Things I DO Cheap Out On
That I feel guilty about:
- Flights / Travel
- Groceries
- Anything that goes in my bathroom other than toilet paper
- Pens
- Clothes
That I do on purpose:
- Furniture
Love it!

Scotch tastes like I’m drinking dust, but then again I’ve never had good scotch.
I tend to cheap out on things that can perform just as well when cheaper but not on something where price noticeably effects quality.
