I finally got called out for my grocery budget by my own mom at Aldi last week

She saw me grabbing the store brand pasta and said 'you make enough money now, why are you being cheap?' and I had to explain that saving $1.50 per box adds up to like $60 a year. Has anyone else had family act like budgeting means you're broke?

Used to figure anyone pinching pennies was struggling but your math makes a lot of sense. Saving sixty bucks a year on pasta alone adds up fast.

Wait @rodriguez.felix SIXTY bucks just on pasta? That's insane I never even thought about it like that.
