My Go-To Cheap Wines for a College Budget

College is hard. College is especially hard because you're ballin' on a budget. And college is even harder than that if you are ballin' on a budget and love to drink wine.. Because hello, wine is expensive if you don't want to die of a hangover. So, I did the college world a favor and decided to compile a list of not-so-expensive wines for everyone to use as a go-to. Ill start with the absolute cheapest and go from there.

 

Trader Joe’s Charles Shaw Wine. Regular bottle $3

 

Okay if you don’t know about this – NOW YOU KNOW. Such an amazing deal and the wine isn’t bad. Also doesn’t give you a hangover and is ORGANIC!! Wow!!

 

Barefoot. Regular bottle about $6

 

Duh! This wine is SO CHEAP. its like $8 for a gallon bottle of this stuff. And I don't even like white wine and I like their Pinot Grigio. Also seriously every time I go into Publix its like its on sale again.

 

Gnarly Head. Regular bottle about $7

 

If you are feeling a little fancier than Barefoot, Gnarly Head is my go-to. I also like their Cabernet, and not Barefoots.. So it works. Also the bottle is so cute!! (Perfect for your wine night snap story).

 

Rex Goliath. Regular bottle about $6 - $7

 

This wine is yummy and has a rooster on it!! The wine is surprisingly mom approved, and is hangover proof as well. As long as you don’t drink more than a bottle that is.

 

Clos Du Bois. Regular bottle about $9

 

This wine is slightly more expensive than the first three, but it is delicious and worth the extra dollar. Plus, I have noticed that the price has dropped and is on sale a lot.

 

Clayhouse Wines. Sale: two bottles for $16

 

This is a GREAT sale. Sometimes it’s even buy one at $15 get one for free. This wine is definitely more expensive but when it is BOGO its WORTH it. It’s delicious.

 

Smoking Loon. Regular Bottle about $10

 

This wine is delicious, and I discovered it when it was BOGO at Publix. I know some people are hesitant about BOGO wine and they think it moght be bad, so I am letting you know that its delicious, and also, it is worth the extra $2.

 

RELAX Wine. Regular bottle about $10 - $11

 

A little more on the expensive side, especially compared to trader joes, but it comes in a cute bottle and tastes great. It is also on sale often at Publix.

 

Box Wine. One box for about $20

 

Had to give a shout out to the box wine, because it is seriously so cheap and even my parents drink it. Now, I can’t lie to you and say you will have no hangover if you drink more than three glasses, but, I can tell you that it lasts so long (unless you are me and my friends).

 

Costco wine.

 

It is seriously every single bottle and kind of wine 50% off. AMAZING. Every time I go I get a case, so..

 

These are my secrets of delicious cheap wine. Take this info and run with it!!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
