What food do you bring/How do you save money?

Last year one of my hotel buddies and I went to Trader Joe's pre-con to get some healthy snacks for the room. Best idea ever. TJ's has great healthier options, like their lowfat cheese poofs! :D Mostly I was excited to have dried fruit, beef jerky, and the like in the hotel. Also important: a case of bottled water so you can always grab one before you head out into the con. :) I also like to have a Luna bar or something similar in my bag.

It's always logical to try and save money and bring your own food, but I hope some people would spend a dinner or a lunch and explore DTSJ and see all the new stuff that is available now. San Pedro Square has tons of fantastic places to eat and are priced very fairly. There's also Original Gravity on South 1st St. if you're in the mood for gourmet sausages, duck fat fries, and tons of craft beer (You don't need to be 21 to dine there).
