I have $1,400.00 for the next 120 days

This isn't a parody, I'm serious. All I buy is food and gas. Gas about once a week.

Exactly. I accept your apologies.

A lame parody is still a parody.

So under no circumstances you can't work for the next 120 days?

Aren't you a college student anyway?

easy
thats over $100 a week.

If you cant live off of that (alone) , you need help. Food can be done for $5 a day, easily, but you may want to average around $7.5 a day for variety. then thats almost $48 a week for gas/fun.


Yesterday, I woke up, had a bag of mini muffins, went to work (Circuit City.) had two drinks while there, on breaks, then went to checkers after work and came home. Cost me about $6-6.50 total for it all. (triple cheeseburger at checkers)


If you make food yourself, its much healthier, and also significantly cheaper. Ground meat is on the medium end for price, but if you can make burgers with it, they are relatively cheap, and very yummy 🙂 Thats what im making for lunch, then dinner will probably be a sub from a good place on the way home from work, for $3.75

I have 1400 budgeted for one month.....i can't imagine doing it over 4.....I mean that's less than 100 bucks per week.

$11.66 a day. That could be tight buying food and gas. How much do you spend to fill up? It wont be the healthiest anyone has ever eaten, but on pasta, mac and cheese, and eggs you can probbaly make it happen.

Figure...
$35/week for gas leaves $46.69/week for food. If you budget right you can eat on that pretty easily. If you buy meat that is on sale and frozen veggies and pasta it can be done.

Now this guy knows his stuff. Sounds like a plan!
