I spend more than $411 on food and incidentals for one person each month so I think this figure is terribly low and punitive.
I spend that on the family, not just one person. I don’t see how that’s so terribly low or punitive. Yes, the pantry and freezer are full and no, I don’t use coupons or have a Costco here. Haven’t bought clothes in ages and don’t eat out much. Why eat out when we can relax at home and for much less.
All I need is enough money to buy a roll of duct tape and a can of WD-40.
