I'm practicing my "Graduate school budget" and I keep going about $100 a month over...and I have to start it for real next month! What are some budget tips you've discovered? Of course, I'm going over in the "food" and the "miscellaneous" categories!

Eat at home or bring your lunch/dinner whenever possible. My department goes out for free lunch/dinner as a group a couple of times a month, so I don't feel too deprived.

Or, you can do a monthly deal at Netflix.com for between $10-20/mo (depending on how many movies at a time you want), and they'll ship to your door. They have a two week free trial. They also ship fast and have a wonderful selection of movies.

With food, it helps to prepare your own lunch and bring it with you. Also a stepping stone to filling up your fridge without having it all go old and spoiled.
