    I have friends that talk about getting food delivered nearly daily, plus groceries and whatnot. I am so frugal it makes my asshole pucker to think about delivery fees PLUS them getting your order wrong so often PLUS the food is cold and takes way longer than simply driving there. And then in addition, we actually need the human contact. But I’m not gonna criticize my friends to their faces. Just here.

      For me the best part of doing groceries yourself are the food expiring markdowns. I get so many meats and interesting things I could usually never afford by getting stuff that is going to expire that day.

      Case in point, scored this 5 minutes ago, add some cheap sides and dinner sorted

      That seems backwards to me, I would absolutely tell my friends if I thought their life choices were harmful.
