Amanda Bynes is surviving on American Express gift cards provided by her parents.
THE troubled 28-year-old receives between $50 and $100 a day for living expenses from her parents, TMZ is reporting.
Bynes’ parents, Rick and Lynn Bynes, typically deliver the money on gift cards to her court-appointed lawyer, who then hands them off to the star.

The former Nickelodeon actress has been spotted roaming around West Hollywood, visiting hotels and restaurants, since being released from Las Encinas Hospital after being placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold since Oct. 10.
Since the release, Bynes’ mother has been granted conservatorship — which allows her to make medical and financial decisions for the actress through 2015.
On Tuesday, Bynes took to Twitter to reveal she was back on medicine for bipolar disorder.
