    Go in with some buddies and get a Sams Club or Costco membership.

    Scour local grocery flyers and stock up when you find a good deal.

    Pilfer from the dining halls if you can.

    Trader Joe's is your friend.

    Angel Food Ministries is meant for poor people, but you can get a decent box of meat and dry goods for like $25 bucks a month.

    And face it... you're going to be eating a lot of PB, tuna, oatmeal, and eggs. Cheap, easy, and clean. Usually you'd have to settle for two of those three adjectives.
    Sketchy Dude Outside Museum: "Yo, I'm selling candy for my basketball team..."
    Boyfriend: "No thanks, dude."
    SDOM: "You sure you don't want one for the pretty lady?"
    Ives: "The pretty lady doesn't eat candy. That's how she got so pretty."

    dude in your case if you want cheap and effective meal plan stick to the basics
    you really don't need to spend a s*** load on supps because majority of the time they are a big waste of money.I think that the only supplements that are worth buying are bcaa,whey protein, and creatine. But, whole foods will give you the best results.

    here is what you need:

    eggs
    oatmeal
    leafy greens
    2% reduced fat milk
    cottage cheese
    chicken breast tenderloins (Bulk Bag)
    peanut butter
    sweet potato
    apples
    bananas

    here are some easy meal ideas:

    breakfast:
    6 egg whites
    2 whole eggs
    1 1/2 cups of oatmeal

    mid-morning snack:
    1 cup cottage cheese
    2 tbsp all natural pb

    post workout:

    whatever whey protein you prefer i personally am a fan of monster milk and i eat it with 1 apple/banana

    lunch:
    4 chicken breast tenderloins
    2 cups leafy greens
    1 medium sweet potato

    mid evening snack:
    1 1/2 cups oatmeal
    1 scoop whey protein
    1 apple/banana

    dinner:
    4 chicken breast tenderloins
    2 cups leafy greens
    1 medium sweet potato

    bed-time snack:
    1 1/2 cups 2% reduced fat milk
    1 tbsp all natural pb

    well there you go hopefully i gave you some good ideas
    *oh and by the way this is the foods i eat when on i am gaining mass but my meal plan isn't exactly setup like this

    When i was at uni i used to get 5KG of chicken for 17GBP (not sure in USD), i used to bag it up and freeze it. Its best buying ur meat in bulk from a butcher rather than a supermarket butcher.
