Getting the muchies - save money

So when I was in first year, I used to engage in activities that made me very hungry and crave chocolate, cake, crisps and other food 

Inevitably, we'd all go and spend a fortune at the vending machines.
It really is so much cheaper to buy multipacks from the supermarket, corner shops just charge so much - daylight robbery.
I haven't done it for years now, my lungs are much healthier, but strangely I eat more and weight the same, if not more. God knows how I used to eat so much and never gain weight.
Also, chances are if you don't get the muchies, many of your mates will
for drinks
e.g. can of Coke - 50p
Sainsburys - £3 offer or 2 packs of 6 - so 25p each!
that's 200% more expensive, for the exact same product. Buy in bulk!
