McDonalds Double Cheese Burgers used to be $1 each not 6 months ago.  That was a fantastic deal.  Now they changed it to 2 for $3 because a lot of their customers don't realize they are now getting screwed.  Math is hard, you know.

aggieville pizza was crappy but really cheap. shuttle was better and still kinda cheap. two fer at bk was dece. also, i worked at maes and that pizza was horendous,  but it's impossible to argue free. hunams had egg roll and fried rice for like a buck twenty five. you could ask for xtra hot oil in the rice and after awhile they just started automatically putting it in for me. there was one guy who almost had it out for me. so hot, so good.

the best deal ever was the taco bell two buck lunch. when i was in highschool (mhs), there would be a small tbell coupon in the paper almost every week. it was called the two buck lunch and you got four tacos (crunchy or soft) and a medium drink (free refills) for $2. we would steal stacks of papers, cut out like twenty coupons and then basically live there.

yes, the line at the union would be very long on tuesdays but it was like a day's worth of food.  but at $2.99 wasn't really cheap either.

damn i forgot about that.  very difficult meal if you didn't have a car (mine died and never got fixed) but incredible value.

also forgot about the ville pizza hut's lunch deal on wednesdays- $2.99 for a personal pan pizza (1 topping) and $1 large sodas?  something like that.

They had 10 cent wings at Joe's (same place Tubby's is now) but they would limit you to 30. 50 cent tacos at porters is pretty good on thursdays. I just had a $1.75 cheesburger at purple pig last night which was muh, but for $1.75 you can't complain (also saw fitz there, he was eating with the gopowertard softball team, he even talked like he actually played which must be a lie because I'm pretty sure there's a weight limit).

The best coupon I ever got was for an absolutely free chinese meal from dillons that included two entrees and an egg roll or crab rangoon plus drink, all free, you can bet I made a zillion copies of that and went about every week the whole semester  :lick:

The back of the football tickets was always nice -- buy one get one free burrito supreme at the Bell (I think that's what it was anyway).  Late night Bell runs (following basketball at the rec) were a common occurrence for me as a student.

Good cheap options: Kreem kup, Q card thingie, BK for a buck, weekly special at Subway, the dozens of 10cent wing places, and best of all, free Sonic Burgers because some guy I knew had a stack of free Sonic Burger coupons taller than me (I think this guy is now in prison).

Bad cheap options: Anything at Rusty's.

SD, what was your favorite iteration where you bartended?  I once had a buffalo burger there, but I can't remember what the place was called then.

Aggie Station

I think that one was good.  :dunno:

I forgot to mention Aggieville Pizza and whatever that place was called before it became O'Malley's.  The pizza at both establishments was putrid.  I think AP had to be a front -- there were always shady types hanging around back, and no one but me and my bud would go in there to eat.  (We weren't all that bright.)  :beerchug:

Carryout Shuttle was the best.  :lick:

They may have been $.25 when I was there, I just remember them being crazy cheap and pretty damn tasty to boot.  Nothing like being able to get drunk and eat way too much for like 20 bucks.

The Ville hutt deal was $2.99 and was on wednesdays.  If you knew a certain elite group of 'Dians, you got soda but paid water prices.  They were known as "Mountain Waters" if you wanted Mtn Dew and "Pepsi Water" if....well, you get the deal.
