Free food/drinks:
POPCORN at movie theatre: Go to your movie, wait a little bit into the previews. Then search the trash cans for a bucket of popcorn, or the largest popcorn that theatre sells. (It’s almost always free refills for a large). Pull it out, put it on the ground and step on it. Go to the concession stand and say “Hey, can i get a new bucket, some asshole stepped on my popcorn”. Tested and approved by yours truly, it’s worked every time and i never pay for popcorn now.
KRISPY KREME dozen donuts: Go to Krispy Kreme and apply for a job. Just simply applying gets you a free dozen donuts!
ANY MEAL, at nearly any restaurant: Bring an already dead insect such as a fly, spider, beetle, moth, anything, and put it in your food when you are 3/4 of the way done with it. Act disgusted, saying you don’t want a new plate and you are grossed out and just want to leave with your refund. Obviously won’t work if you say were in a different culture and that insect was supposed to be part of the meal.

ANY SUPERSTORE item scams: Go to your desired superstore and pick out your desired merchandise. Go to the dog food isle and find a big bag of dog food that you can most easily open and reseal. Open, put merchandise inside, buy dog food. For extra safety, get a cart, and get 2 of each desired item that you want. Get dog food and put one of each inside the bag. This way it’s not nearly suspicious as say you picked up $100 headphones went to the dog food isle and it disappeared, your still buying it and is hard to tell on camera how many you actually grabbed. Make sure put the merchandise in the bag of dog food in the dog food isle, no one steals dog food and it has minimal camera coverage and security measures compared to the whole store. Purchase your dog food and merchandise, now if an alarm goes off they won’t even check. If hey do, you have merchandise that could possibly go off anyway. Return your duplicates of your desired merchandise for a full refund whenever you feel like it. I’ve worked at many superstores, they won’t check the dog food haha. Tested and approved by yours truly.
BATTERIES from amazon: Purchase batteries on amazon. Once received, return the item. They will give you a full refund and let you keep the merchandise.

ADDITIONAL tips for free money, food and the goods, all from the comments. Keep in mind that they don’t all have to be good, and highly practical, there’s still a chance to get caught just like every tip I’ve listed. Please don’t criticize other people’s top ideas, just criticize mine. Oh and my spelling and grammar!
Free food and drinks continued:
ANY MEAL DISCOUNTS, best case scenario free it’s free, but you could get a discount or a coupon: Politely tell your waiter/waitress “I have been here many times, and never had a problem. (maybe some compliments as well). But this is the worst food I’ve ever tasted”. This will get you what you want.
CHICK-FIL-A free extra food(probably works in some other places): CFA has a policy to where they can’t take back food that a client opened. If you nicely complain that they didn’t make it right, toppings, ect.. If your an asshole they will take it back and throw it in the trash though. APPROVED by me, as i used to work there and saw it done many times.
GOOD CHANCE FOR FREE fast food, especially @ CFA]: Go through the drive through, and when you approach the window (edit from OP, just adding to make sure the fast food place doesn’t have a pay window and a food pickup window for best chances) act like you forgot your wallet, and you should get free food! APPROVED by me, especially since my boss specifically told us to do it.
MORE FREE FOOD, sounds obvious, but people tend to frown upon it: Obtain your free food by going to soup kitchens, food banks, food pantry, and many churches also have potlucks. Some smaller churches also have free food after each service.
STARBUCKS FREE coffee, improved] Starbucks employee here. The simplest way to scam the system for a coffee, is to walk into starbucks, preferably when it’s super busy, and stand at the end of the bar where the drinks are being handed off. A lot of the time, we will have to call out somebody’s drink more than once because they didn’t hear their name called, their in the bathroom, etc... Really all you have to do is wait until you see a drink you like, and just take it if nobody else has.
