One adjustment students need to make at this time of year is mastering a food budget. When you're living on campus with a meal plan, food might not cross your mind. But when you're on your own completing a summer internship—or if you've graduated and are starting out in the working world—food costs can add up quick if you don't get a handle on them.
One of my favorite personal finance bloggers, Madame X at My Open Wallet
, has a collection of inexpensive recipes from other PF bloggers
: pretty cheap and still tasty. A winning combination for those on a budget!
UPDATE (June 28, 2007): I was checking out some other PF blogs and found that English Major
did a frugal food series
. Very good stuff there, too.
