how much do you spend on living per year?

<p>“how the hell do you spend only $120 on food?”</p>

<p>You just need to know how to shop and what to look for. For instance, instead of buying the more expensive $2-3 Wonderbread, I would buy Count Von Kempt bread, which is literally only .89 cents a loaf (IMO, it tastes the same).</p>

<p>I also shop at 99 Ranch Market (asian supermarket) and buy my vegetables there. The veggies there are significantly cheaper than at Ralphs and other American stores. There are also other cheap, and healthy things to eat and buy like tofu ($1 per box, can last 2 meals), homemade noodles (NOT ramen). Hell, even things like spaghetti can be cheap and last a while. One box of noodles (.99 cents) can last me like 3-4 meals. You can also add your own “toppings” to it. I usually add tomatoes and onions ($3), and hot link sausages ($4 for a pack of 12). Milk and juices aren’t very expensive either…</p>

<p>I don’t buy some things that others would. For instance, I don’t buy ice cream, cakes, yogurts, chips, popcorn, candy, soda, energy drinks etc.</p>
