PDF Print E-mail
1. PBR – Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer, it’s one of the cheapest and gets the job done. (Good for when playing Beer Pong)

2. Costco Dog - $1.50 gets you a huge polish and a bottomless soda (note: hit up the samples first, then hit up the Costco Dog)

3. Top Ramen – Best 8 cents ever spent

4. Mac & Cheese – The classic: Macaroni and Cheese (tip: use the Garlic Butter left over from your Papa John’s Pizza)

5. PB&J – Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches. Just like Mom use to make…..right?

6. Tater Tots – Taste even better when BBQ’d

7. Pizza by the Slice – Lets face it, it’s a main part of a students diet

8. 25 cent sodas – There’s no cheaper soda than your local stores brand name drinks

9. Taco Tuesday – More than likely there is a restaurant/bar near you that has All-U-Can-Eat Tacos on Tuesdays.

10. Oatmeal/Granola – Great for breakfast, it’s cheap and will keep you full until lunch.
