[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn’t change our lifestyle but does give peace of mind for retirement and any emergency that could come up. Also we can afford any college for our kids. [/quote]

This is us.  We still do not travel first class...though we could.  I still shop sales at the grocery store.  How else do you menu plan???[/quote]

Why would you need to shop sales to menu plan? I just make what I want to make.[/quote]

Pretty sure that PP was being a bit tongue-in-cheek. But I often plan meal prep around what is on sale in the weekly Harris Teeter circular, and purposely buy what is on sale. And I could buy everything in the store if I wanted to. Why do I do this? Because I feel like it. We eat really well, we aren't wanting for anything because I buy things when they are on sale. I learned this kind of frugality from grandparents who had more money than God, but didn't waste it.[b] Midwestern values[/b], and all that. [b]How I grocery shop is about values[/b], not just access to money. It's just how I was brought up to do things. [/quote]

Frugality isn't a value. It's either a necessity or a character trait.[/quote]
