I iron a shirt to wear every day. Even the weekend. Every shirt has a collar and useful pockets. So old that I can't remember when I didn't.

This doesn't apply to anyone from upstaste New York because Wegmans is so superior to every other grocery store

Old? Ive been doing this since high school! Either you buy the stuff on sale or you eat ramen the next 2 weeks!

Ditto. Freezors exist for a reason.

Freezer stuff isn't always cheap either.

Agreed. Buying meat on sale then freezing it rather than buying it not on sale is a heck of a lot cheaper.

Bought a 32-pack of TP two days ago, since it was on the rare discount for that good brand when it's about 35% off per roll.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

They do that discount every few months on 32 or 40 packs, only in some stores. I wouldn't bother if it wasn't one of the high-quality brands

If you buy a single roll it signals you need to poop now, if you buy a 20 pack it signals you poop a lot.The trick is to find the sweet spot

I’ve lived in tiny apartments and literally had nowhere to store more than a few rolls. Or it was an emergency run for a cheap, single roll.
