I think our looking for bargains is part of what made us good at what we do. I'll drive myself nuts buying $5,000 or $6,000 worth of stock easier than I'll pay an extra $10 for meat I want that isn't on sale... and Emily asks before ordering $3.50 coffee that is $5 after tip and tax while not tasting half as good as the coffee I have at home for when we return... crazy! I went to facebook and didn't see charts?? The link worked for me... try this one that goes to a comment. facebook.com

Hi Bob, I took advantage of the covid to try shopping a lot less frugal. I'm single, live alone at the beach . So i figured i would do a trial run, of Instacart. Just in case i ever needed it in the future. It was way to easy and a lot more expensive. Not being able to pick through the manager specials. I found shopping the local kroger i was able to get everything on my list except 2 items. On the other hand the local Aldi was a bust. About one third of my order was substitute or cancelled items. It was worth the lesson for future refference to me.. Bernie
