Living near SMU and my bank account is dying. Everything on Mockingbird and Hillcrest is expensive. I love Meso Maya and Thai Soon but I can't eat $15 lunches every day.
Where are the affordable spots near campus? I need sub-$8 meals that won't make me feel like I'm eating out of a vending machine.
Also open to meal prep tips from other broke college students who figured it out.
Aldi on Mockingbird is your best friend for groceries. Meal prep Sunday, eat for $30-40/week.
