[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s pretty funny that people are tossing around numbers like $60 and $100 for appliances as though these numbers are somehow insignificant to people that are living paycheque to paycheque. It’s insignificant to DCUM, but not to those where that may be a huge portion of their food budget for the entire month. [/quote] Again, you aren’t familiar with the poor. There are lots of surveys that give information like this. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 90% of households have a microwave. For those that don’t, they are often given away through agencies or Free Cycle, sold cheap at garage sales or thrift stores, etc. Poor people spend lots of money on stupid things too… [/quote]
