  1. I used to order Hint water in 3-4 case a month subscription. Loved my fancy water 💦, but had to let it go. 😢 Also, Farmer’s Dog subscription for about a year, but it was a lot and the packs it shipped in was a huge ordeal to unpack and recycle. Now I just cook once a week a pack of chicken or ground turkey, carrots, blueberries, green beans, cauliflower rice, and any other foods which are dog approved I have on hand which costs only about $12 for the week. My dog loves it, and it’s just part of my grocery shopping.

  2. We stopped doing pizza delivery because it became outrageously expensive… we just keep a stack of inexpensive frozen pizzas in the fridge and add a fresh ingredient like chile or mushrooms and pop them in the oven. It is about 12-13 bucks for two pizzas that feed the entire family and literally take less time to throw in the oven than calling in an order… and less time to cut than answering the door

  3. Everytime the wife and I budget it comes down to "little treats" being in the way of starting the debt snowball. We started another budget talk, I'm leaving my debit card at home in my dresser except on the days I need gas and I am once again going to begin getting out of debt. I've been debt free twice and debt free but the house once. I can do it, I already have.
