Money-Saving Tips

Saturday January 3, 2004
I received this money-saving tip from a recent email:
"As a college student, things can get a little bit crazy. Eating at fast food restaurants can cost a lot of money, not to mention the extra calories! The best thing to do is to plan your meal for each week (easier said then done) but you got to promise to stick to it. Pack your lunch and/or dinner the night before. Another thing I found helpful is to have a certain amount for gas (let's say $10.00) and about $5.00 as pocket money which you should try to stretch for the whole week. Believe me, you will save mega bucks!"
