U/big_buy8203 ran a contest and by some miracle I won. this was a bit ago but I realized I never made a post. thanks again!

To sum things up I'm having a really shitty day and am at my wit's end. I'm super stressed, overwhelmed and TBH Im just having a REALLY rough day. I'll try and make this as short and sweet as possible, but of course want to explain what's going on so my request makes sense. As I do feel a bit guilty/embarrassed (and a bit vulnerable tbh) to make this request esp cos my reasoning is a bit personal ect but honestly I'm just stressed out, am stretched super thin and am hungry.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to stretch my SNAP/Food stamps far enough to last me the entire month. I budget and only buy stuff on sale ect, budget pretty ect. Truly thought I'd be able to make it till when I recieve my next month's benefits (midnight on the 9th/10th), but I just went to make what I thought was my last box of Mac and cheese...only to realize I somehow miscounted or stupidly absent-mindedly forgot I already finished my last box of Mac and cheese late last night and finished my bread (for Pb&J's) early yesterday morning/late the night before.

Ive also just been really sad, down in the dumps and have cried a lot today. As whats been heavily weighing on me is I lost my mom a couple years ago. I still cry a lot - sometimes almost daily. But the ebb and flow of grief can sometimes be REALLY exhuasting. It's all just been weighing on me a lot today. And I'm just having one of those rough days. But today also would have been my fur baby in heavens birthday, so that's been really tough and also super sad for me and another cause for lots of tears today.

So anywho..one of the things my mom and I liked to do and often did,.was go to Taco Bell lol 😆 And realized I actually haven't had it since she passed..when I used to have it all the time! But it was always something we would do all the time together and I heavily associate "TB" (as she called it) with her. And even though it might sound triggering...I'm trying to learn to think of happy memories, different coping mechanisms and all in all just how to learn to work on/with my grief.

Cos I know she wouldn't want me to keep exhausting myself with constantly crying and being sad. And tbh this would not only help me with battling some (honestly) super annoying hunger pains and of course would mean soo much (for obvious reasons of course 🙏🏻), but would also be a nice way to think of her in a way that doesn't involve tears/crying lol ❤️‍🩹

I truly hope this doesn't sound like a guilt trip or anything cos I would never EVER do that especially when asking for help. As I am definitely no more deserving than anyone else on here who's also requesting for help/Food ect...I just wanted to be transparent/honest so make request makes a bit of sense and honestly I'm just really hungry and exhausted.

I know this of course is a one time request and I do have some ideas/plans to get me thru the next few days. My plan to get by for the next few days is to hopefully hit up a food bank on Monday. And then tomorrow I will try and sell some books to a local bookstore, have a small garage sale or something similar in attempt to scrounge up a little cash to get me by till I get my food stamps. So this would be a huge help for tonight or if not maybe tomorrow morning/early afternoon ect.

Thank you for taking the time to read this regardless if you can help or not. My apologies for my request being a little bit more lengthy than I had intended. I've never posted on this sort of reddit group before and hope I followed the rules ect. Thanks again 💗🌮💗🌯💗

Also- I'm not sure if I need to include this but I can pick up! As there's a location pretty close by that's open pretty late if need be!

What it says on the tin, I'm willing to take a few orders, hoping that making someone else's day better can improve mine, too.

Edit - redeemed! I'll be back soon with more tacos though 🌮

Hello all. I’m out of food stamps and food. I am starving and would be very grateful for anything you can offer. Thank you all.

Had to spend last night and gonna be most of today outside in the rainy crappy weather. Could really use some food while I wait/ find some place to go thank you in advance. Even if you stop by with kind words it's appreciated.

Welp, I got canned the other week. (im actually SO devastated about this LOL😩) & waiting to hear back on unemployment and oh the 21 jobs I’ve applied for. I’m tired, I’m broke, and just want to contemplate life over a little tbell.

Thank you.

Hi everyone! Love to see such kindness on Reddit. I have been dealing with a sick child all week. She has a gastrointestinal bug and has been, unfortunately, spewing it from both ends. It’s been a nightmare. I haven’t ate much because I’ve been too busy cleaning up and washing sheets and clothes. I’d really love to have something to eat to remind me to relax and take it easy. If that is possible I would be very greatful!

hey guys, just had to pay some bills and the food cabinets are getting low. Can anyone spare some taco bell? Ill be sure to pay it forward. Thanks in advance!

Had a really hard and busy week that had me staying overnight at work, only for a message from my boss to send me bawling. Would really love a pick-me-up.

I hate to post but im hoping someone may be able to get a party pack for myself and my three kids.

Backstory:

I just got out of the hospital after cardiac arrest a couple of days ago. I have zero funds right now and I am completely exhausted. But I have a couple of boxes of mac and cheese as a back up if this doesn't work out. 😊

[REQUEST]

Soooooo... I just took my pain meds and I'm a little... Yeah. Is there anyone who would be willing to get me some food? I got no car, and can't drive like this anyway.

EDIT: Okay, I should not have my phone while on meds like that, lesson learned. Also I just realized I forgot to put request at the beginning of the title, sorry about that...

I decided to buy someone a meal last night in this subreddit and have now started receiving dm’s of people asking for food. I used my very little money to be kind to someone; this is very rude and quite frankly annoying. Thanks! (Delete if not allowed mods)

Tonight I'd like to buy someone dinner. I know someone out there needs a hot meal on this long Monday. I will buy you a cravings box and an extra goodie. must pick up, no delivery. I will update when this offer is fulfilled. Good luck

‐-------THIS OFFER IS FULFILLED--------

Thank you r/breakfastBiscuits! This will definitely hit the spot!

Hello there! I am posting cause the whole family is kinda sick and we'd really appreciate taco bell and not cooking lol just some stuff off the cravings menu per person would be great! Me hubby and two kids. Thank you to anyone who read this far and I hope you all have a lovely day.

I earned a fire reward from someone’s gift. I’d like to give back, what would you like and why?

Thank you so much for the kindness!

I’ll cradle the balls, stroke the shaft, work the pipe, and deliciously swallow the gravy for some tacos or a box(not trying to be greedy). Only caveat is, I don’t have a car now. Any willing participant willing, please let me know. You make me so happy! -

Got laid off of work and after expenses I’m only left with a few dollars to my name until my unemployment gets sorted out. I’m able to pick stuff up and I’m not particularly picky either just hungry. Any assistance would be deeply appreciated.

Hello! I am here simply to ask for a meal from Taco Bell. After having read many of the posts here, unfortunately it looks like my situation is very similar to so many others out there. I am currently homeless residing in a motel and doing things day-to-day. After months of searching I successfully obtained full-time employment, which starts tomorrow morning at 10 AM, in the meantime, if anyone is willing to to help, I would greatly appreciate it. I thank you so much and I hope everyone’s taking care of themselves and for those of you out here helping those of us in need thank you and I hope you’re taking care of yourselves! You are appreciated. I am on the outskirts of Portland, Oregon. Have a great day!

Edit - Request fulfilled!

Hey all,

It’s been a few days since I’ve eaten anything filling and thought it might be worth making a request here, I can pickup. If there’s anyone able to help me out for a meal for 1 let me know, I’d greatly appreciate it.

Thank you so much for the taco bell

I could use a pick-me-up. Was laid off last June (I know a long time but the market in my field is rough), and have had a tough time finding work in the meantime. This week I will buckle down and find something just to hold me over and pay rent. Would genuinely appreciate anything. SNAP mistook my tax return for income, so I’m surviving on $23 until late April.
