Introduction: Snake Snack Snake

The cost of living in New York is much higher than I thought, and I realized it was time to make a plan to save money.

Snake snack snake is a money-saving lamp. First, you need to set up your goal. The percentage of the led strip lights turn up will still be according to how much they reached the goal. When the goal is achieved, the "snake" will get its "snack", and the snack will turn on.
