Well, time is something you never get back.

This. I literally assemble meals piecemeal. Do I have protein? Do I have vegetables? Do I have carbs? What flavourings? That an ordering my shopping online have been my biggest money AND time saver. I can complete my food shopping in about ten minutes and get it delivered the next day.

The number of people that will spend $10,000 on flights and accommodation but then ruin their holiday by penny pinching on meals is mind boggling.

I once found two bottles of Clamato juice in my mother’s cupboard. When I asked her why, she said they were buy one get one free. I told her if you don’t want the first bottle, getting the second one free is not a bargain. Side note, around this time Clamato juice advertised “Now with less clam!” on its label.

I think someone needs to revise the XKCD “Is It Worth the Time” chart for dollars: http://xkcd.com/1205/

I’ve periodically tried to use coupons but I’ve given that up because, honestly, it’s not worth the time and not worth paying for a paper in order to get manufacturers coupons. The only time I use coupons now is if I get an online coupon to a clothing store or something along those lines. I do shop sales at the

TV dinners and the like seem to be common fodder for coupons. I think that might be largely due to how insane the per-unit markup is on them. They are by and large not wholesome meals.

Guess her coupon game just wasn’t raw enough.

I like the subtly cruel slashes that conjoin living with sleeping and kitchen with dining.

I’m going to have to argue with the characterization of that closet.

I have a friend who writes for the Times, and is always putting up Facebook posts like “Have you used x product? Did it give you a rash? Let me know if I can quote you”

In any event, Huberman found one that she liked that was within her budget—or her father’s, really.

Aha, yet another inspiring success story in the Trump mold.

They should really caption that photo with her as the "buyer".

I’m insanely curious about how the Times finds these people. No one would be so tone deaf as to volunteer themselves for this, would they?

Hmm

It’s the tile.

Even rich millennials have to get help from their parents to buy a home. We’re fucked.

I see that normcore is still hip in the Billburg.(Is calling it Billburg still “on point”?)
