Drinking each night of the week at a different bar that had Penny Pitchers, 5 dollars all you can drink, Quarter Draws, etc.
The saddest thing I ever saw in college was when some D-Bag would actually hand the waitress or bartender a penny for a "penny pitcher." Uh, your still supposed to tip, you can probably throw a buck to the bartender for two freakin pitchers of beer.
Oh yeah, plasma donation. $200 extra a month to pay for my dirt-cheap apartment. Good times. That, coupled w/a decent part-time job kept tuition paid and kept me inebriated throughout college.Quote:

Borrowed money from a roommate to pay rent. Twice.
My poorest college experience has not yet happened.
Eating soft shell bologna tacos
We used to steal our toilet paper from campus and other restaurants. The best were the huge rolls that a few restaurants had that were like the size of car tires. I stole a huge roll out of Cocost and I had to walk out the back with it shoved up my shirt... while on a date with a girl I had just started dating.Quote:

Using my parents BP Credit Card to buy lunch and some groceries at the gas station.
Bouncing checks to Hy-Vee to get cash for the bar. That or trying to withdrawal $5 from the ATM and finding out I didn't have enough.
been there ... My bank charged me twice - once for the overdraft ($35) the again, because my auto-transfer from my other account didn't have enough funds to make up the -$35.Quote:

They resinded the charges when I offered to sign up for their credit card - :no: - so many of this f'n things. I think I graduated college with 7 open credit card accounts.

cramming 29 pennies is an ATM deposit envelope so I could get the balance up to $5 for all you can drink night at "The Cave". I could hear those pennies falling inside the machine as soon as the feeder tore the envelope open.
When I realized I hated dorm food, I moved into a house my friend bought. We grew "party favorites" to subsidize our income.
that makes me want to pukeQuote:

Either eating mayo sandwiches or waiting at my house for a new credit card to come so I could go on a school trip to Vegas.
Wow, those were the days.
