These simple tips should keep you off the streets with enough spare change to grab a beer every once in a while:

  1. Rent text books or buy them used. Under no circumstances pay full price at the university book store
  2. Don’t eat out. Cook, eat leftovers, or make ramen.
  3. Return can and bottles for the full deposit. You can really pocket some decent change doing this.
  4. Become a tutor for undergraduate students in your subject.
  5. Become a teachers assistant.
  6. Become a research assistant.
  7. Get a part time job at a local business.
  8. Start your own at home business, like a website for example.
  9. Shop for clothes at Goodwill. You can actually find some pretty solid stuff.
  10. Walk or ride a bike to class instead of driving.
