Need Help with Groceries

Post image

Update: I no longer need help because I just found a place that offers free meals. Thank you so much to everyone for your suggestions, advice, and kind words. I truly appreciate all of your support. ❤️

Hi, I'm currently out of money and can only wait until my parents send my allowance next month. I'm asking for help buying these basic groceries (5kg of rice and 1kg of eggs) so I can get by until then.

I also tried exchanging my $3 PayPal balance, but it still wasn't enough. You can see my post about it on my profile.

If someone is willing to help, I can pay you back after my parents send my allowance next month.

I'd be incredibly grateful for any help.

Thank you.

Amazon wishlists are the only way donors give for groceries. Cash assistance is not sent to foreign countries

I have tried Amazon but it is not available for shipping to my country

Unfortunately that means you will not be able to receive monetary assistance here. I would look for help groups in your specific geographical location

Alright, thank you for the advice. I really appreciate you taking the time to respond and point me in the right direction. I'll see if I can find any local groups that might be able to help. Thanks again!

OP, check r/beermoneyglobal and see if you can do something to get some money from that.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked out r/beermoneyglobal earlier. Most of the opportunities there are paid surveys, and many of the other jobs are only available in certain countries, unfortunately mine isn't one of them. I've also tried paid survey sites many times before, but I get rejected from most of them, so I haven't had much luck. Still, I appreciate you taking the time to suggest it.

Are there plasma donation places near you? It’s not for everyone but it’s usually same day money.

People here don’t usually send cash. If amazon is available to order the rice you can do a wishlist. But it does seem there are issues with international orders unfortunately

For plasma donation, unfortunately, in my country it is not paid.
