I was cash poor. My newly found healthy shop club had a value pack that was 50% off so I “robbed Peter to pay Paul” to get that savings.
A few days later, I walked into Walmart with my list of normal product needs and one by one realized that “Nope, that is coming in the pack.”
I wonder how much money I have saved over 21 years by not even walking into a Walmart month after month. I was good at not buying something I would not use, but the point was: I was living fine without it before I saw it on sale at Walmart.
I don’t even spend gas (and time) by going to the curbside pickup.
