.... tonight for dinner from a local pizza joint we have done business with for years. So when the pizza guy delivered our pizza's, we saw we got the wrong order. So I called back & the lady I spoke to was very nice & kept apologizing. She said she would have the correct order delivered in 45mins. Well 10 mins later the pizza guy is at the door with our order & this time it's correct. So now we had 4 pizza's. The first order was a large pepperoni & a large Pineapple & Ham.

60mins later we get a knock at the door. A different pizza guy was back with more pizza! A duplicate order of our original order. So now we had 6 pizza's, 2 salads & 2 Calzones.

I called the pizza place & told them what happened. They once again apologized ( as if I was insulted to get free food ) and got a laugh in the bargain. Saying they were very busy tonight & a duplicate order had been shipped by mistake. The lady on the phone told me to enjoy the pizza's & to have a great night.

Now I have lunch for the next week @ work.

Reminds me of that one time when i got free food at mc donalds. I ordered to go and the worker on the line next to me accidently put her customers food in MY bag, so i got all his food for free. I left as soon as i noticed.

Free food ftw
 
I got free KFC at an airport once. Pretty much the only free food ive gotten.

Oh, no there was this one time where we had a couple dead bugs on our pizza at some restaurant. So we got two large bug-less pizzas for free.
 
THis happened to us one time. We didn't get the right breadsticks, so we got a whole second order of pizza and breadsticks. Even if they would have gotten the order wrong a second time, I wouldn't have complained. They were pretty generous with the whole pizza thing.
 
I know a woman who was in Tesco, bought something that was labeled as "two for €5" or something like that but noticed she got charged full price. Annoyed that she lost out on two quid she made a small complaint to the desk, expecting just to get the change back. They gave it to her, plus the cost of the entire shopping and let her take everything for free (about €150 worth of shopping). She ended up with slightly more money than when she walked in.
 
I got some free prawn crackers with my chinese once, that was pretty cool...
 
you know who always fuks up my order?? Wendy's. Everytime I eat there they fuk up the most simple orders.
 
One time I orderd beer at a bar, and then when I was reaching for my wallet, the bartender said: No, it's cool.

That was one of the best nights of my life.
 
I filled my tank up at a gas station once without paying because the system didn't record it. When I went in to pay, the cashier looked at me like I was an idiot when I told her I wanted to pay for the gas I just bought.
 
I went to a bar the other night, and me and my friend decided to splash out (ie waste money) and order cocktails
We started chatting to the bartender about cocktails and his career in cocktails (he's the best in town) and then asked him to make us something. He said "sure, as long as you tell me if you don't really like it".

I give away shit at my work all the time. It's worth it.
 
Gotta love free eats.

Got in a taxi with some girlfriends in first year of uni, went home after dropping them off, fair was about £28 or something. Fished around in my wallet and realised I only had about £3. He just said 'Its cool, just give it to me next time'.

Practically sprinted away from the car.
 
When I worked at Ruby Tuesdays, one of our managers was about my age and after a big night, he would let us have a beer from the tap - on the house. So it was our manager, another guy that worked there (who I worked with for 2 years), and myself sitting at the bar.

A month later, the other guy that had the beer with us - who was under age - was killed when he was driving drunk and hit a tree. I never cried so hard at a funeral before.

Now i depress :(

how i unpress?
 
At Christmas we got a joint of beef, a huge turkey breast joint and some other stuff with our online Asda order that we hadn't ordered! We still had another turkey breast that we had ordered, along with a large joint of gammon and sausage and bacon rolls. Needless to say we had a damn good Christmas Day meal, and more great meals for several days afterwards!
 
You guys are lucky. The only food I remember getting for free were a single bag of lifesavers candy because it came up as the wrong price on the cash register, and a slightly less cheap burger at a McDonald's drive-through because they gave us someone else's order. And once I bought about a pound of vegetables but it only weighed in as half a pound on the cash register scale.

I do tend to win more than my share of crappy raffle prizes though. Basically, I win door prizes at any boring event that involves having lunch/dinner with a large group of people who I don't know and/or don't like.
 
Once I grew up in a happy home and my parents fed me every day, all I wanted, free of charge - and what's more, they loved me, too.

Those days are over now. :(
