It’s that time of year again – the holidays.
Perhaps better known as the time of year when we college girls have to stretch our pockets as far as possible in order to be the wonderful gift givers we try so hard to be.
Not to mention we have to remain warmly dressed, feed ourselves, and we would still like a social life.
Never fear! With the Her Campus holiday hook-up you might just keep your purse full as ever.
Holidays Celebration Savers –
Try a party at home instead of hitting the bars. Make it BYOB and avoid the pricey drink costs and cover at the bar.
Need to get out?
Make sure to check out the East Lansing Bars Website before heading to Grand River or anywhere else. The website includes all specials and the best prices in the area so you can make the smartest bar choice.
Another great resource for barhopping specials is MSU’s “The Black Sheep” bar grid.
