    Also if you are walking to the store, you are limiting the amount you can buy as you have to transport it back home. I have a nice little collapsible cart I use. Even that fills up and gets heavy once you are adding beverages.

        REMEMBER THE ONLY WAY TO BE FRUGAL IS TO NEVER DO ANYTHING THAT BRINGS YOU PLEASURE, OR EAT ANYTHING BUT BEANS/RICE AND DRINK ONLY WATER.

        This is what people who say shit like that sound to folks who know that life is not meant to just be survived, but enjoyed.

          Tbh, most beverages you get at stores have way to much sugar for my taste. But the quality of tap water also varies wildly around the world. I wouldn’t drink it as much if I lived in a place where it was chlorinated.

      True, you’re definitely missing out on a lot of bulk items, especially when you’re living in a smaller apartment and don’t even have the space to store 10 pound bags. And you pretty much have to go to the store multiple times a week.
