BEST IDEA: If you want, you can spend your extra meal plan money and buy non-perishable items in order to give to a food bank. FEED THE BUS! The bus seen at BSB this week is open to non-perishable donations where many people are using their meal plans dollars for. They are donating all this donated food to a food bank in Hamilton!
This is a great way to spend your meal plan AND feel good about it!!
And yet...another subtle pitch for donations.

Charity... what a terrible way to spend your money that you won't spend anyways.
Shame on whoever suggested this.

Thanks!
Send me a message and you can contribute some of the money to my food needs.
Apparently the person who does the ordering for Centro starts buying stuff in bulk around beginning of April and you can collaborate with him and ask for him to order specific things that you would be willing to spend your money on. Go to the Mac Express and ask for his e-mail/extension and you can arrange a meeting
