Take up smoking. Then give it up again and you'll save yourself hundreds of pounds a year.

    Buy a car, pay stupid amounts for tax and insurance then leave it at home and cycle everywhere.

    Oh, hang on a minute, I already do that............. :lol:
    The problem is we are not eating food anymore, we are eating food-like products.

    Rob a bank/bookies. If you get away with it you get a lot of cash moneys, if you get caught you get free bed and board for 15-20 years.

    save your old inner tubes, clean them up a bit, cut them in half and attach a buckle, then stamp it with a trendy name like 'Rapha' or something and flog then to gullible westenders....

    oh damn, too slow, someone beat me to it !

    That's the best one yet.
    I heard someone from a trendy clothing brand, can't remember which one, saying during a radio interview that in the early days they used to buy M&S socks in packs and sell them individually at several times the price. Had anyone else been listening it could have been a Ratner moment.

    At which point you get legal aid from the state to raise a lawsuit against the prison governors for allowing the rape to take place. Net result - you get the funds you were stealing from the bank in the first place.
