Food List of the Day
Everybody's saving for something. You know, an iPod, your honeymoon, adding to your plastic pink flamingo collection. One area that is easy to target in your expenses is how much you spend on food. So here are some meal ideas for when you want to eat for under a buck:
- Tuna Sandwich
- White Rice from your neighborhood Chinese restaurant
- 4 Hot Dogs (be sure to steal mustard from White Castle first)
- Potato
- 2 Pot Pies (now microwaveable!)
- a couple Peanut Butter & Honey Sandwiches
- 1/2 of a 2 lb Banquet Frozen Entree
- 3 Frozen Burritos
- 6 Pack of Ramon noodles
- Spaghetti (and cheap sauce)
- Spaghetti O's
- 3 Corn Dogs
- 3 Bowls of off brand cereal
- Mac & Cheese
- A can of chick peas with Italian dressing
- 2 Cans of Pork & Beans
- Soup
- Box of generic Triskets
- 2lbs of frozen French Fries (TodD strongly suggests you unfreeze them first)
- 25 Turkey Nuggets
- Eggs
- Cheese Ravioli
- 1lb of Cole Slaw

That doesn't include going out to eat, though. I would think $250 would be sufficient for the average mid-20s professional.
That's about $8.00/day, which doesn't go very far when you're eating out, but if you are making meals at home, it's really easy to be close to $3 or $4 per day. Especially if you make things in larger batches and keep leftovers.
In college, I had a couple friends who actually ate the leftovers from someone's plate in a restaurant (they did not know that someone). While gross, it could save on the monthly food budget.
