		<title>4 Steps to the Lowest Price on All Online Purchases</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I would say that a majority of the purchases I make (outside of groceries) are made online. Why? Because I am almost always able to find what I&#8217;m looking for cheaper than any store offers it. I&#8217;m going to show you how. It&#8217;s a pretty simple strategy, but one I can almost guarantee you&#8217;re not using right now.
This strategy will save you a great deal of money for years to come! After you give it a read, try following the steps before you make your next purchase. Then share a ...]]></description>

		<title>What’s Your Credit Report’s GPA?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, let’s hear it! What kind of GPA does your credit report have? What?! You don’t know?! Well, do you know that what you do to your credit now will be as significant to your future finances as what you do academically will be to your career? 
While certain academic mistakes can be repaired after you find your focus and intellectually buckle down, repairing financial mishaps are not that easy. In fact, certain financial mistakes made during matriculation can take up to seven years to mend. So knowing your score ...]]></description>

		<title>Sustainable Living: Transportation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How you get around and off campus can directly impact your finances, health, and the planet. Here are some ideas on how to do so while keeping some change in your pockets.

Walk or bike when you can. (Actually, investing in a good bike is a good idea.) I understand that those of you going to a big school where it takes 30-40 minutes to walk across campus aren&#8217;t necessarily going to embrace this idea, but think about how much better shape you&#8217;ll be in as a result! You will also ...]]></description>

		<title>Sustainable Living: How Often Do You Do Laundry?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No, really &#8212; before you turn away in disgust, hear me out. First of all, there are many items that can be worn multiple times before you have to throw them in the wash (granted, this is assuming you don&#8217;t actually get them dirty, muddy, etc). These are items like pants, sweaters, jackets, towels, and those shirts you don&#8217;t really do anything in. If you find yourself washing these types of clothes every week, rethink your laundry habits! Of course there are some items that you can&#8217;t wear again (underwear ...]]></description>

		<title>Sustainable Living: Small Ideas to Save Money</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here are some ideas that will save you money and help the planet at the same time!

Don&#8217;t buy bottled water (or bottled drinks in general). So many bottles add up in landfills, and your wallet doesn&#8217;t appreciate forking out $30 a case every couple of weeks. That&#8217;s a lot of money! If you really can&#8217;t stand tap water, just get a filter. Although it still creates waste, it&#8217;s a lot better for the environment than bottles.
Actually, don&#8217;t buy disposable things in general. While there are exceptions to this rule, for ...]]></description>

		<title>Sustainable Living: The Project &#8212; Recycling</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the easiest things to take up in the effort to be more sustainable is to recycle. Most college campuses now offer at least somewhere to take your recyclable materials. My college actually provides several bins for recyclables in each living unit and academic building and collects everything at least once a week. Find out where on campus you can take your recyclable items and then do so!
Never throw away aluminum cans, plastic or glass bottles, newspapers, paper from class, cardboard from your cereal boxes, or any plastic that ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Don&#8217;t you just love when you&#8217;re cleaning your apartment or dorm room and you manage to find all kinds of stuff under the couch cushions? It could be money, pens, keys, or maybe even that credit card you&#8217;d been looking all over the place for. No matter what, it brightens your day just a bit. That&#8217;s the essence of what this weekly post will be about.

		<title>Sustainable Living: Get Some Plants!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the easiest ways to start incorporating sustainable living into your own life is to acquire a plant or two &#8211; which means you are literally going green. By making a couple of informed decisions, taking care of plants in your college room will be easy as pie. You can find plants very inexpensively (check out a farmer&#8217;s market, ask for a cutting of a neighbor&#8217;s plant, borrow one from your mom, find one on sale) and depending on what you get could save you money as well, like ...]]></description>
