You can say so, but in fact, in my case, it’s because of debts. But what I was really interested in how other people deal with the situations I’ve described.

We had debt and paying for kids stuff so were on a super super tight budget at one point. I’d stick to staple foods like lentils, rice, potatoes. I’d boil potatoes for a dish and then save the water because that can be a soup base for the next meal. Some grocery places near us have dollar bags where they round up random veg that will be unfit to sell in a few days. I used to score a dollar bag with an onion a carrot, peppers, potatoes, and tomatoes in it. Perfect combo for a mixed veg curry for a dollar.
