Is $11-$12 (total) too much to spend on food for a 5 day week?

[UNT Eagles 2016]

I do like to enjoy myself so I'm thinking of going to Olive Garden tonight... Here's my week in review:

Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday


Breakfast: 7-8 a.m., Turkey and cheese sandwich on wheat bread, bag of raisins, bag of carrots -- all free from food pantry
Lunch: 1-2 p.m., lunch with employee discount, $1.17 after tax
Supper: Grapes, oats, carrots, and/or yogurt using milk from food pantry -- all free


Wednesday


Everything the same, except for the deluxe lunch... $2.15 after tax


Friday


Breakfast: 7-8 a.m., Turkey and cheese sandwich on wheat bread, bag of raisins, bag of carrots -- all free from food pantry
Lunch: None (get off work at 2pm)
Dinner: Olive Garden (Unlimited Zuppa Toscana/Minestrone Soup, $5.95 after tax, plus water -- free)


Total: $11.61 for five-day week


Should I try to cut back on splurging or should I go out and enjoy today? Hmm....

[UNT Eagles 2016]

damn it, I forgot to add 2 jugs of Kool Aid... each jug is a gallon old Gatorade container from 2014 that I make Koolaid out of a packet but I water it down to make 3 gallons out of each 25 cent packet... I'll have drank about 2 of these for 6 total gallons this week.. so tack on an extra 50 cents so it's actually over $12 :(

How the fuck are you getting food from the food pantry if you are employed?

[HarlemHeat37]

I try to keep my groceries budget to $250 per month(for myself, no kids), tbh..

Holy shit that's a lot money!! That's about $8.35 a day...

[UNT Eagles 2016]

How the fuck are you getting food from the food pantry if you are employed?

I volunteer there sometimes and the volunteers divvy up the leftovers, which is typically a lot.

[HarlemHeat37]

Holy shit that's a lot money!! That's about $8.35 a day...

It used to be a lot worse when I would eat out at least 4 times a week:lol

I easily go over $350 per month when I'm bulking, tbh..

why would you buy Koolaid when you have access to the food bank? So they have extra grapes there but not Koolaid packets?

[koriwhat]

what does your jamaican girlfriend say

she wants to see me today but I half want to drive over there and half want to break up... it's 33 miles to fucking Irving and my car has 196.4k miles and a broken right turn signal

[Aztecfan03]

to be fair, grapes are perishable and will get thrown away if nobody eats them. Koolaid packets aren't.

When Mason lived here this computer was in the front room so every once in awhile in passing he'd goof around on sites I was posting on, he thouht it afunny. He messed with that dummy Blake for awhile, but.....he's not really into this sitting around hassling people, running everyone ya cdown and acting like an asshole because ya can get away with it.

He doesn't live here anymore and doesn't even own a computer, he says..."it's boring".

I try to keep my groceries budget to $250 per month(for myself, no kids), tbh..


Holy shit that's a lot money!! That's about $8.35 a day...

No it isn't.

Every day, I drink a bottle of Simply Orange, Simply Apple, or some other real Juice that costs over $3 a bottle. I have two Maria Calender dinners, 5 days a week at work for lunch. I eat high qualities cereal and whole milk for breakfast, and three eggs at over $4 a dozen. These are range free eggs, no hormone, etc off course. We shouldn't forget the restaurant quality bacon I buy. We shouldn't even speak of what I spend for dinner.

Oh...

I buy snacks from Nature's Bakery for more energy at work.

I buy non GMO foods and local when possible.

[Wild Cobra]

i wish i could budget like yall... damn! $20+ a day on food for just myself but i go and eat at restaurants everyday so that's that.

The restaurants I eat at would cost me at least $75 a day if I did that... with tip... Minimum. I usually spend more, but only go to restaurants on dates.

[Wild Cobra]

why would you buy Koolaid when you have access to the food bank? So they have extra grapes there but not Koolaid packets?

I think it's wrong to take food from a food bank, unless you are one who it is intended for.

[benefactor]

So salty.

I just take the facts given and point out the inconsistencies. Unless he cleaned toilets there, it's pretty safe to assume that someone who worked at a computer place had a job that dealt with computers at some level...and it makes zero sense for him to not own one at all...especially a kid in his 20's.

Again, it's your story. You getting all salty about not being able to keep your internet life narrative straight is no one's problem but your own.

After stopping by AutoZone to fix the lightbulb issue in the car... we actually ended up going to Red Lobster last night, by Cowboys red river... about $23 after tax, forgot the tip, it was a VERY puny piece of salmon for what we paid for. The sides were good as always, and I tried to convince her into either the Admiral's Feast, Create your Own Combination, or Endless Shrimp, as all those are better deals by far, but she had her heart set on salmon so I got us salmon.

On the bright side after I took her back to my place we did cuddle together and I got to eat her out for about an hour this morning and we showered together and went out and saw the realtor/houses together. So pretty good bang for my buck. Overall, counting everything including gas so far, our weekend date/vacation between me and my lovely fiancé has cost me about $44.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

UPDATE: Holy shit my wife is an amazing cook!!! We literally had nothing in the house other than lunchmeat, rice, a can of beans, and some dried spices and an onion... she just made something INCREDIBLE out of nothing!! I'm so soooooo lucky I met her... don't know if all Jamaican women can cook this tremendously well but mine is sure amazing!! I love her

Glad I make more than that!

People don't realize that if you are responsible for the future, $60+k jobs really don't give you much more daily spending power. If you contribute the maximum on retirement savings, you are also lucky if you only spend less than $200 monthly on medical, dental, etc. You are taxed at a marginal rate of 1/3rd or more of your income for FICA and federal taxes. Don't forget state tax...

I get to keep 58.35% of any extra money I make. The 41.65% is taxed away. 25% federal, 7.65% FICA, and 9% state. It is easy to make mortgage payments or rent a place along with a car payment and credit debt chewing up most of what one makes.

Never forget. The more you make, the more you want and spend.

DMC, your attitude is one of who is either very good with money, or simply doesn't make the extra income to know the facts.

Someone who brags incessantly about his 2 year stint in "high tech" back in the 90's shouldn't be giving financial advice.

But, do you have any dating advice? Something that would impress this girl I haven't met face to face yet? Something that shows her I am a savant and that she could be in danger? I'm out of ideas.

I spend a lot on produce (esp. fruit), red meats, the chef prepared shit from Central Market etc. probably almost $1000 in total on food every month, but I also work 70+ hours a week and make $120k.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

So I end up spending $128 over the weekend... fml. But on the bright side I did get my Jamaican beauty for the long weekend and got to make love to her twice and eat her out 4 times.

Right but not my point. I've volunteered at 2 different food banks. First of all, grapes are pretty rare as far as an item that gets sent from a grocery store to the food bank. Second of all, when they do, they will get picked up very quickly by those in need. Believe it or not, a large part of the intended recipients do want fresh fruit and vegetables. Especially fruit. So either UNT is lying or he's taking food that was still supposed to be given out.

And that is everybody's problem, isn't it? No single person making 70+k should be making car payments... or student loans, or credit cards, etc. Just because you can afford the minimum payments on something doesn't mean you have to buy it. Live below your means, pay your shit off, and come up with some fucking cash before you make another purchase.

NW Plano unfortunately is way more expensive than Dallas. You can't find a taqueria that serves a $6.99 3-beef enchilada plate with arroz and frijoles around here -- they're everywhere back home, of course. What you will find is "elegant" eateries that charge $25 for a fucking burger or "artisan" personal pizza.

I hear you about Red Lobster. But if you're saving in other areas, it's nice to go out and get a good seafood dinner once in a while. I'll usually shove about 10 Cheddar Bay Biscuits in my wife's purse before we even begin dining. And one of us will order whatever all you can eat special they have going and fill up some Tupperware containers.

It's expensive but you can make last for several meals.
