When you move into off-campus housing by TTU, it might be tempting to order restaurant food every night. It’s hot, delicious and you don’t have to cook. Plus, you won’t have to buy groceries every week. You’re actually saving money, right? Unfortunately, restaurant food might taste delicious, but the price tag adds up fairly quickly. How can you enjoy restaurant food without blowing your weekly budget?
How Often Should You Eat Out When Living in Student Housing?
Ultimately, the answer depends on your personal budget. However, for most people, it’s best not to eat out more than one or two nights per week. If you’re not used to cooking for yourself, this can be hard to get used to. However, there are plenty of recipes online that teach you how to make hot, delicious meals with cheap ingredients.
Additionally, if you’re not eating out every night, it becomes something you actually look forward to. You can use it to reward yourself when you finish that project you’ve been working on or get an A in your biology class. You can also organize special nights where you and your roommates all get together for the evening and order a meal from your favorite restaurant.
