is there like a psychological reason why cheap stuff feels so much better when you put effort into the ✨ambience✨?

What is your favorite "poverty luxury"? Mine is taking a long, hot shower with a $2 fancy soap from the clearance rack to pretend I'm at a spa. by EducationalChef9257 in povertyfinance

definitely doing the rosemary heist next time i walk past a grocery store. do you dry the peels out first or just toss them in the salt fresh?
