May I suggest a bus pass in the meantime?

Are you in L.A?   If so, you should go to auditions and work as an "extra" if you are currently unemployed.

Find the nearest temp agency and give them your info.

Make some friends. Strike up small conversation with random strangers whenever possible, introduce yourself and explain that you're new to the area and was wondering what it has to offer.

Find some places to volunteer. Churches, youth centers, etc. Volunteering can lead to job offers. It's not a concrete method, but if you get offered a job (or someone suggests that you apply somewhere they have connections with,) you have a slim chance of not getting the position.

Depending on how much money you have and your living situation, look for a small duplex or something. Somewhere that has other people living there. Once you make it to that stage, start the cycle all over again by introducing yourself to the people surrounding you.

It's often who you know, not what you know.

Form connections like popcornplaya said. You never know who has a job opening.

Don't buy a $700 car. I have no idea where you're going to find one that cheap, unless it's either salvage title or just a bad car. Save up and buy a reliable one so you don't have to waste money on repairs.

And finally, just spend smart. Don't eat out, but do walk around and get a feel for where everything is.
