Black beans and Tapatio will keep you full and is pretty tasty for less than a dollar a meal. Also you can eat it out of the can. That how I lived when I was homeless.
Learn to cook. Learn how to use fresh and pantry ingredients.
I can easily get by on $75 a week at a bougie produce market in the city (pasture eggs, free range chicken, etc). Or, I could get food delivery twice and spend more than that.
Piracy, some people buy 3 streaming subscriptions for 50€ a month just to watch one show.
Also depending on where you live you could take the supermarket advertisement magazines, they are free and if you live in an area where you can walk to your nearest stores it can actually save some money
I also know an old man who sells vapes, cigarettes and alcohol to kids (he couldn' save up enougth for a good retirement). You'd be suprised how much 12yo actually pay for a vape you can buyat every store for 10€. He once told me he get's his products from our cheap neigthbour country and only pays ⅓ of what he's charging.
