Bring Your Lunch

As a student, most of college you will grab a lunch between classes.  There lies the decision: what to have for lunch?  Yes you can eat in the dining center, but for some students, there isn't enough time or it is more convenient to eat elsewhere.

Eating out can be really expensive.  Take five dollars times how many times you eat out a week... that adds up fast.  Eating in the Union is really expensive too.  You don't think about it because you can just charge it to your university bill, but once it comes time to pay that bill, you'll be raking out the cash.  Plus it's highly unlikely you'll be making healthy decisions when you choose these options.

I suggest bringing your lunch to school or work with you.  You not only save money, but you also are gonna have a much healthier meal.  I recommend Healthy Choice meals.  They have a lot of variety to choose from so you can try different kinds until you find the ones you like.  Another option is Steamfresh meals.  They have a lot of varieties as well.  Below is a picture of my favorite meal to bring.. Chicken Margherita!  Pair that with a strawberry yogurt (or whatever kind you like) and you not only have a cheap lunch, but also one that's healthy and delicious!


Bottom line: Bring your lunch instead of buying one.  You'll save money and make healthier decisions.
