<p>For the Easy Pay account, it says we can use money from there at on- and off-campus merchants, but does that include food places? Whereas the Food Only account is only for on-campus food?</p>

<p>It seems like the answer is obvious, but I just don't see much purpose for there being a "Food Only" account in the first place, unless it's for parents who want their kid to spend some money only on food.</p>

<p>If I have a meal plan and stick to the alloted swipes, I don't need to have money in the "Food Only" account at all, correct?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Food only meal plans are only for places on the hill. Easy pay works just like a preloaded debit card w/ no chance of overdrafts and can be used anywhere on campus and at a bunch of places in westwood.</p>

<p>Do we use the Easy Pay acct for laundry as well? (I’m in Hedrick Summit, if that makes a difference.)</p>

<p>^ Yes. How else would you pay for laundry? Coins are only used in Dykstra.</p>
