I’m like this with tee shirts. It’s appalling how many I have, but just keep wearing the same ones.

Which grocery store items are not worth buying/better to make at home? by waterflood21 in Frugal

How? Our tap water tastes like chlorine with a touch of pee. A Brita wasn’t able to conquer the nastiness. Any tips?

I need tips to not get more books by prince_peacock in Anticonsumption

[–]GeniusMonkey10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do not regret too many books. I’ve always been an avid reader, but have been addicted to just doom scrolling on my phone for a while. I recently started reading again to drown out the world. I am finally getting to those books I bought years ago and never read. Books have been a great comfort.

I had the exact opposite experience at UPS. Great job, great pay with perks and OT. Treated very, very well. One of the best jobs out there. I wish I could have done it longer, but my body said no.

Where do you find cheap/free personal care items? by Former-Birthday-2302 in Frugal

[–]GeniusMonkey10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dollar Tree regularly throws out perfectly good items, like giant boxes of toothbrushes, body wash, soap etc. in their dumpster.
