What happens if I don't use all my meals?

By Allen Grove, About.com

Question: What happens if I don't use all my meals?
Answer: This varies from school to school, but often unused meals are money lost. Depending on the plan, the credit for unused meals may disappear at the end of the week or the end of the semester. You’ll want to check your balance frequently -- some schools have small grocery stores where you can spend the money from unused meals.
