My $3 Feast When Broke But Craving Takeout

Let's be real - sometimes you need the dopamine hit of eating out without the guilt of actually spending money. My ride-or-die? Two McChickens slapped together into an ghetto McSandwich. $3.25 of pure bliss that somehow feels fancier than it should. But I'm evolving. Recently discovered: • 7-Eleven taquitos + nacho cheese ($2.50) • Taco Bell's cheesy bean & rice burrito ($1.29) • Grocery store rotisserie chicken torn apart with bare hands in parking lot ($5) The magic isn't in the food - it's in the ritual. That intentional "I'm treating myself" moment, even if my wallet's crying. What's your broke-but-need-to-feel-alive meal? Bonus points if it comes with free shame. #BrokeFoodie #BudgetHacks #PovertyGourmet #TreatYoSelf
