I’ve found a great way to get a free coffee - just pretend you’re interested in joining a gym and they will give you a free drink of your choice in the cafe whilst you fill in the form. I am pretty happy with the gym I am at, (it’s hard to be unhappy with somewhere that you rarely go) but decided to take a look at a rival gym that I pass on the way home. It was OK, but not all that different from where I am (most gyms are full of very similar stuff, but I still keep searching for one that is full of equipment made of chocolate and singing Oompah Loompahs), but the important thing is that for an investment of 15 minutes in time my wife and I got a coffee EACH and didn’t have to pay a dime. We could get four coffees EACH an hour if we kept this grift up (though that doesn’t factor in travel time between the gyms) making a tax free £12 an hour. In fact if we just waited for the coffee, drank it and then said “I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want to look round your shitty gym!†then you could probably get in 12 coffees an hour. Which is probably too many coffees, but if you take a flask with you you could take them back to your own cafe and sell them to unknowing customers and be making clear profit.
I think The Sting would have been a much better film if it had been about this.
All in all I might make more money if I stick with comedy, but not as much coffee. So my future hangs in the balance.
