poor man’s grip

When your home gym doesn’t have any heavier dumbbells, so you hold two in one hand.

I didn’t have any 75s, so I had to use the poor man’s grip.

Poor Store

A thrift store. Not derogatory, used only to describe the general low prices of resold/donated items with a convenient rhyme. Can be used to describe national chains like Goodwill or local thrift shops and sometimes surplus/salvage stores.

1) "Hey, where'd you find that copy of Chibi Robo? Aren't those kind of expensive?"

"Yeah, I got real lucky at the poor store last time I went, guess someone donated it."

2) "Dude, you should come with me to the poor store sometime, there's always cool stuff in there. I bought a bunch of out of print books for way less than a lot of eBay listings."

3) "That's a snazzy suit, where'd you get it?"

"You'd never believe this, but I got it at the poor store! It's amazing what people will get rid of."

4) "If you're looking for old vinyl records, chances are you can find some at a poor store, I've found several at good prices that way."

Poor Magnifying

When an individual desires a luxury item but cannot afford the item drawing attention to the individual's less than wealthy circumstances.

I stay away from the cosmetic counters in Neiman Marcus or Nordstroms because they are so Poor Magnifying.

Semi-poor

One step up from truly being poor. But one step down from being considered broke.
One wrong financial move away from being destitute.

I have just enough to pay most of my bills but not enough to have a social life. I'm semi-poor.
