I literally never buy junk food but am hosting some friends next week. Also I did my shopping while drunk so there are some questionable purchases. Nothing will go to whaste though.

It's an incredibly toxic chemical solvent that's used to "clean" carpets (i.e. disinfect and dissolve oils etc). I try to do a deep clean once a year or so and as I mentioned above I'm hosting some peepce next week so it's a good time to refresh the place.

The stuff is super toxic though so you basically need to spray the carpeting and leave the house for the day with all the windows etc open.

anon the regular retail value of all that shit was $340 but I saved $90 by capitalizing on specials, sales, and twofers.

The real hidden expenses in there are my multivitamins and probiotics, which even on sale I think were like $70 just for the two of them. It's something I buy only 2-3 times a year.

I have a good job and I worry not about money. Wasting money annoys the fuck out of me though because I'm not a lunatic. I did this shopping online, so it's easier to look at everything you need for this week, and things you'll need sometime in the next month, and things you'll need eventually, to see if any of it is half off etc. And you just go through your saved list of shit and collect the ones that are a good deal at the moment and everything you check again next time.

all of that stuff is useful (except the junk food but I had a transgression I guess).

mutlivitamins and probiotics are snake oil for most people unless you need them - my doc suggested i take them due to some digestive problems caused by massive doses of antibiotics I was given when my appendix went gangrenous.

I regularly obsess over things I want to purchase for months before pulling the trigger because I want to get the best possible value for my money because I grew up in poverty despite having plenty of money in the bank, and I do check what I'm buying at the store to make sure I'm getting the best value within reason, but I have not paid any attention to my total grocery bill in at least 10 years and 10 years ago I was working part time at GameStop.

That's not distilled water anon, it's mineral water.
If you drink distilled water it pulls minerals out of your body.
If you drink a few litres of ultra-pure water, a step up from distilled you'll die a shit death.
Also just buy a fucking brita jug for $15 from big w and you'll get thousands of litres of filtered water.

it is actually distilled water, it doesn't have minerals and it's perfectly safe to drink.
