Money-saving tips
I'm broke, you're broke, we're all broke. Even the smug guy on the balcony with the croissant hasn't got two AmEx gold cards to rub together these days. Tell everybody your schemes to save cash.

Student? Stay at home spouse? Unemployed singleton?
Good news: you can save money by devoting 3 to 4 days a week to grocery shopping, purchasing what you need from the local butcher, greengrocer, etc., and use the remainder of your copious free time to bake bread, boil leftovers for soup, cook large meals to freeze, make/mend your own clothes, build your own car, brew your own booze, and pedal an exercise bike to generate your own electricity.
Working full time to support your family? Shop at the supermarket, once a week (thus undermining local business and making yourself part of the problem), or sacrifice what remains of your scarce free time to somehow engage in some/all of the above and accept that you'll never see your loved ones. Failing that, take out a substantial life insurance policy then arrange your own death - your family won't notice you've gone, but will enjoy living off the payout (like the smug cunts listed above).

Blimey.
It's like I've threatened the status quo or something.
Honestly. How dare I suggest that people don't have to shop in supermarkets. I'm worse than Hitler!

Come now, that's not true.
Hitler was famous for prioritising munitions production over locally produced dairy.

What about people who work full time but work 4 on/4 off or continental shifts instead of Monday-Friday?

or people who manage to go to more than one shop on a Saturday morning,
and take their families with them, great day out for everyone, never seen a kid having a tantrum at an outdoor market.
Actually tell a lie. One time a kid almost had a crying fit because he wanted a bag of potatoes.

Yes, taking toddlers shopping is a joy,
and never leads to unplanned, impulse buys.

Are your children hooded when they go outside,
or are simple blinkers sufficient?

Continental shifts?
Not sure I'm best placed to offer lifestyle advice to tectonic plates.
