Casinos will sometimes offer free money for playing their machines.  Along with this they may offer free food, beverages, entertainment.  Take along a wealthy friend, he will feel sorry for you and offer you a bit of cash.  Make sure you let them know you cannot afford to pay them back (unless you win, set up a percent of winnings they get).

Many hotels in “casino” area’s have a rack when you walk in, if you look close you will find the couponds for free breakfast and many time free play at casino’s
