My neighbor swore she feeds her family of 4 on $50 a week and I called her out on it

She showed me her meal plan and receipts from Aldi and I realized I've been wasting money on pre-cut veggies and name brand spices. Is she actually eating well or just lying to herself about enjoying bland food?

Dude same thing happened to me. I was dropping $80-90 a week for just myself and my kid because I was buying all that pre-washed bagged salad and fancy pasta sauce. Switched to whole veggies and store brand stuff and it tastes exactly the same.

Oh, isn't that the truth. My neighbor has been buying those meal kit boxes every week, you know the ones where everything is measured out already. Then I realized I was spending twice as much as she was just to avoid chopping a few onions.
