Just can not get past anyone ever, ever, ever paying $15,000 for a wedding photographer. Would never get near a bride that even suggested that, run run run run grooms!! A two-week honeymoon wouldn’t even cost that. Wow are people gullible and/or into themselves. Only thing worse is paying the same for a family

And don’t forget grocery stores, especially on meat. That chicken breast that is regularly $2.99 a pound suddenly is $5.99 a pound during the buy-one-get-one free sale. The “real” sale price is when it is $1.99 or less.

Same here, wish I got floride treatments after 18.

Thank you. Being frugal isn’t being cheap. In fact, it is the opposite. Frugal is all abut long-term value regardless of price. p.s. And thank you for putting things in after-tax values.

If you go down the hill faster you will require less acceleration (gas) at the bottom which does save gas, assuming there isnt a stop sign there.

Aldi’s and CostCo is a great shopping combination. Basic Produce at Aldi’s in 1/3 the price of regular grocery stores, 1/2 the price of grocery store sale prices, and 1/4 the price when on sale at Aldi’s. We simply eat twice as many vegetables now. House brands are excellent, like CostCo. 49 cent avacodo this week, 49

Now I’ll have more time to come to the decision that I really don’t want an item while it sits in my shopping cart awaiting the time I reach the free-shipping threshold. Will probably same me $100 a year. Thanks, Amazon!

Yum, just like McDonald’s!

The only way to easily peel them is to use older eggs. Fresh eggs will stick no matter what, older eggs (1-2 weeks) are easy to peel using any method. Stop chasing the impossible.

Did you even watch the whole video? They showed it unloading on people, looks like fun!

Best post ever!

One of the most useful posts EVER.

Cancel all newspapers and magazines. If you don’t see the crap you won’t want it. If you don’t know a sale is going on you won’t be tempted. Learn your triggers. To become really aware, take a Marketing 101 course to see all the tricks.

Best investment ever: a college Marketing 101 course. Stop allowing yourself to be manipulated.

It is amazing how much less you buy when you never look at a sales flyer, cancel all the tech-toys magazines, only get car magazines that everything is out of your price range, and stop going to malls. We also only go to above-diner-level restaurants when traveling, so many local bargain places for that once-a-week
