I often read that eating out or getting take out all the time is a waste of money and that it's cheaper to cook at home.
I find that living alone it can often be a waste of money to buy groceries. Like the other day I felt like a hot dog and decided to make some at home, I ate two but didn't really get another craving for one for a while.
I generally won't want to eat 8 hot dogs in a week or even in two weeks and by that time they can get spoiled.
I end up throwing groceries out a lot, whereas when I do get takeout I eat all of it.
I just wonder if it's always true that cooking for yourself is cheaper.
I just find myself overwhelmed by chores on top of my work schedule and other hobbies, if I can eliminate washing dishes and cleaning my kitchen all the time, it seems worth the money I spend on takeout.
