What Grinds Our Gears: Nesters Market

By: Meghan Light, Peak Associate

You know those moments when you’re on campus, you’re super busy, and you need groceries? Or the times when you need a quick snack after class? It’s too bad that Nesters is so damn expensive that you regret needing anything at all.

They’re 10/10 for exploiting students who don’t have the time, energy, or mental capacity to shop somewhere else.
