HOW TO MANAGE COST OF FEEDING AS A STUDENT - 10% to @campusconnectng
Being a student in any Nigerian university especially federal or state university is hard and thus demands planning.
Starting from the various expenses which includes, transportation, buying water for those that stays off campus, paying light bills, etc. None of these can be compared to the amount that is being spent on feeding.
Today, I will be sharing with us how to manage feeding expenses.
Expenses as regards to feeding has more than tripled in the last couple of years due to the constant decline of our economy which results in low production thus leading to scarcity of products which thereby results to increase in price of finished foods. Also, the fact that our currency is contastly being devalued is another major factor.
The above is not easy for any Nigerian no to talk of a student who has little to no source of income to support whatever he or she is getting from relatives.
Nevertheless, proper planning will help in managing the difficult situation.
Instead of always buying already made food which of cause won't reach anywhere when consumed, it is best to develop a cooking habit in other to help manage cost.
Start by making it a priority to always buy food stuff maybe monthly and fight the urge of eating outside.
- See below
It doesn't usually end in buying foodstuff because sometimes out of laziness most students will have foodstuff and still end up spending on food more than one without foodstuff.
Therefore, strive to cook on days you are not very much occupied with maybe work or other school activities.

When you form this habit of cooking, you will see that it doesn't just save cost of monthly feeding for you but also allows you to enjoy quality meal to your own very satisfaction.

CC,
I totally agree with you here i believe proper meal planning is crucial especially for students if we are to remain healthy in school as it will help us eat quality meal while saving much cost and unnecessarily spending on junks which does not add any nutrients to our body, i must say i love the food you have prepared you really seem to be enjoying in school🙂 seems you've got the moolah
Thank you for your comment.
The thing is spending on junks and already made food actually cost more than making your own food.
And as you're making your own food, once in a while you can add chicken😁
I see, the chicken is a very nice addition hope when asuu finally calls off the annoying strike i can be adding chicken too one in a while 🙂
Of cause
Yes you are right. Buying foodstuff is way better than going out to it especially with the state of the economy. Everyone should know how to cook and that goes for the boys too.
Thanks for sharing this with us today.
Keep posting awesome content on Campus Connect!
Thank you so much for your warm review @awesononso
Cooking hard boss, stress for school stress for house😭😭. But what you said is true but the issue is having that strength to cook after long stressful hours hence Students will spend on already prepared meals to save time and energy
That was why I said it's best to cook when you're not occupied with work or other school activities.
Sometimes it is not lack of strength but mainly laziness. Laziness is very bad that it doesn't just prevent one from making money but also hinders one from saving money.
It is not laziness, when your tired you are tired. Take for instance in the East Mondays are lockdowns, some departments have even extended classes to Saturday, the stress can be draining and then you still have to go home and read. The truth is that you will spend most times eating outside than even cooking. It is not because of laziness, but to save time and energy. Is not like every student has a fridge to store their food. Some students even after school job how do you expect such Student to be cooking. Yes you have a good point there, it will help to save money but most students dont have that time and it will be worse after this strike because faculties will want to covee everything within a short period of time, so students will be kept back in school for longer period of time.
I am sorry for tagging you here @irawandedy but I need your attention because I have not been getting any form of support from the curation team and I do not know what the problem might me.
Thank you and please don't be offended😥
You touched a really important part of student hood, cost management. I for one am terrible at managing money in school so this a plus for me but wait o I am seeing chicken in your food. You get money pass ritualist o
@swaylee comot for here. You're a benefit boy.
Just eating benefits from all angles. You really don't need to manage cost because you are equal to the task.
Thanks for the information shared. To be honest cooking is really cheaper than purchasing food . I just hope Nigeria would be better so price in food commodities would become stable once again.
We all hope and at the same time we keep getting ready for the worse
You are right and may we pull through.
