i love how all these kids go to school while they are brook then graduate and are still broke and owe a mortgage of debt for no job.doesnt make sense people wake up.

Actually I only have about 2000 in college debt, have worked my way through school and have a possible job offer for when I graduate in dec. and also have a home business that is growing. So I am actually not bad off.

Those are not 50 cents each. They average out to be 50 cents maybe.

Yea, the total was 9 dollars

Hey Kid -- you gotta eat some veggies or your teeth will fall out. Next time buy some spinach and put it in your ramen soup. Add a wedge of lime or lemon juice for taste and for vitamin C.

@crager12080 you can use water

[SpiffySteph]

Stick with healthier and far cheaper foods like rice and beans instead of the highly processed foods that are terrible for your health and are more expensive! Then add on the least expensive fruits and veggies, like oranges, and canned/frozen veggies, using coupons! :) You were still probably eating healthier than the average college student though!

Good job with your groceries. I'm always scrounging for food. Hooray for being in college.

yum ramen..... nope

College is a scam. Your parents take a second mortgage, go into debt for what? So you can get out and find no job? Yup! Go to a two year state school (save 40K) work part time in your field of interest) and then transfer. Understand that America offers the WORST education money can buy on the planet. You want to see how "screwed" we are? talk to your Grandma or Pa. The education they received 60 years ago from high school was comparable to a PHD today. Question authority!
