Pretty much every college student can relate to the struggle of being broke or limited on money. Those who are not on a meal plan have to limit their fundings when it comes to going to the grocery store. Not every trip to the grocery store has to break the bank.

Not the healthiest option, but it is definitely the cheapest option. When in doubt, go the cheap route.
