[quote=Anonymous]I enjoy spending a few hundred bucks on a nice date night with my s/o, but I cook most meals at home after shopping at Aldi, Food Lion and H-Mart. I just bought a bag of chicken leg quarters on sale for .69 a pound. Not only that I cut off all the back pieces and made a delicious meal of fried chicken backs.

I have a big, really nice house, but it’s in a much vastly less expensive exurb and I refinanced as interest rates dropped until I got to 1.875%.

I spent $20K on a home theater, but was thrilled to cut my internet bill by 70% when cutting the cord.  I buy 4K physical releases but only when on sale.

I enjoy buying an occasional designer clothes item, but buy most of my clothes online from Banana Republic and Brooks Brothers when they’re more than 70% off.  I also have started buying clothes at Target.

I have lots of nice furniture, but most of it came from Craigslist or FB marketplace.

I pay cleaners every other week, but I love yard work so I do it all myself.

I bought a new luxury car - 10 years ago and am still driving it, and will until it dies.

I love this thread and would have thought most people make these kinds of trade offs, but I have friends who give me serious crap for the things I save money on.[/quote]
