I put my red light on tbh

Although in all seriousness, I just stop spending money I'll borrow a tenner for petrol if I'm that desperate.

Never been in that situation, spend within your means!

If I was I'd sell whatever to get the money required!

I got a second job when times were hard, never had to sell anything I didnt want to though. Usually when I run out of cash it makes me get my finger out and sell out stuff, for instance had a 32"lcd sitting doing nothing for months so sold it for £100 on friday

I was selling stuff I had around house no longer used like my xbox 360 taht played twice, 2 old ipods I still had etc etc. Now I'm back up and running, I'm getting new gizmo's to replace them. Times hard mate, just got to stick it out

There are plenty of jobs around. If you are really desperate, you will do a NMW job. If you won't do it - you are not desperate enough.

I charge different prices [increases as the amount of fingers up me increases]. Jokes.

Fuck all I just man up and deal with it. Find a cheaper way around it if it 'has to be done' so to speak.

If I'm desperate for money I don't go out drinking. Never get that bad that I'm selling stuff though.

I stand outside LETGSI16V's house with a bowl and offer to shine his shoes in return for a chance to beg him for money.

I just offer to go to the bookies for him. He gave me £1350 once! Luckily the bet he wanted placing never came off.

Can't say I've been desperate for money but if I see something I fancy and need some extra money towards it I valet my neighbours cars
