I know the feeling. I often prefer not to eat anywhere the costs are more than $10 and usually go for places around $5.
I wish to retire in a few years and they in a few decades.
- roland35 5y agoI feel like there are diminishing returns past $15 for a meal. I love pad Thai and normally that runs about $12 which I will gladly pay :)
- theartfuldodger 5y agoIt would be very difficult to get a lunch or dinner for $15 that was of any reasonable quality in my region. I do not live in an absurdly high COL area (CNY) What can you possibly be eating for $5 I think some people can treat eating as more utilitarian, while having a great meal or even a halfway decent meal is a true pleasure and an experience worth having as often as possible for myself. The small pleasure is what makes the grind feel worthwhile. I fully expect to walk out $25-$30 lighter after a basic entree/lunch, a drink and a tip, even if eating alone on a lunch break. A date with my wife ( on the low end) $70, bring out the whole family ($100) Do we have significantly different average prices. Maybe a pre-made gas station sandwich or single fast food sandwich could cost $5 A $5 meal sounds like a chore, an amazing roadside Shack find! or absolute trash ingredients not worth eating. How do you do it?
