FALL 2013

Grand total is $297.62!!  I took 10 trips to the store and ate for 16 weeks.I fed only myself for the majority of the time. I did have visitors throughout and would cook for them. I eat three meals a day almost every single day. Family would send me care packages often filled with nonperishable foods. My total does not calculate anything that was provided to me for free. This also excludes kitchen supplies like utensils or to-go bags. This total does include anything I spent going out to eat, or snacks on campus. The average total per trip was $29.76 and the average total per week was $18.60.
