as a broke student i cant quite relate to that whatever food im buying im damn sure gonna eat it especially since i actually love cooking and it being cheaper and possibly more environment friendly like not wrapped in plastic etc is more important to me than getting something convenient besides i wanna do it myself unless its unwashed spinach the few times i got it i couldnt for the love of gods wash all the dirt off of it or a recipe needs a lot of nuts or something extremely tedious to prepare like that then yeah theres no way im gonna crack a bag of nuts myself i tried no  then if i need a planner i ask myself will i actually use it if the answer is no it doesnt matter if its £5 or £10 i aint got money for that if the answer is yes again - doesnt matter how much it costs that money cant get wasted on the other hand if i get something more pricey like art supplies sketchbooks extra pretty calendars theres actually a higher chance i wont use them out of fear of ruining or wasting them  and swallowing any sort of pills brings me weird satisfaction so even if im forgetful and cant build a habit easily i dont find it difficult to take my vitamins maybe im also partially driven by the fear of nutritional deficiency lol  though i do agree sometimes its better to get stuff that costs more but is of higher quality than cheap bullshit thats going to be too frustrating to use
