I thought I'd save money on food when I moved into a house near a Costco, but moving into the house changed my food expenses in a different way

We spend more money feeding friends now that we have a safe area for people to hang out

We started buying food and drinks each time a guest would come over — and that's where the food expenses started to pile up. Yes, friends often bring a side dish or drinks of their own. But as the hosts, we naturally fell into the habit of providing the main course and/or the beverages, which are typically the two most expensive parts of any backyard get-together.When I saw the numbers we spent on food in the last month, my stomach flipped. I was raised to be frugal and am usually careful with my money.

But after a couple hours, I relaxed. I'm no longer upset I'm spending more on feeding my friends and myself right now, and I've decided not to make strict plans to change my habits, at least not yet.

As long as they have millions of stupid people giving them their data for free, they will be just fine. Not using facebook is the only way to get rid of the evil influence of facebook. FB could care less about a few 'woke' global corporations and consumers too. Someone else will fill the void.
