Got hit on yesterday, made me feel like I still got it.

[kdonnel]

I was helping my daughter move out of college yesterday and we went to the Commons for a desert (their dining hall) to burn through some of the 70 entry swipes she still has that expire today.

We were standing around the desert window when the young man waiting on us started engaging me in conversation. He complemented me on my haircut and liked how well my shirt fit me. I glanced over at my wife and daughter and they both shrugged their shoulders. The small talk continued, we got our dessert items and found somewhere to sit.

When we got the table I asked if I was confused or if the guy was hitting on me. My wife and daughter agreed that he was flirting with me.

Good to know I am still someones type.

He wasn't hitting on you. He was trying to get you to help him punch out his hair stylist.

Yes, hot daddy, I’d say you’ve still got it!

And thank you for not freaking out from some harmless flirting from another guy!

The meal plans are a rip off and a money maker for the schools.

As a resident in the dorm(each dorm has a full kitchen so they always ate breakfast in the room) she was required to purchase a meal plan.

There are three options, all are $1890 per semester.
Access 5 day Plan - Sunday-Thursday only, unlimited swipes, and $270 in dining dollars
Access 220 Plan - 220 swipes, $405 dining dollars
Access 160 Plan - 160 swipes, $810 dining dollars - This is the plan she was on for both semesters.

The dining dollars can be used at a few fast food places located in the student center and at the Starbucks located on campus.

At the end of this semester she had roughly 70 swipes left over and $100 in dining dollars. She was able to burn through the dining dollars by purchasing cases of water and snacks at the convenience store on campus that she brought home but the swipes just went to waste.

Towards the end of the semester she would swipe in people standing around outside the commons looking for a free meal. Even doing that she still had so many left.

Didn't both me, like I said even though I am not interested, it felt good to be wanted.

My DD will finish the school year 75-80 swipes. The meal plan was required and pathetic. You couldn't use it at all restaurants on campus. When you could use it, it was only good for 1-2 meals they offered. She quickly got sick of eating the same food over and over. I told her months ago to give swipes away at will. She's given some away, but not nearly enough.

Our school has maybe 10 plans all with different swipe amounts per week, from 7 swipes to unlimited weekly swipes and each plan has varying degrees of flexible spending dollars. Our sophomore have to live in university apartments, so next school year, more options are added to the mix.....semester swipes and flex dollars. I think I'm getting her 100 semester swipes, for breakfast and lunch on campus if she wants it. She's not leaving much on the table, maybe $40 flex dollars, if she's smart she will go get me a starbucks travel mug. LOL I was there yesterday moving her stuff home so she can just take amtrak home after tomorrow's final. I didn't want to take her flex dollars with 2-3 days left, so if she remembers, fine, it we "eat" them, fine too.

My son always ran out of swipes and dining dollars. He's a big eater.

So thankful my son did not need to have a meal plan to live in the dorms this year. He ate two meals a day in his room, and one out somewhere. He is living on his scholarship Money and super frugal, he managed to save thousands this year in his bank account.
