Food Bargains!

Bargains do not only apply to great discount clothing! Food can be expensive (especially in a city like DC) so here are a few tips to satisfy your bargainista appetite!
1). Go to your favorite bakery/pastry shop fifteen to twenty minutes before close and freebies ensue.
       This past week on a study break to Dunkin' Donuts I was charged for only five munchkins (donut hole-esque morsels of goodness for those of you who need to brush up on your Dunkin' Donuts lingo) at about $1.25 total and received fifteen!
2). Marshall's and TJMaxx are not just for clothes!
       These great stores also usually feature a section or two of non-perishable foods at great prices! Just a few weeks ago I scored gourmet pumpkin coffee and expensive chocolates for a fraction of their costs had I bought them in a grocery store!
3). Online coupons!
       Subscribe to sites which will frequently send you coupons (via email) for restaurants in your area!
