I'm poor as fuck, how do I practice?

Easy. Don't drink.

EDIT: Really. I didn't drink for a year when I went out and practice and I'm all the better for it. Drinking reduces anxiety but destroys calibration. You remember everything better and you learn more doing it sober. If you MUST hold a drink, get tonic water or seltzer with lime, or even a coke. It's a dollar, or free if you are claiming to be sober driver.

For dates, pick coffee dates, cook at home, and try happy hours. Tell the girl that you'll get food, she gets drinks. Ice cream dates (6-8$ if you pay for her).

If you have a clear idea of what you want, you will find ways to achieve it.

Contrary to popular belief you don't actually have to out to the bar/club to practice.

Getting groceries and see a cute chick/guy? Practice there! Depositing work check? Same thing. Remove the limitation of only practicing in your nightlife.

Work on day game for sure. It's pretty satisfying.

I'm poor too, I have trouble getting enough gas money to go to a club, let alone buy a drink. So I drink icewater at clubs, and look for free venues. I used to go to the free outdoor concerts on friday and saturday evenings during the summer, but they have all been rained out. So I focus on day game with random interactions as I go about my daily life.

Everyone already mentioned you don't have to drink a lot (and probably shouldn't) when you're working on your bar/nightclub game. If you live near a shopping area go there, there will be plenty of woman. Also there will usually be attractive woman working at all the stores who will always ask if you need help, always say yes. I'm usually pretty successful day gaming chicks who work in clothing/retail stores. If you don't want to buy anything just say you're looking for <insert item> but you want to check out a few different stores so you find something you really like. Once I've gotten bored of the store or I feel its time to move on I usually just end with a simple "give me your # and we'll meet up for coffee next time I'm free."

I am even more poor than you. I was wondering a lot of the same things, and now I see that I am not alone in this. I try my best to flirt with girls at registers and in stores or if I can think of something fast enough to say, girls on the sidewalk. I don't have much luck closing recently, but that is probably my own self confidence problem.

I don't go to clubs/bars usually at all, I stick to day game only. It makes your skills sharp. You want to be able to catch a fish barehanded, not just with a net, because some day the most glorious fish you've ever seen might come by when your net isn't around, will you be ready?

This is not to say that I presently catch a lot of fish. But I could if I tried to, you know?
