The goal being to help college students at colleges and universities across the country fight high costs by offering discounts on everything from textbooks and student loans.Today, CollegeBudget is moving more aggressively into local offers, particularly around food. For hungry, cash-strapped students, food discounts can be extremely appealing, especially when one of the alternatives is the school's cafeteria. That's why the startup is today announcing that it is acquiring Y Combinator-backed Munch On Me, a food discovery portal that connects people with great good at affordable prices from local restaurants.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/WKXnI6eB05U/
