Dorothy is a full-time college student finishing up her first year and plans to stay on campus this summer. It's her only option for housing right now, which will give her some stability. During the school year, she’s on a meal plan, but that won’t carry over into the summer, so she needs to figure out her own meals. To make the most of the food stipend she'll receive starting in May, Dorothy plans to utilize her budgeting skills to make smart grocery shopping decisions. She wants to cook her own meals to save money. However, she also hopes to treat herself and her friends to DoorDash every now and then when the craving hits!
