Watch your food spending<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThere have been many occasions when I get carried away spending money on food that I do not need. From little packages of Twizzlers to bigger meals at my local burger joint, I end up looking at my bank statement in shock because I have racked up so much just on food.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nUse your dining hall<\/strong><\/b><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\nI know I get pretty tired of the food in my dining hall quickly (in which case you can spice it up<\/a>), but all in all it is a great way to save money. With food already prepared, waiting for you, there is no urgent need to go out for fast food each night, or have a sit-down meal at a local fancy restaurant. Plus, the dollars will not even necessarily be coming from your own account. It will come from your dining dollars. I know my school also allows me to use my dining card at local businesses like Chipotle or Red Mango. Find out if your school has deals similar to this!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nA Treat a day makes the bank stay<\/strong><\/b><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\nI love my daily Starbucks, but I know it makes a hole in my wallet or dining card. It has been tough, missing out on those Mango Black Tea Lemonades. But I have come to the decision to find my breakfast elsewhere, or at least size down my drinks. It has been pretty amazing to see the difference it makes on my account. Those $5 drinks sure do taste good, but are they really worth it?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.tun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/SaveEngineCoffeeMaker.png\")

This one<\/a> from Macy’s<\/a> will save you from having to spend hundreds of dollars in coffee shops every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBuy in bulk<\/strong><\/b><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\nIf you do like sweet treats or quick snacks, buy in bulk. It is a great way to save money while also supplying and maintaining your stock. When I want a quick bite to eat, I grab a Nature Valley Bar or a small bag of Goldfish that I buy in bulk. So stock up! In the long run, you will be saving quite a bit of money.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n[divider]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Get a job<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nHaving a job is obviously wonderful, and it helps in so many ways when you get paid every two weeks. You no longer have to text your parents (nervously) asking for just a \u201clittle cash,\u201d or feel bad when your friends seem to always pick up the check. You need worry less because having a paycheck means less debt hanging over your head. But it\u2019s not just getting a job that\u2019s important; it is as important to decide how to divvy up that paycheck.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nPut half in savings<\/strong><\/b><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\nI have done this ever since my first job, and it has been a great way to build a backup. In fact, now I even put more than half of my paychecks into my savings. It is a way to build a small safety net for yourself, for those just-in-case moments. It is always reassuring to look and see that you have saved money, for whatever you may need.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nBuild up your cash tips<\/strong><\/b><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\nThere have been a multitude of times when I look in my wallet and see a wad of single dollar bills that do not seem they will amount to much. But boy, do those bills add up! So try not to spend your cash tip money on the same day. Save it and see how much you have at the end of a week, or even two.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nSave those coins<\/strong><\/b><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n
