[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the stupidest thing here is putting an actual $$$ amount. Is it ok at 425k? 475k? I fully agree with all the posters talking about recognizing individual costs.

At 500k (LOL) I'd still would never add guac/queso, but that's because I'm going to just get a quick meal and know it's not worth it. I will spend extra $$$ at places that are worth it, but Chiptole is definitely not one of them.

Also big shoutout to people making near 500k who still look at grocery prices. I would absolutely not buy something overpriced just because. I also will look at every price and never be like the poster just throwing it in the cart/basket without looking at the price before (please remind this to my wife who actually is the breadwinner overall).[/quote]

My goal in life is to maintain my income and wealth so that price will never ever be a factor in what I, my children, or grandchildren choose to eat. [/quote]

I'm the poster you are responding to. Even If I made 10x this, I'd still hate buying the exact same item for double the cost unnecessarily (eg planning ahead for a Costco run vs last min. worse brand at the local grocery store).[/quote]

I like that you got called out on your dumb comment and now you have to make an exaggerated example- double the cost, exact same item, no worse brand!, ability to plan ahead etc.

You got my point which is why you had to make up an example like you did. Nobody is saying pay twice the amount for a worse brand. [/quote]

If you just blatantly ignore the price of something how would you even know? That's the point - look at the price before just tossing it into the cart.[/quote]

I look at the price and buy it anyway. [/quote]

A fool and his money…[/quote]

I know it’s makes lots of you feel morally righteous to think that, but sad to disappoint. If you think avoiding nice food because of the price makes you smart or less of a fool, well I feel sorry for you. I don’t need to get worked up over groceries.[/quote]

Obviously you don't think it is foolish to look at prices and buy what you want without regard to whether there are less expensive options, even if they are identical. Others disagree, even ones who can easily afford to act like this. At the end of a year, I'd rather have that same amount of money saved for myself. You disagree. Perhaps you don't like the reference to "fool" in that saying, but it still applies. [/quote]

Well, if the burrito with the guac is identical to a burrito without guac, then I agree that it’s foolish to order guac.
