    Better yet, buy cheap ramen noodles in bulk.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

        Be sure to take your Vitamin C pills if you do this. Otherwise it's scurvy time...

            Also, try to mooch off your friends as much as possible. If ALL of you have to live off 6 euros per day, make a pool to spend on cheap fun activities that you can do together.

              KH, yeah it is. Though I'm not going to that one, but I'm going to other big Uni that is well-regarded. Hey, I'm doing software engineering and mathematics strictly, and no one in here is going to pay for tutoring. I think that's a Canadian thing or something . Believe me.

                In general, basic produce, eggs etc. are cheap.

                Live simply. Eat soup, eggs, cheese etc.

                I did it for a year. No problem. Only lost 15 pounds.

                  mrmitchell, the positive side to this is that everyone else has to do it too! So I'm not alone in this.. unless they have rich parents. Also the food in Uni will cost me about 1.5 - 2 euros per day, and I think I'll want to do that, since it's relatively cheap and good food. So that leaves me with 4 euros per day. Man I love this challenge .
                  Maybe I can be a male prostitute to super rich old women? Some naked cleaning around the house should get me few extra bucks

                    You wouldn't believe how many idiots need to pass a basic calculus or mechanics class and are willing to pay you for your help.

                      KH, don't worry, not in here. We already have assigned tutors and we don't pay for it.

                        Slow cookers are pretty easy

                        basically all you have to do is slice the **** up and throw it in there and let it cook for 6 hours.

                            KH, yeah tell me about it.

                            Anyway, doesn't have to be related to this case, just in general will do just fine, so this thread would serve more of a purpose than just discussing how I'm going to survive.

                            Well, I hope I'm fortunate and can score the books I need from library everytime, or I'm screwed big time .

                                Vitamins are super expensive, definitely can't afford.
                                This is even more of a challenge than survivor tv series! They're just bunch of tossers having a free vacation in exotic island. People without job get about 27 euros per day (and there are other things they can apply for) and students gets.. around 7 euros per day . Such is life.
