At my local grocery store, small packages of chicken breast are $3.60 a pound and large are $1.80. It literally costs the same to buy 4 lbs as 2. You bet I always get the 4lbs and some always goes to waste.

Freeze it and only thaw what you intend to use in a given meal.

As long as the far left espouses socialism and communism, it can potentially become a common political viewpoint.

Around the time for the Superbowl my local Safeway had a "buy 5 for $5" deal on soda 12-packs. Buying a single 12 pack was like $5 and I got 2 of them

The cashier along with the lady in front of me who was putting her money in her purse got on my ass about not getting 3 more packs to save money even after I told them it was gonna be split among just a few people. What fucking fat pos is gonna drink that much goddamn soda

grocery stores and restaurants, not individuals, are the big food-waste culprits

getting rid of bulk discounts would barely make a dent

It would lead to tighter inventory control in grocery stores.

Im looking at the half case of sprite still left over from 2 months ago. I only drink soda with alcohol

After the 5th to me of "are you sure" (not exaggerating) from the cashier I just told them to ring me up because I had places to go

Pretty sure TC is a Trump supporter rather than a socialist/communist
