[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cut out trips to both Target and Costco. I get everything from Amazon, Google Express, or Instacart. The amount I save from not buying impulse stuff far outweighs what I pay for subscriptions and markups (probably just by cutting out one trip TBH). I know which sites have the best prices on what I buy as well.

I only go to an actual store for produce and sometimes meats, and that's a regular grocery store.[/quote]

I feel like subscription fees are a funny way to manage impulse control. [/quote]

The subscription fees have many benefits beyond this, but simply from a dollars standpoint, I spend less money. I didn't decide to sign up for Amazon Prime and Google Express to control impulses, I did it to save time and wasn't concerned about saving money. It was after my shopping habits changed I noticed how much less I was spending and how much stuff I thought I needed that I did not. Now I'm very good about not buying too much stuff, whether in a store or online, AND I don't have to schlep to the burbs to get what I do need.[/quote]
