I don't find the snacks any more expensive or beer or soda then if I would've bought them at the corner 7-Eleven. We still do take snacks and we can take something to drink with us at our courses but we prefer to buy it from the snack girl and give her a tip.
Just to be clear, you are talking about "back home" as opposed to in The Villages.

As for Executive courses that take a little more than an hour and a half to play, how hungry can you get? Those who have sugar issues are packing snacks, but many of us do "nine and dine", especially if we play in an established group. The lunch afterwards is half the fun for many of us. The water from the ambassadors and the cold water stations on the course are good and important especially in the hot weather and we usually take pop in our cooler too.
