late for work. Eventually they caught on to what I was doing and had a manager talk to me and tell me that if I showed up late three more times (three strikes) I'd be fired.
I think the only reason they didn't fire me then and there was because they didn't want to admit there was a loop-hole in the system.

I keep being offered sign up bonuses for starting new bank accounts. I've switched twice now in a year, moving my direct deposit each time and have made $800 in incentives.

Thought about upping my Gamers Club Unlocked membership at best buy when I realized when I initially bought the membership two years ago best buy quite literally had a glitch in their system and accidentally gave me an additional two years for free
It's not super fancy or anything, but hey it means 20% off games without paying another 30 bucks, so that's a win in my book.
Blackmoon The Dragon 4 hours ago (edited)
20% off games while paying 30 bucks in this economy means you buy 5 games in 2 years and get the price back, so if you're buying more than 5 games its amazing, if its less than that though you aren't really getting anyhing back. I guess its great for gifting if you have friends that want certain games. the only thing that would make it absolutely amazing is if you were buying consoles.

Two school glitches I used to "exploit" (if by "exploit" you really mean "use because they handed it to you."):
In middle school I quit going to a class and started to help out/hang out with a teacher I got along with way better than the teacher I was supposed to be with. They still gave me an A on the next report card. For the class I hadn't even been in for weeks. They gave me another A on all subsequent report cards. For the class I literally was never part of again. To this day I have no clue how that happened, but I was sure glad it did.
In high school, my school had 2 lunch hours, and allowed students to program their schedules each year. Thanks to their not requiring a full compliment of credits to graduate, a particularly motivated student could complete their high school in 3 years, or have any specific free hour each of their 4 years if they wanted. Guess who got first lunch *and* second lunch? This hobbit, that's who. Only did that one year, and man was my guidance counselor not pleased at my figuring it out. Kinda mad I didn't figure that out for each year, but oh well. I heard they added a third lunch hour the year after I graduated.

Not currently, but a year ago when I was in college:
The meal plan, in addition to letting you into the cafeterias a certain number of times per week, included something called "dining dollars" which are just regular dollars except you can only use them at college-approved restaurants or fast food chains on campus. The meal plan comes with a fixed number of dining dollars per semester ($200 or $300 or something depending on your plan) but you can add extra if you want to go to the college restaurants more. They have a promotion where if you spend $20 or more of real money on dining dollars, you get 10% extra, so for example if you pay $100, you'd get $110 to spend on food. The college actually earns a profit on this because items at their convenience stores are marked up by more than 10% of market value, so it increases their revenue by more than the cost of giving out that 10% bonus.
Except I broke this system.
I was the treasurer of a club, and noticed in some obscure bylaw that if you filled out some form at the student affairs office, it would authorize your organization to hold fundraisers where people can spend their dining dollars on your club's merchandise, such as soccer team t-shirts or a bake sale or whatever. Usually when you have a fundraiser, you want people _outside_ of your club to buy your stuff, because otherwise it'd just be like charging ridiculous club dues. But I figured out we could charge $10 per cookie, have all the club members buy 20 cookies (from ourselves) using dining dollars, take the $6000 check out of the club account, then re-distribute the money to everyone so that they could buy more dining dollars. BUT you get 10% extra each time you repeat this, so basically it was like being given $600 for free by the dining services department for doing absolutely nothing productive.
Also we got to eat a lot of cookies.

I am due to graduate from university soon. When my student card expired recently, I changed my graduation date to December 2022 before getting an updated card. Hello, 6 more years of cheap movie tickets/public transport concessions.
Edit:
The guy who issued the card and took my photo was pretty skeptical of the date I had entered haha.
When I told him I was in a very long dual degree, he smirked and said he was "happy with that explanation". I think he was just doing me a solid by turning a blind eye #topbloke
Technically, I *am* enrolled in a degree that takes 5.5-6 years... I just skipped the part where I'm 6 years into it hehe 😇.

With the *subway app* you can get discounts on subs. If you delete the app you can try again and get a different (better) discount. It ain't much, but it is to a 19 year old student.
EDIT: it's the Subway Netherlands app for everybody asking. So that might be why the Americans don't see the "footlong for 5 euro" discount. I don't know what the deal is with subway in other countries.

In most states, children/teens have to take a series of specific standardized tests to determine the effectiveness of the school and progress of the student themselves. These aren't the APs, SAT, ACT, or TOEFLs. These are state administered and in my state when we had to take it, people found out a "glitch" so to speak.
So the way the test works was that the questions got harder the more you got right. Also it was not timed so you could pause the test. **However**, whenever you paused and then came back you got a different question. This question may have been easier for you to do if you were the student.
So basically, a room of 30 or maybe more students would get a question they would get stumped on. Then pause the test and resume seconds after to receive another question that they knew how to do. Of course, you could do this as many times as you wanted to during the test. It was L I V I D! !
I scored 99% better in the whole state because of this. . . **NOTE** the new question would be in the same difficulty "set" as the one you couldn't do. The new question you got just might have been faster to do or easier to comprehend. So it was kind of a half **glitch** and you still had to be a little smart. (#_#( woo^oo^o
TL:DR> Glitch on test allows you to switch out a hard question for something you could easily comprehend or do faster. I did 99% better than the rest of the students in the test in whole state.

Used to work in the cinema so I know al the tricks.
Order tickets online, pay the extra convenience fee. Then go to the registers and tell them you left your credit card at home and you wish to pay in cash. The cashier will cancel your order but keep your seats so tou can pay regular price but still have designated seats.
If you bring food in plastic bag (like a burger you just bought in the bag they gave you) they ushers will tell you to put it aside for safekeeping, but if you put it in your own bag (like the one you take to school. Sorry I don't know all the words in english I think it's the same word) they can't tell you to open it
If you feel extra sneaky and have lots of spare time you can watch a movie and hide in the bathroom for 20 minutes until the next showing is starting, then just go to a different room to watch another movie for free.

I never actually did this, and I'm told it doesn't work any more, but I saw people do it.
Years ago, at a certain major university, the administration decided to put all your services on one card: everything from the library to photocopiers, to exams to food services: a fine idea.
There was just one tiny problem...
The code somehow presumed that everyone would, at some point, put a balance on the card. They did not account for the possibility of someone showing up in certain places with a zero balance.
One set of such places involved anywhere that served university-issue food.
In short, as long as you kept a zero balance on your card, you ate for free.
You'd get rung in at the cash, and present your card; it would scan but *not* show the cashier the balance (because of privacy regulations); it would only say 'OK' or 'not OK'. If you had a balance that was not sufficient, or negative (e.g. in the case of library fines) it would compare X to Y and it wouldn't go through; if your balance was zero, it went through every time, so somebody didn't set up that binary properly.
This went on for YEARS. In certain faculties and departments -- and it's easy to imagine which ones -- it was legendary. It got to the point, I'm told, that they were actually holding meetings and disciplining people who used it too much because they were so concerned about keeping it going.
AFAIK, it only ended because the university tore out all of their old cafeterias and put new ones in -- presumably because the old ones were losing staggering amounts of money -- complete with a new payment system that did not apparently have this issue.
I found out towards the end of my time there, but I didn't feel too upset because I lived off-campus and only ate within the university inside my college, which was on a different system and had way, WAY better food. Someone literally said, "How would you like a free lunch?", showed me his 0.00 balance on a nearby machine, and then bought me lunch.
Now that I'm more involved in and aware of university operations, I'm actually kind of pissed about this -- like all free lunches, it wasn't -- but it remains, undeniably, a first-class hack.
(Personally, my own view is that student nutrition is a huge problem, and we should be giving food away to students, but the legal problems surrounding that are truly prohibitive.)
**TL;DR: students at a major university who kept a null balance on their student cards had an all-you-can-eat buffet on tap.**.

I've been getting free movie tickets for a while now. Fandango has an app that you can buy your tickets on and it becomes a QR code thingy and the person at the booth just scans it and you go in. If you screenshot it and show the picture the QR code doesn't work but if your local theater has a nervous teenager working the booth and a long line of customers, they're not gonna make a big deal and just assume the computer is being weird and let you in. When you get inside the theater, pull out your phone and return the tickets through the app, it will let you because it sees that its QR code was never scanned. I've bought movie tickets for my friends a bunch of times, and then they pay me back for spotting them. So free tickets and profit.

I'm enjoying my text-based notifications without spammy e-mails, and while I dutifully reported the bug I certainly haven't pressed to have it fixed.
I also briefly enjoyed a period when HR's emergency closure alert system decided that it wasn't going to call me on the phone at 6 in the morning even if I wasn't scheduled to come in for that shift, opting to text me instead. This wasn't how it was supposed to work, everybody was supposed to get a call and then some people would get additional texts. I think the library just really likes to text me, and I'm sure not complaining!

I don't know how I did it, but I went 3 years without getting fined for not having health insurance.

Honestly, public assistance programs are where it's at. Even if you are housed & have employment, there are things you are entitled to as a citizen that the government still does pay for (despite what our current administration implies) & they help out so much. You don't have to struggle as much as you think you do. There's stuff out there that can help you reduce the pressure!

Multiple members of family are police officers. When they say "Do you know why I pulled you over?" I say, "I was speeding, I know better, my -------- is a an officer"
85% of the time the response is "Slow it down and have a good day"
I know it's bad but those tickets are expensive.

Up until Feb this year I was with Virgin for my internet and O2 for my mobile. As they merged they had a deal called Volt. So if you were a customer of both companies you got certain benefits. On the internet, I got a speed bump to next tier which doubled the speed to 200Mbps and on my phone contract I got double data and roaming in 75 countries. When I left Virgin, this didn't cancel the benefits on my phone contract until a couple of weeks ago when I changed my phone tariff to a much better value one.

Most restaurants around here have corkage fees. Not expensive but it offsets their service and potentially lost profits from selling you a bottle of their wines. Bringing your own bottle is great way to share that special bottle I’ve been saving or enjoy my wine being served by someone else with food and venue not my own. I find that if you frequent that restaurant and/or offer the wait staff or sommelier a glass they waive the corkage fee. I still tip on the corkage fee that wasn’t included just as I do on a discount or comped item. ( for those who don’t have tipping, in the US, tipping is a silly custom whereby customers are usually expected to add 15-20% to the bill as compensation for the wait staff for their service.)
