to eat.
You know what I mean.
There’s lettuce.
There’s cheese.
There’s half an onion.
There’s some turkey.
There’s mustard.
There’s bread.
There’s three sauces.
There’s something in a container you don’t remember putting there.
Technically, you have food.
But none of it feels like a meal.
And now you’re standing in front of the refrigerator thinking:
“I could make something.”
Instead, you order food.
Now you’ve spent money on groceries and dinner.
That’s when the “cheap groceries” strategy starts looking a little less impressive.
