I am cheap!
I must say, when I started college in 2000, I was someone who didn't do anything but eat out all the time, i.e. Olive Garden, Lone Star, or order food in. I was a broke sista. I have learned my lesson. All it took was me moving off campus.
WalMart is the best thing to come. I will only by my food and stuff from there. Everything is so much cheaper. And don't start on Dollar Tree. You can get ALL your cleaning supplies there and not worry about a thing. And it works like magic. Mean Green is something special.
Another great thing is half.com. You can get textbooks for almost 50% off. I will never by a book out of the campus bookstore again.
But I must say, the only thing that I will spend money on is my hair. Don't get me wrong, when I started paying bills, I found out what box perms were(seeing that I never had one before 2002). I have mixed grades of hair, so I have to get mine professionally done or I will look a mess. So, the pro that I go to charges $60 for a perm. Its a lot, but it is worth it.
