'We had free pizzas weekly for years...': 30+ Loopholes that people exploited to their own betterment

We're all just barely getting by in this world; every day is an uphill battle with no summit in sight. It would be nice to ease that burden a little, but we honest and simple folk probably won't ever have the chance to take advantage of any egregious loopholes in order to get well ahead of everyone else—and probably wouldn't anyway, due to how unethical they are… Undoubtedly, we'd all appreciate something to make our lives a little bit easier.

Occasionally, though, a chance presents itself to exploit a small loophole—even in the smallest way—little perks, exploits, glitches, and such—the kind of thing you sometimes can't help but be enticed by like a kid at a machine that's glitched and dropping free candy. The reality is that most of these small loopholes are relatively harmless and something you're most likely to come across as a kid with the keen attention to detail that curiosity and tons of free time provide, and even something like tricking the coin slot of a machine into thinking something is a quarter feels like a huge win.
