beef jerky
but i've started making my own so that helps with the cost

>>12438151
i forgot beer
it's actually probably beer

tendies

>>12438146
Bangs are dirt cheap here. Usually less than $2 each.

Probably frozen vegan patties. I think morning star makes them. I really like them, even though they don't taste anything like meat.

>>12438146
Taco bell

beer for me. luckily i'm losing interest in the taste and sticking to liquor.

>>12438146
Used to be booze. Couple handles of whisky and some 6 packs of IPAs a week cost me probably like $400-500 a month. God I was an idiot.

coffee

>>12438146
fast food in general.

>>12438146
how many a days? I used to work at a grocery store and the butcher accross the street would buy like six every morning before opening. ANd hobos switched these over beer in their priority list (no shitting you if they cant afford both they take the monster)

and my expensive habit is porn
it's not food and I pirate it but it cost me a love life a carreer and friends
so yeah pretty expensive

>>12438179
1-2 a day
It's not much compared to more hardcore drinkers but it adds up and is definitely expensive over time.

>>12438175

Based drunk poster.

>>12438146
Kombucha I could drink gallons of it a day if I could afford to

>>12438199
I've cut down significantly and I'm booze free 5-7 days a week, I wish I cut down a couple years ago. Those teetotaler AA "I HAVE A DISEASE" cunts are weak. Learn some discipline you 2 ply bitch.

>>12438206
You know you can make it at home, right?

>>12438206
just make it

beer
ordering sushi
I used to get a toasted poppy seed bagel with lox and cream cheese and a 44oz iced coffee almost every weekend and that was around 14$

I've cut back since then thankfully

Local burger joint that makes the best burgers i have ever had
I always spend 15$+ everytime I go there like the fatass I am

>>12438146
Cheese. I'm addicted to the stuff and it's becoming quite a problem for my wallet.

>>12438266
When I lived in Denver there was a dive bar around the corner that did the best burgers and they had $5 burgers every Tuesday. You could get a fantastic local beef burger with some toppings, a couple beers and some kind of side for like $20. I miss that place.

>>12438146
Flour cheese and charcuterie. Easily flour and cheese though. I buy expensive flours and make new loafs every week I’m about to go and buy another Dutch oven. At this point though I recognize this as a regular hobby in my life and subtract the costs of flour from my other hobbies like video games and motorcycles.

>>12438274

What cheese do you indulge on?

I eat out once every weekend but even then I usually keep it 30 bucks or under
Rest of the week I mostly make my meals at home and dont really have any expensive snacking habits
Even when I get drunk I choose the bottom shelf vodka you can get for like 13 bucks a handle

pizza delivery when I don't feel like cooking adds up, but aside from that, frozen meals for work lunches.

beer by far, followed by coffee.

>>12438146
>energy drinks
Good job falling for the meme. Say goodnight to your kidneys if diabetes doesn't get you first.

>>12438146
Eating or drinking out. Home meals I prepare go from 50¢ for simple eggs and toast to 9 bucks for a half pound steak and asparagus. Going anywhere is going to be at least 6 bucks and I'll spend as much as 30 on a single meal every now and then. Drinking goes from 10.99 handle vodka (admittedly with about twice that cost after mixers) to ten bucks for a high abv sixer to 22 bucks for a handle of bourbon. Going out I try to hit specials for 2-4 bucks per shot or beer but that adds up when you can hold your drink.

I'm usually only going out with my roommate who I see all the time already although I've got bar friends I socialize with. I could cut 100 bucks a week easily. That's fucking 5 grand a year.

Vodka, even tho it’s taaka there is just soo much of it
Also Kroger sushi, because it’s close to my work I eat too often but it’s relatively expensive compared to fast food or packed lunch

>>12438536
>Vodka
>When it's literally like 3 dollars for 750 ml

how much were you drinking man

>>12438546
it’s 4.25 a pint here and I drink one a day, that adds up to being like an extra car payment or phone bill every month

>>12438536
>grocery store sushi

>>12438573
Please consider drinking less.

>>12438617
nah the Kroger is in a hipster strip mall and they have a kiosk with a chef in the middle making it in front of you. It’s legit but like I said expensive

>>12438146
Alcohol.

>>12438146
>Energy Drinks

Those are heart attacks in a can. At least have the more moderated sodas. If they don't bloat you up that is...fucking strawberry lemonade sunkist.

>>12438753
Hmm my location has only chicks making the sushi. Why do you hate gators?

>>12438546
Where's Taaka that cheap?
It and McCormick are both $8.99/750mL here (Georgia) and that's the absolute cheapest alcohol you can buy.

Probably cheese or wine. Neither are actually problematic for my life or budget, but I get more spendy with them than I do some other items.

Sushi. Fucking American restaurants overpricing it.

>>12438546
it's $14-$15 for 750ml here

Luckily thanks to 4C energy packets my caffeine cost is down to 44¢/day. Cigarettes $2.50/day. Food roughly $10/day. Beer $6.50 a day.

>>12438807
I’m Ga too. My liquor store put up signs about iTaaka being the “Number 1 selling spirit in Georgia” and I was proud cause I’ve been drinking it for so long. But it’s atleast 4 for a pint, 7.90 for a half and 12$ for a full bottle,

>>12438929
You're not taking in account all the expensive health care you either already need or will need in the future. Smokers are gross.

>>12438146
Tipping. I wish I was a nigger (but just for the times I go out and want to pay less).

Alcohol.

kombucha. the good local shit is six bucks a pop. more than craft brew

>>12439003
healthcare will be free soon who cares.

>>12439645
Pffff no it fucking won't.

>>12439616
>if you can't afford to tip
How about if your employer pays you less than minimum wage, your job fucking sucks and you need to find better employment. I travel a bunch and don't tip unless the service was exceptional. I can live with it.

>>12439718
servers in my state get minimum wage and still get tips

>>12439722
That's great, but "mandatory" tipping can suck a nut.

marijuana.

$40 eighth gone in 2days

>>12438146
used to be beer but since I quit drinking it's probably coffee or fast food

>>12440020
>$40 eighth

>>12438146
I drive to Walmart at midnight to buy Halo Top.

>>12438846
$27+ in leafland
I pay minimum $15 for 350ml of the cheapest swill available.

500ml Monster cans and sandwiches at my uni, fuck this shit is expensive but there's no grocery store anywhere close to it.

>>12438146
Probably free range organic eggs. They cost 2-3 times as much but god damn do they taste good.

>>12438146
For me, its drinking Scotch like Talisker 10

Cherry juice. At least based Aldi sells a big glass bottle of it for $5.

I use a lot of saffron.

I order a jimmy johns sandwich delivered to my house every day of every week. I spend well over 500 dollars on just jimmy johns sandwiches.

>>12438146
I eat hearty filling food.

which doesn't sound bad but I can put on a couple pounds just from looking at a Mars bar and given that I'm trying to lose weight and pay for a gym membership it makes things pretty fucking pricy when you are paying for more food that you are inevitably going to burn off. out eating the exercise you do is an expensive job.

I eat so many potato chips

im NEET on welfare so probably olives, they're just so good I have to get a big jar whenever I shoppe.

milk. i spend almost 100 a month on it. i drink it as if its water.

>>12440020
vape it then cook the abv. thank me later.

I eat a lot of frozen pierogi

>>12438151
>>12438157
Combine both into one expensive habit.

>>12443165
God do I wish you could bottle and ship your farts to me. The smell must be divine...

>>12443165
Absolutely based, I would do the same if I could

assuming you're not referring to booze, this stuff. it's expensive (like 5-6 bucks a pop expensive), but it's heavenly. the chick who makes it is pretty hot too.

If we're including booze then Laphroaig.

>>12438175
people always forget to include the cost of obesity, brain damage, liver damage, etc when talking about how expensive booze is. prob twice the amount you have there.

>>12438146
Ordering shit off of Uber eats instead of cooking

>>12438159

raising cane's is irresistible

and publix sammies

>>12443165
Gods, I bet this man is strong.

>>12438146
I take my girlfriend out to eat like twice a week, typically one takeout cheap meal (like gyros or tacos) and one sit-down meal. Thankfully we don't order beverages when we go out, but it's still expensive.

>>12438146
Use to be fast food and liquor, but I realized how terrible it was for me and I've since cut back. I've only bought two bottles of vodka in the last 6 months.

Imitation crab. I make gumbo, pastas, and also just season them for a quick snack.

>>12438146

for me, its cocaine and golfing.

>>12444697
>A few $1 bills and the rest is money McDonalds gives away as toy surprises.

>>12438146
Beer. I only drink about 3 beers a week on average, though, but I always try to buy something new, like $3-4 tall cans.
Also prosciutto.

>>12440020
>40$ eighth gone in 2days

If you're smoking an eighth in 2 days you should just buy ounces. You'll save a lot more money and won't have to pick up every couple of days.

If you're not using a smoker you're going to get mediocre meat.

Absolute worst case scenario, build one out of cinderblocks off craigslist in the backyard. It's not the same without smoke

>>12438179
Interesting. Y would a hobo want energy tho?

>>12438230
Can't wait til the kindling gets you, faggot.

Liquor. Canadian sin taxes, combined with the liquor cartel's taxes added on top of that, alongside shipping taxes. What would cost me 12 bucks in the U.S. costs 40 fucking bucks here.

>>12445374
>3 beers a week
Your liver must be incredibly soft and supple. Wisconsinite here, 6 pack a night
Thankfully, High Life is 5.99 a sixxer, but the nicer stuff is closer to 8.99 a sixxer. The cigarettes are more expensive than the drinking at this point.

Energy drinks and ordering in food. The energy drinks ate part of every visit to a store and it makes me feel like a diet alcoholic

Ordering in food is cause I'm too lazy occasionally to make my own, I can spend like 25€ on one meal alone, usually there's leftovers for the day after, but it's still excessively overpriced for food

Good coffee and good tea is one of the few things I am willing to spend extra money on.

Beer
Home-crafted beer is fucking good

>>12441882
I used to work at a pizza place and we had a woman who had a very specific sandwich order who would call in an order twice a day, every day.

It had like an entire paragraph of specifications about toasting it, extra condiments, condiments she doesn't like, and if anything was even slightly off she'd demand a new sandwich. She spent like $24 a day on sandwiches.

>>12438146
cigarettes honestly
a pack a day and each pack costs RM12.40, so theoretically I spend RM90 in a week, and RM380 in a month
for the record I make RM700 monthly

>>12438146
Making this dish.

>>12438146
i buy lunch at work. $6.50 m-f fuck shit fuck

Organic glutenfree soy

>>12438151
This it's 19 a lb at my local meat market but damn is it good

BRB. Busy suddenly understanding my poverty.

>>12438146
Burrito delivery, costs like 12 quid because of the deliveroo charges, but it's so fucking good and doesn't feel horrendously unhealthy since I don't get any extras or meat

>>12438146
What episode is this from? Fuck everyone who hasn't asked this question.

>>12446372
That's not too bad unless you're making minimum wage or have a lot of other expenses.

I live like an ascetic monk so I have no expensive habits since I stopped drinking

Just eating out in general. I don't take my lunch to work because I don't want to waste the time to make it. So I eat Chick Fil A for breakfast because it's near work, and Chipotle for lunch because it's near work, and that's like $20 a day on food, so $100 a week, so ~$5000 a year if I keep it up

Liquor. I go through a bottle of vodka on a good night.

>>12443152

>>12445717
I'm in Canada soon and was looking at ordering some whiskey online to ship where I'm staying and had a fucking heart attack when I saw how expensive it all is after currency conversion. How the fuck aren't you all rioting in the streets?

>>12445800
I can do 3L of beer a day, especially if working outside, no prob. But I refrain from going down that path. Oftentimes I buy 7% saisons or ales when I get the chance, get the extra kick.

>>12438146
Cocaine
