Low-Cost City Living Guide:

1. Wake up early and randomly go to nearby All Seasons Hotel for a free breakfast; if caught, they usually just ask you to leave.
2. Go to nearby Kudi or Luckin, Starbucks and ask if they have any canceled orders for coffee; ask several places, and you'll usually find some.
3. After the mall opens, randomly visit dining spots to check in for rewards or sample foods; over time, it adds up. You can also get full. It's recommended to go to major commercial districts in the city center.
4. In the evening, go to izakayas or Japanese restaurants and ask for fish bones or fish heads. At tea restaurants or roast goose shops, ask for duck butt or duck head. They usually will give them, providing protein.
5. Pick some leafy greens or winter melon from the vegetable stalls when they close. Sometimes, with luck, you might even find fruit.
6. If you can't find fruit, check the trash bins at Fruit World; they often have bananas.
7. You can ask Hema to give you durian shells to boil into soup; it's very nutritious.
