問題詳情：
She continued to see her friends, but gave up going to cafès to see them. “Instead of meeting for lunch in a cafè as usual, we’d take sandwiches and home–made soup and eat in the park,” said Kath. She made the soup every morning from chicken given away by a local shop and whatever cheap vegetables she could find. She found out that small food shops often sell whatever is left over at the end of the day very cheaply because they cannot keep it overnight. She really lived a simple life.
Kath picked fruit from bushes and trees and looked out for free buffets(自助餐). “I was the queen of the buffet. Every time there was a public event and a crowd was needed, I was there. I took my friends out to free events, too. I couldn’t buy drinks for them or anything like that so I’d take them to art openings.”
Kath also picked up coins dropped in the street and managed to collect £117. She said, ”I kept it for emergencies (緊急情況), but in the end I didn’t need it so at the end of the year I gave it to charity.” Kath says one of her best tips is to hand out small gifts whenever you can ---- what you receive in return will usually be of a greater value.
During the 365 days of her experiment she managed to keep to her budget(預算). By the end of the year, Kath was able to use some of the £10,000 salary she had saved up to buy a special gift for her brother Danny. She said, “Before, I enjoyed spending money on treats, like chocolate and weekends away, but now I don’t see the need for expensive things. I don’t spend much at all, though it is probably more than £1 a day.”
