food testing focus testing groups is my current side hustle. if you are in a major city (i'm in chicago and there are a lot) you can find these consumer tests, sign up for them and go into a facility and taste foods. they usually pay about 50 dollars to try one product and you can try interesting things in a strange envrionment with other strange people. I reccomend p&k surveys and curion and bryles.

Free food for them & as someone THOROUGHLY against "single-serve" baking it makes it so much easier not thinking about eating the leftovers before they go bad (or freezing & inevitably forgetting about them & throwing it out six months down the line).

IDK why more people don't do this. Too Good To Go is an app that helps cut down on food waste. You basically grab a "surprise bag" of unsold food from restaurants, bakeries, or grocery stores for super cheap (like $4.99 for a whole bag!). It's filled with stuff that would've gone to waste (like it's expiring soon). You just reserve a bag, pick it up, and you're good to go. Honestly, I've scored some amazing deals. The video linked explains it well. Heads up though—depending on where you are and the timing, some bags might not be great, but if you do your research, it’s totally worth it.

you can get your hair cut/dyed and also a lot of other things for a great price. if you are a student or broke with time to spend, this is a great way to spend it. I got three rounds of lightener and toner for 60 dollars. i also got my hair cut for 20 dollars once. also, the students i've met are very very very sweet.

the art institute holds free lectures from visiting artists pretty regularly. they have famous and good artists, and they can be extremely inspiring if you are an artist yourself. the lecturers are very interesting and give great life advice. i usually leave with a new feeling in my heart and body than when i came in.
