The parents of freshman Sheila Anderson sighed in relief on Tuesday morning when they discovered that she had saved them hundreds of dollars by charging everything to her student fees account. Thanks to her money-consciousness, Anderson’s parents dodged having to deal with upcoming college expenses such as meals, parking passes and sports tickets completely.
When asked about the rising cost of higher education, father and mortgage broker Travis Anderson praised his daughter’s fiscally responsible behavior. “We have been setting aside thousands of dollars per month for her college fund since she was five, so it’s a lot of weight off our shoulders knowing we won’t have to use it now.”
Busy shopping in preparation for fall rush, Sheila Anderson could not be reached for comment on the situation. Shortly before press time, store managers were seen working to calm a visibly frustrated Anderson after explaining to her that Merge Boutique could not charge clothing purchases to a student fees account.
“Charge it to this then, it’s the same thing,” said Anderson, slapping down her mother’s Chase Sapphire Preferred card on the counter.
