00:00Ugh, come on.
00:03Celebrities always get stuff for free, man.
00:06It's an unfair world.
00:08But you're lucky, oh, I am, all right?
00:11So I'm gonna show y'all today how to get some free swanky and swag stuff from your friends.
00:18Hey, guys, this is Awkwafina.
00:20Welcome to New York.
00:21This is Ballin' on a Budget.
00:23Ah, New York, fashion capital of the world.
00:26We can't all spend tens of thousands of dollars in a worn-in T-shirt
00:30that looks like it's been shot up by the newest gang in town.
00:35Ditch your dull threads to make room for the new you.
00:38Organize a clothing swap with some of your most fashionable pals.
00:42Every Asian woman feels like she needs to own a kimono,
00:45and then she gets one and she doesn't know where it went.
00:48And we're ready for this clothing swap. Let's do it.
00:55You gotta know the right people, you know what I mean?
00:58Clothing swap.
01:00Oh, I said, I said clowning swap.
01:04Now we sit and we wait.
01:17Welcome to the ninth annual clothing swap.
01:19Effie, what are you wearing?
01:21I'm wearing my work outfit.
01:23You are a VP at a hedge fund.
01:25Nothing pays good enough to wear that in public.
01:27I don't know.
01:29Alright, let's get this over with. Come on.
01:33Remember in the Sex and the City movie where there's that montage
01:35where you see Olive Carey use great frocks in the back of her closet?
01:38Well, this is not that.
01:40But I did manage to get some pretty cute stuff.
01:43All dressed up and nowhere to go.
01:45Not in this city.
01:48Gallery openings are a dime a dozen in this town,
01:50and the wine is usually free.
01:51How are we doing over here?
01:53I love being surrounded by great works of art, art of works.
01:55So the wine, so the wine situation here.
01:57It's all free.
02:00Look at all these big boys right here.
02:01What are these called against?
02:02Oh, grapes.
02:03Are those?
02:04They're free too.
02:18You know what my favorite kind of wine is?
02:20Free wine.
02:23Everything was for free.
02:25The drinks, the food, the clothes, everything.
02:27You know what?
02:28It's lit.
02:29It's lit.
02:30It's 8.30, guys.
02:32Jesus.
02:34What's up?
02:34It's Awkwafina, rapper and comedian from Queens, New York.
02:37The only thing I like more than a New York slice is saving money.
02:41I'm gonna take you across the city to ball on a budget.
