[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On a recent trip we stopped at a local grocery store to buy a picnic lunch. It cost $50 for the two of us.[/quote] Unless you literally got a loaf of bread and like 1/4 pound of meat and cheese to go on it that’s what a picnic lunch pretty much always ran for 2. Everyone thinks a picnic lunch is a cute cheap date-when actually unless you made sandwiches at home and just brought them to a park to eat it’s just as expensive if not more than going out to lunch. It’s also economies of scale-a picnic lunch is actually going to be more expensive for 2 than it would be for 4. All those cute little prepared foods and condiments add up super quick when it’s only for 2 people. This is just not a good example. Also “local grocery store” implies one of those non chain fru-fru grocery stores that have always been overpriced since the beginning of time. [/quote]
