A lot of students miss out on tons of government grants and low-interest loans because they never apply. Always fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, otherwise known as the FAFSA. It’s free to fill out plus you could qualify for some free money.

1-2 million families are qualified for the Pell Grant worth up to $4,000 per year but they miss out because they don’t apply for financial aid. Big mistake. Never turn down free money.

Deals uber-hacker, Yan of Pro Bargain Hunter, shows us how to get more than the usual bread or chips/salsa we snack on while we wait for our real food.  Most of these are appetizers but they’re usually enough to fill us up.  You might have to sign-up for crappy newsletters or take some surveys but I’ll do anything to save a buck or two.

Here’s a small subset.  Check out Yan’s post for the rest.

1. Noodles & Company has a free noodle dish.
2. Steak and Ale has a free free appetizer.
3. Macaroni Grill has a free appetizer.
4. Red Lobster has a free appetizer.
5. Buca di Beppo has free birthday dessert.

Fat food and fat wallets.  Now that’s what I’m talking about.
