Meet Alex, a curious first-year student at the University of Waterloo, who recently moved to campus from a small town. With a knack for budgeting and a love for exploring local eateries, Alex often finds themselves puzzled by how some of their peers seem to have an endless supply of funds on their Watcards. They’re eager to learn the ins and outs of campus life, especially when it comes to managing expenses, and often engage in discussions with fellow students about practical money-saving tips.
