What is your one big non-frugal expenditure and how do justify it to yourself?
What is your one non-frugal expenditure and how do justify it to yourself?
For me, it's Tide pods. My observation is that they do a superior job of cleaning to the extent that the cost is justified.
At one point, I was making the borax/fels naptha/washing soda mixture but it gave me a rash so I quit making it. My experience was that it was ineffective in my HE washer, left residue.
At another point when the kids were growing up, I was doubling coupons and getting a lot of liquid detergent that way. Some were inferior, like Sun, and some worked fine, like Gain. So I've tried a variety of liquids as well.
So that is my one non-frugal expenditure, and I believe it's worth it. Wondering what other people spend money on that might not be the most frugal choice. #finance source
