No big deal right?

All that is 7 Eleven/Dominos/Burger King/Arby's purchases.

What a fvcking waste.

Anyone else "eat out" a lot? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Thats why I eat cheap food

There are people who eat out regularly spendin an average of probably 10 bucks a night on dinner...so in a month there's $200+ you could've spent on something you'd still be able to enjoy...(assuming you still would need food obviously...but say you ate 3 bucks a night instead...)

and people complain about gas prices..

From March 18th - April 14th I spent $200.85

That's in just pure bullshit eating out, like ice cream bars at 7-Eleven, lunch at Wendy's, milkshakes at Wendy's, etc. I think that's horrible. I should easily be able to cut that in half, I'd be banking $1200+ a year that way.

That's NOT including food purchases at Wal-Mart. That's basically junk that I put in my body, because I'm too lazy to cook a sandwich or the like.

I fail at life.

Same here, I easily spend $9 a day eating the shit food at work. That's $27 a weekend, or $108 a month, or $1296 a year, on junk at work.

I'm going to get direct deposit at work, and start a second checking account, and use it as a savings account, and cut up the card. $150 every 2 weeks to that account, and $100 every 2 weeks in stock. That should help me save up some money.

If it really bothers you, then manage your money a little bit wiser... i spend about 25 a week on food, easy.
